Subject: Wheel of Time
Hey Renee & J,
Just wanted to let you know I’m really enjoying the podcast. Found you thru Ctrl Alt WoW. Interested to hear Renee’s thoughts on the Wheel of Time books as you go on. I’ve read thru the first 10 books several times and am currently reading the first one with the new author. I love this series. You’ll have to let me know which of the main characters you enjoy most. I think my favorite is probably Perrin.
Anyway, thanks for sharing your interests with us.
For the Horde! and the Rift.
Tedra

Sloppy Joe Recipe
So as we spoke about on our second episode of our podcast. J made sloppy joes and they were so delicious! They were very simple to make and just a little time. I doubled the recipe so that we would have leftovers. Also with the meat I put in half ground turkey and half ground beef to make it some what a little more healthy. If you give it a try let us know we’ll like to know how it turns out for you!
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
- 3/4 cup ketchup
- 3 teaspoons brown sugar
- salt to taste
- ground black pepper to taste
Directions
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, onion, and green pepper; drain off liquids.
- Stir in the garlic powder, mustard, ketchup, and brown sugar; mix thoroughly. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Recipe Exploration: Lasagna Cups
I was intrigued when I found a recipe for Lasagna Cupcakes. People were confused by the name so I just changed it to Lasagna Cups. The first batch I made had three layers and that way too much. The second batch had two layers was perfect so that’s what I recommend. These are so good and perfect for individual lunches and freezing for later.
- Cooking Spray
- 1 lb lean hamburger meat (can substitute ground turkey if desired)
- 18 wonton wrappers
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese , grated
- 3/4 cup parmesan cheese , grated
- 2/3 cup part skim milk ricotta cheese
- One cup of your favorite pasta sauce
- Italian Seasoning
- Black Pepper
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray 9 cups of a 12 serving muffin tin with the cooking spray
- Cook hamburger meat, season to taste, drain
- Reserve 8 tablespoons of Parmesan and 8 tablespoons of mozzarella—this will be the topping. The remaining cheese will be used in the lasagnas (note you can vary the amount of cheese to taste keeping in mind that the parmesan is salty, the mozzarella is sweet as well as salty and helps to hold the lasagnas together, and the ricotta is sweet and creamy).
- Start assembling the lasagnas. Line each cupcake mold with a round wonton wrapper. Put a little Parmesan, a little mozzarella, and a little ricotta into each mold. Add a sprinkle of Italian seasoning and black pepper. Top with a little meat and a spoonful of sauce. Repeat layers of wonton wrappers, cheeses, spices, meat and sauce, creating 2 layers in all, and ending with sauce. Sprinkle each lasagna with reserved Parmesan and mozzarella.
- Bake until the lasagnas are nicely browned, about 20 minutes.
- Let cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then run a knife around the edges and remove from pan.
