Hopkins Community Education

The MN Hotdish (elsewhere called a casserole) is a one-dish supper or side dish baked in your oven using a single piece of cookware. We will use fresh ingredients (no canned soups) and so easy preparation for a family meal or make impressive elegant company fare for friends or crowd-pleasing recipes for potluck. Many of these hotdishes can be made ahead, chilled, then baked. AND there is minimal dishwashing! You Betcha! Join us to create up to 15 sensational dishes including: Beef, Pork and Sauerkraut; Pork Loin with Dried Apricots and Cherries; Beef and Spinach (or Broccoli); Eggplant and Cheese, Chicken Cobbler with Carrots, Mushrooms and Peas; Lentils and Vegetables; and Baked Penne Pasta with Chicken, Broccoli and Mushroom just to name a few. Our recipes are enhanced by a blend of diverse ethnic influences to create a sensational food, easy to prepare, a pleasure to serve and a delight to eat. This is a friendly reminder that the instructor will require a supply fee of $16 per enrollment at the start of the class. Please bring exact cash.

From those northern countries of Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland, we will create an assortment of superb entrees and desserts balanced with soup and salad. A larger class will include 14 receives with fewer ones with a smaller group. Apple stuffed pork loin, Sweish meatballs, salmon with dill and lemon, cold poached salmon, carrot casserole, spinach soup, pineapple beet salad and cheese sticks. We can't forget the desserts: rice pudding, toska cake, finnish nut logs, raspberry ribbons, oatmeal wafers and famous fruit soup. This class has an $17 supply fee per enrollment to be paid to the instructor at the start of the first class.
