Hi Jeanne,
I searched everywhere that I could think of, but had no success with
a specific copycat for Applebee's spread. Lots of people have posted
requests for it on various message boards around the Internet, but
they had no replies. The below recipes may be similar, or maybe you
can adapt one of them.
Phaed
Tuscan Cream Cheese Spread
20 servings 30 min 30 min prep
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped (save the juice)
1/3 cup chopped black olives
8 green onions, chopped
3 ounces sun-dried tomatoes, softened and chopped
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
In a medium bowl, mix cream cheese, garlic and salt; stir and blend in
artichokes and olives.
Add green onions, tomatoes, parsley and chives; gently mix together.
Refrigerate for several hours or overnight (if possible) to blend flavors.
If mixture is too thick, stir in some of the artichoke juice.
Bring to room temperature and serve with water crackers or other crispy bread.
Or, you can add more of the artichoke juice to make it more of a dip consistency,
and serve with cut up veggies.

Hello Michelle,
I cannot find any recipes at all from that show. Sorry. Perhaps the below
recipe is similar.
Phaed
Kielbasa Skillet
1 lb. Kielbasa sausage
1 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 med. onion, sliced
4 c. chopped cabbage
4 med. carrots, sliced
1 lg. potato, peeled and chopped
1 c. chicken broth
1 clove garlic, minced
Slice sausage. Place oil in large skillet and saute sausage, onion, and
garlic until onion is wilted but not brown. Add remaining ingredients,
cover and cook until vegetables are tender and most of the liquid is
absorbed - about 30 minutes. 4-6 servings.
I have lost a recipe for yeast bread
It was originally call Kentucky White Bread and had several variations...
my favorite was the whole wheat. It also had rye. Some of the ingredients
included...buttermilk, yeast, lard. It made two loaves, but I usually
tripled it. The whole wheat had molasses, the rye had honey.
Thanks for looking for it. I found it in the late 60's early 70's before 1976.

There is a recipe with that name here: Kentucky White Bread
In the 1930s, French author Georges Simenon created a fictional detective with
a penchant for fine food named Inspector Maigret. Inspector Maigret's wife is an
excellent cook, and French chef Robert J. Courtine put together a cookbook
based on the dishes mentioned in the series:
"Madame Maigret's Recipes" Presented by Robert J. Courtine
Ragout de Boeuf au Paprika
* Place 2 Tb. of butter in a Dutch oven. Add 1/4 lb. of diced fat trimmed
from fresh ham and cook until the fat has melted.
* Cut 2 1/2 lbs of rump of beef into 1 - 2 inch pieces. Chop 1 lb. onions
coarsely
* Place a layer of meat in the bottom of the pan. Salt it and cover it with
half the chopped onions. Add 1/2 tsp. of paprika. Add 3/4 cup of hot water.
Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer covered for 2 hours and 45 minutes.
* At the end of cooking time add 1 cup of heavy cream. Bring to a boil,
