Brownie Trifle

(1 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

The official title of this dessert,the recipe for which I cut out of a magazine, is "Jell-O and Cool Whip Easy Chocolate Trifle," but my niece simplified it at our family 4th of July get-together as "Brownie Trifle." [p.s. it... MORE»

Courtney's Pizza Quesadillas

Posted by ckmclements  

Thrown together for a snack this weekend, as I had some bits and pieces to get rid of. It turned out pretty well, if a bit messy. I tried 2 tbsp spaghetti sauce, but that made it too saucy, so I cut it to one. It was an easy and tasty way to get... MORE»

Mom's Double Layer Chocolate Pie

Posted by ckmclements  

According to Mom's recipe card, this is ready to serve in 5 minutes. I haven't made it yet, but anything involving Cool Whip and Chocolate pudding fine with me. The prep time does not include the time it takes to thaw out the tub of Cool Whip. MORE»

Courtney's Cream Soda Coconut Delight (Alcoholic)

Posted by ckmclements  

So here I was, on a gray Saturday, with a tasty bottle of cream soda, and I thought to myself, "Hm...I wonder what would happen if I added a little coconut rum to this?" The result was this tasty, mildly alcoholic beverage that I felt... MORE»

Courtney's Mystery Italian Chicken Breasts

(1 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

The "mystery" here is where the recipe came from. I wrote it down who knows when, from who knows where, and it's been hanging on my refrigerator for a couple of years. Seemed like a good plan to put it on here so I could take the paper... MORE»

Chicken Pasta Casserole

(1 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

I have absolutely no idea where this came from, but it's pretty darn good. It sounds similar to (but sufficiently different from) my most popular recipe I've posted on here, Courtney's Favorite Chicken Casserole. If you can't find mini lasagna noodles (I couldn't),... MORE»

Grandma's Sugar Cookies

Posted by ckmclements  

Exactly WHOSE grandma, I do not know, since this was taken from an April 1988 Ladies' Home Journal. Claims to have 55 calories per cookie, but who knows? Prep time does NOT include refrigeration time. MORE»

Twinkie Pancakes

Posted by ckmclements  

I bought The Twinkie Cookbook today, and this recipe was in it. This recipe was created by Jerry Ferrill, and I think it looks pretty good, but I haven't tried it yet. Hopefully soon! (p.s. If you're a vegetarian, my formerly vegetarian... MORE»

Courtney's "picky Eater's Special" Stew

Posted by ckmclements  

I'm a pretty picky eater, and even more so when I was a kid. This is a stew my mom made that I was guaranteed to eat every time. There is nothing in this even the pickiest eater could object to. Also, it's really easy. Darn near impossible to... MORE»

Karen's Chicken and White Sauce

(1 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

Received this recipe at a bridal shower when I got married. I'd say the fat content could be cut some by using lower-fat versions of most of the dairy products, but don't skimp on the butter. MORE»

Three Cheese Baked Ziti

(2 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

Taken from the Anita's Recipes website, which notes that this recipe was adapted from Lipton, Inc. I haven't made it yet because it serves TWELVE, although obviously the ingredients could be cut to serve less. Sounds pretty tasty to me!!! MORE»

Fruit Salad With Strawberry Dressing

Posted by ckmclements  

I cut this out of something. Not sure what, but it must have to do with the Reynolds corporation because this recipe, instead of just saying "8x8 pan" specifies "Reynolds Pot Lux cookware 8x8 pan." Whatever. I just know this... MORE»

Crock Pot Pizza Rigatoni

(2 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

Made this for a family reunion several years back. Tasty stuff, but definitely something you'd want to save for occasions like family reunions, church potlucks--anything where there will be LOTS of people, because it makes a solid ton. This... MORE»

Martie Shull's Creole/Cajun Spice Blend

A recipe received from one of the best cooks I've ever met in my life! Since this is a spice blend, I have no idea how many "servings" there would be, but I had to put SOMETHING. MORE»

Mississippi Mud Cookies

(1 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

We used to make these all the time growing up. I keep hearing them called "no-bake cookies," but this is the name my mom always called them. Even if they don't set up and harden like they should, the chocolate goo tastes mighty fine... MORE»

10-Minute Baked Ziti

(3 reviews) Posted by ckmclements  

The title "10-minute" is a little misleading, because the 10 minutes refers to prep time only, but that's the title on the recipe card! It has to bake a whole other hour after that. Still, I do love me some pasta with cheese and sauce... MORE»

Peppermint Mousse

Posted by ckmclements  

This recipe was cut out of a cooking magazine my mother subscribed me to right after I got married (Quick Cooking? Taste of Home? I can't remember.) Sounds tasty and Christmassy, but I haven't tried it yet. Maybe this year! MORE»

Typed recipe stapled inside my grandmother's handwritten spiral notebook of Weight Watchers recipes from the 70s or 80s. I haven't tried it, but a notation in her handwriting in red ink says "Good," so we'll hope she's right. MORE»
