  1. One one of my lists, someone posted a "Colonel Sanders" corn muffin
    recipe. (Thanks, Al!) I wanted corn muffins, but not sweet ones, and I
    don't keep much milk in the house, so I tweaked the recipe (my
    variations below).

    After I put the muffins in the oven (along with the eggplant I'm
    roasting for tomorrow's baba ganouj), I sauteed an onion in olive oil,
    in my new pressure cooker. Then I added some (that's the exact
    quantity) soaked navy beans, a couple cups of homemade veggie broth,
    some water, a garlic clove, a pinch of coriander powder, and several
    cups of collard greens. They're coming up to pressure now, and they and
    the muffins should be done around the same time. It smells really good
    in here. I'll let you know how it turns out.

    Corn Muffins

    Recipe By :Colonel Harland Sanders
    Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:15
    Categories : Cornbread Muffins

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1 cup All-purpose flour
    1 cup Cornmeal
    1/2 cup Sugar (I used 1/4 cup)
    1 tablespoon Baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon Salt
    1/2 cup Butter -- softened (I used Earth Balance)
    1 cup Half-and-half (I used soymilk)
    1 large Egg -- lightly beaten (I happened to have eggs
    around -- otherwise, I probably would have completely eliminated the
    sugar and used a banana in place of the egg.

    Preheat oven to 400ºF. Grease muffin tins for 9 muffins. (I used six
    ungreased silicone muffin tins)

    In a large bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking
    powder, and salt. Add butter and mix until crumbly. In a separate bowl,
    mix the half and half with the egg and fold in the liquid mixture into
    the flour mixture. Spoon into tins filling to the top. Bake about 25
    minutes.

    The muffins are nearly perfect (I will use a little less margarine next
    time). The baba ganouj is transcendent, even warm. I bet it'll be great
    tomorrow. The beans had too much water in them when they were done, but
    the doneness was great, so I drained them and added a little margarine
    and garlic powder. Yum, but the greens were overdone, so I'll do them
    separately next time, or add them after the cooking is all done.

    Very yummy dinner.
