I've had a blueberry geletin made with canned (pie) blueberries
and cool whip. I'm not sure what else is included, but it's
always a big hit. HELP!!
Hi Kat,
I found a few of these, but none with Cool Whip. I did find one with Dream Whip, though. see below.

Subject: Breakfast Froth
Hi Unc,
Love your web site. I'm looking for a recipe for a breakfast
drink called Breakfast Froth that includes milk and orange juice
and is made in the blender. My sister and I served it at a
birthday brunch for our mother last year and it was a big hit.
We couldn't make it fast enough. We lost the recipe and would
like to serve it again. Hope you can find it.
Thanks
Mellie
Hi Mellie,
There was nothing listed anywhere as "breakfast froth", but I found several recipes listed as "orange froth".
This drink is basically the "orange julius" that is sold at "Orange Julius" restaurants. Yum. It originally
contained a couple of raw eggs or egg whites, but most recipes have dropped the eggs. Raw eggs aren't really
good for you, and create a risk of food poisoning as well. Below are two recipes. Vary the sugar to taste
Phaed
Orange Froth
Ingredients:
6 oz orange juice concentrate
1 cup water
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup milk or milk substitute
sugar to taste
8-10 ice cubes

Orange Froth
6 oz. Frozen juice concentrate (or other frozen fruit juice combination concentrates)
1 cup milk
1 cup cold water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
12 ice cubes, crushed
Place all ingredients in a blender and process at high speed for
30 seconds or until ice is completely crushed fine.
Serve immediately with mint or other garnish.
Serves 6
-----------------
Orange Julius
2/3 C. orange juice concentrate
1 C. water
1 C. milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla

Subject: Outback Steakhouse Steak Seasoning
Do you have the recipe for the Outback Steakhouse Steak
Seasoning used on the steaks at the Outback Steakhouse?
It has something like 13 ingredients and they are usually
stingy about giving up their recipes. I'm looking for
their cabernet sauce for the rack of lamb as well.
Hello Eileen,
I found two copycat recipes for their steak seasoning and one for their cabernet sauce. See below.
I've never tried any of these, so I can't vouch for them.
Phaed
Outback Steakhouse Marinade
Notes:
After many tastings, we were surprised that the seasonings
on the steak were not complex, as what we once thought.
Ingredients:
1 C. Scottish Ale
2 tsp. Brown Sugar
1/2 tsp. Seasoned Salt
1/4 tsp. Ground Black Pepper
1/4 tsp. MSG
Preparation:
Place your favorite cut of steak in a shallow pan and pour ale on
steak and marinate for 1 hour in refregerator. Remove steak from
ale and mix dry ingredients together and rub steak on both sides.
Let marinate with dry ingredients for 1/2 hour.
Preheat a skillet or grill to med high heat add vegatable spray or
vegetable oil and braize to perfection.. This can be made at home!
My personal preference is to braze the steak in butter, not the
vegetable oil. We really liked the use of Ale NOT BEER for the
marinade. These amounts will handle 1 1/2 lbs of beef nicely.
------------------------------
Outback Steakhouse Steak Seasoning
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
1 pkg. Italian dressing mix
1 can cola
Mix the packages of the mixes together, sprinkle generously
on steaks, then pour cola over steaks. Marinate for a while, then grill.
-----------------------------------------------
Outback Steakhouse Rack Of Lamb Cabernet Sauce
1 1/3 C. cabernet (do not use anything else)
1/4 C. butter
2 1/2 T. flour
1/4 C. fresh parsley
6 C. au ju sauce (The drippings from roasting beef or lamb)
2 T. lamb seasoning
1 T. garlic powder
In a bowl mix 1/3 cup of wine with flour, set aside. Put
remaining wine, broth, parsley, lamb seasoning and garlic
powder in saucepan . Bring to a GENTLE boil, then turn heat
down and reduce about 4-5 minutes. Stir in flour mixture.
While you are reducing liquid, brown butter in another pan
(Don't just melt butter brown it, do not burn ). When you
have finished reducing, add butter and mix well. By this
time your sauce should have a semi-thick look to it.
When you are finished cooking this, you should have 7 cups.

Hi Nikki,
You can buy "Vino Cotto" or "Cooked Wine" here:
California Flavors
or you can make it yourself with the below recipe.
Phaed
Cooked wine, must - Vin cotto, mosto
This is made in the country side with the non-fermented juice of grapes
pressed for wine called mosto, must. Since this is not availbale in town you
can make it with grapes. They must be very very sweet ones. You need several
bunches of sweet red or white grapes.
Wash and dry the grapes and separate them. Press them and filter the juice
so that it is clear with no pips, filaments or skin. Simmer the juice for
several hours stirring often with a wooden spoon. It is ready when it is
dense and runny like honey.
