Sausage Bake (6-20-2017)

Mom's Tips

June 20th, 2017 by Jim Field

  • 1 1/2 lbs. sausage
  • 2 cups sharp cheese (cubed)
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 3/4 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 1/2 cups seasoned croutons
  • 1 cup mushrooms, drained
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/4 cup milk

Brown and drain the sausage.  Add the cheese, beaten eggs, mustard and milk, then the seasoned croutons.  Mix and place in a 9″ x 13″ pan sprayed with Pam.  Refrigerate over night.  In the morning, mix and pour 1 can mushroom soup, milk and drained mushrooms over the sausage dish.  Bake at 350 degrees for an hour.

Do not stir in the mushroom soup and milk, just pour over top.  Check the outside edges if done.  The milk will look wet, but this is how it should look.

Record ticket sales reported for Solheim Cup

Sports

June 20th, 2017 by admin

Officials report record ticket sales for August’s Solheim Cup. The Des Moines Golf and Country Club will host the women’s version of the Ryder Cup which will feature three days of competition between the top golfers from the United States and the best from Europe.

Chris Garrett is the tournament director. Des Moines Golf hosted the 1999 U-S Senior Open which shattered attendance records.

Julie Inkster is making her second run as captain of the U-S team after leading the Americans to victory in Germany two years ago. Inkster says the event more closely resembles a team sport than a golf tournament.

Inkster says the team aspect and the chance to represent your country makes the Solheim Cup an emotional event.

Three days of competition begins August 18.
