 You can find this recipe at Cape May Cafe Beach Club at Disney. I haven't had the pleasure of eating at that restaurant but this sounds delicious!

1 pound Shrimp, chopped

2 pounds Cheese Tortellini

3 cups Seafood Béchamel Sauce

3 cups Brandy Tomato mix

1 Tablespoon Fresh Chives, small chop

To taste Salt and Pepper


Method of Preparation:


To the Béchamel Sauce, add Brandy Tomato Mix, keep warm.


Drop Tortellini in Pasta Pot


Sauté shrimp until hot.


Add heated Tortellini and Béchamel Brandy sauce to Shrimp and heat until 165°f.


Pour into an oval pan and garnish with fresh chopped chives.


Seafood Bechamel Sauce:

¾ cup Flour

¾ cup Butter

1 cup Heavy Cream

1 cup Milk

1 cup Clam juice

To taste Salt

To taste White Pepper


Method of Preparation:


Melt the butter in the kettle and add flour.


Mix thoroughly and cook for 5 minutes. Do not let it burn or brown!


Whisk in the cream, milk, and clam juice and allow to cook 15 minutes or until thickened.


Simmer for 10 minutes.


Be sure to strain.


Cool.


Season at table


Lobster Tomato Base (Brandy Tomato Mix)


Ingredients:

1 container, 16 ounces, Lobster Base

2 pounds Tomato Paste

64 ounces Brandy

This makes 1 gallon (you definitely don't need to make that much)


Method of Preparation:

Incorporate all ingredients with a whip or burre mixer.


This is a very indepth recipe, I would need to play around with the ingredients to have the right amount and I would personally serve on a special occasion not just for any dinner.

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

  The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What  you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.

Fall Simmering Potpourri

I love the smell of fall, I even like fall itself.  I just don't like what follows... winter!  However I love walking in my home and smelling  the fall scents that are so warm and inviting. Making this simmering potpourri is extremely easy! What you'll need: Tangerine or orange peels Cloves Cinnamon sticks or ground cinnamon Vanilla extract Pumpkin pie spice Water Small crockpot, saucepan or tea kettle You can choose how much you want to put in  of what, there really is no magic amount. I normally put  in more of my favorite scents. If using a tea kettle  or a sauce pan keep in mind you will have to keep  adding water to it. If you use a crockpot you  will not have to keep adding water and you can keep  it on even when you're asleep. Some other ideas that you can add are: Apple juice (instead of water) Cranberries Nutmeg Anise (one of my favorites) Dried fruit Coffee beans Have you ever made a simmering potpourri pot?  What do you normal...
