Welcome to WASP Wednesday! This, just in time for the boarding school send off parties, week bff Muffy and I are sharing WASP recipes!!
Like everyone else on the planet WASPs too love good food! WASPs love to dine at the club and the top restaurants in the city, but home cooking done by the actual WASP is kept a bit more simple. In the WASP household easy recipes tend to be best as they can survive being passed down through generations (from Mimzie to Sissy or from butler John to butler Charles). The fewer ingredients and steps the better chance that the recipe will continousy turn out.An easy recipe that mother taught me at a very young age is her Onion Souffle. The recipe is nothing special, but it is as delicious as ever! Mother has made this all over the world and it is always a hit. Mother did actually make this for my Taft send off party way back in 1999 (ten years ago this September little Hopsy was headed off!) and ever since I left home I have continued to bake onions souffles for events and no one ever tires of it. Follow this simple recipe and have a hit WASP dish at your next gathering!
3 (8 ounce) Packages of softened Cream Cheese
2 cups Parmesan Cheese
1/2 Cup Mayonnaise (WASPs tend to find MANY uses for mayo!)
1 Package Frozen Chopped Onions
Lay onions out on paper towels and press to remove all access water. Immediately after mix all ingredients in a bowl until they are well combined. Transfer them to a pie or casserole dish (passed down from mother or grandmother!) and transfer to the over. Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes- make sure the souffle is heated all the way through before removing it. Serve hot with Ritz crackers and enjoy!

I always make that recipe- sometimes mix it up by adding some artichokes too. Yum!
My WASPY dinner last night was Dover Sole.

Sounds yummy! CHEERS! Michele
Oh my, I grew up eating this stuff! Very good and easy to make.
Both of you & Muffy's recipes today are TOO fun! I love it. This sounds delish, thanks!
Sounds delicious - perfect party food!
Hi Hopsy,
To answer your question, yes I did like the Alina dress. I think it ran more true to size than some of the items from Spring/Summer. The material was a thicker stiffer material which isn't my favorite, but overall the dress itself was very cute! I didn't know it comes in another print! I can't wait to see it on you! :)

A friend make a variation of this, and I love knowing that it will always be there when we have Girls Night in! YUM!
Oh, my! Does this recipe bring back memories!!!
I have recipe boxes FUll of "WASP" recipes-passed down through the generations. Some of them are just AWFUL, but we continue to make them out of tradition:)...
Thanks for the memories, Hopsy!!! Miss chatting with you!
Oh thank you for sharing Hopsy. I'll definitely be serving this at my next soiree!
It looks easy. I'm thinking that maybe even I can manage it.
my mom and i make this too...love it
I thought the big joke is that WASP food is so bland! No matter, a friend's mother used to make a version of this (equal parts mayo, parm, and artichokes), and goodness knows we ate a TON of it.
