Cheesy Lamb Cups! And official new bloginess!

So, after much thinking and planning, I am today ready to introduce the new recipe ranking system!  
We're going to pretend that each recipe is a D&D character, with specific modifiers:

Strength modifier = how filling the dish is

Intelligence modifier = how hard it is to make (the easier it is to make, the higher the score will be)

Wisdom modifier = how likely it is that you will have all the necessary ingredients on hand  (again, the higher the score, the more likely it is that you’ll have everything)

Charisma modifier = how good it tastes!

Constitution modifier = how good for you it is

All of these catagories will be on a 1-4 scale.  They will then be added together to create a final score out of 20.

So, to inaugurate my new system...I present:  Cheesy Lamb Cups!

First, let's meet the ingredients!

For the lamb cups:

Onion soup mix, bread crumbs, evaporated milk, ground lamb, cheddar cheese

In a small bowl, combine the soup mix, bread crumbs, and evaporated milk.

Crumble lamb over mixture and mix well.

Press half the mixture into 6 greased muffin cups, filling each half full.

Press one cube of cheddar cheese into each cup.

Cover with remaining lamb mixture.

Bake at 375 for about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, for the sauce:

Cheddar cheese soup, Worcestershire sauce, and milk

Mix all three ingredients in a small saucepan.  Heat.

Serve over lamb cups.

Recipe:

.5 envelope onion soup mix

.3 cup dry bread crumbs

.5 cup evaporated milk

1 pound ground lamb

2 ounces cheddar cheese, cut into 6 cubes

1 can condensed cheddar cheese soup

.5 cup milk

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1)  In a small bowl, combine first three ingredients.  Crumble lamb over mixture and mix well.

2)  Press half of mixture into 6 greased muffin cups, filling each half full.  Press one cube of cheese into the center of each cup.  Cover with remaining lamb mixture; mound slightly.  Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

3)  For sauce, combine soup, milk, and Worcestershire sauce in a small saucepan.  Heat through; stir until smooth.  Serve over lamb cups.

Strength Modifier:  

 

We were still a tad bit hungry after this meal, even though we each had 3 lamb cups!

Intelligence modifier:

This was ridiculously easy to put together.

Wisdom modifier:

We had pretty much everything on hand - except the lamb.  But now even Walmart sells lamb, so it definitely falls into the doable category.

Charisma modifier:

It was a little bland.  If I make it in the future, there will definitely be more spices mixed in with the lamb.

Constitution modifier:

It was pretty greasy, and full of cheese.

Overall score:

It wasn't horrible, but it's probably not something we'll make again.  Regular meatloaf probably would have been more satisfying and probably healthier as well.

And a HUGE thanks to Mr. Chris Mcnair for the inspiration for the theme of this blog!  There are a few more little things I'm going to add, but they will probably come at a later time!
