This recipe is a perfect with only four simple ingredients. One thing that you may want to watch out for in this recipe is the sweetness. Plain yogurt can be a bit tart so you will want to test the mixture for sweetness before freezing it. -- posted by Mazvii

You can also serve the beans without the cheese and let guests add cheese when serving. -- posted by KiminyMe

Fruity Crunchy Yogurt Banana Pops

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:21:47 -0500

My sister clipped this for me either from a family magazine or one of those brand circulars. This looks like a great way to get your kids to eat fruit without them thinking it's fruit. ;) And it's just as adult-friendly as well as kid-friendly! I made a tray of these and couldn't resist, and now I must share it. In addition to a great dessert and snack, they also make a great on-the-go breakfast food that doesn't seem like breakfast food! :) Be sure to have some wooden craft/popsicle sticks handy, you'll need 8 for this. Cook time is freeze time. -- posted by the80srule

We are our mothers! This recipe has been passed down for so many generations that I don't know where it began!

So i ran out of eggs in the middle of baking cookies...so i improvised. i tried a few different methods that each had a distinct flavor. this is the recipe that i found worked the best, but you can very it to your taste as well. 1/2 mashed banana instead of the applesauce gives a great taste as well! -- posted by seabeewife401

Double the recipe for two cans of sliced carrots if you wish. You may use any sugar variety including Splenda blend brown sugar. I had requests to serve more than one can at the next meal.

American Sour Cream Dip

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:46:31 -0500

This is the easiest, tastiest dip and surprisingly uses packets of dried vegetable soup mix (yes, cup a soups!) to season the sour cream. I had it at a buffet in the states once and it was served in a hollowed out round loaf of bread. It looked great but it tasted even better.

It always makes me laugh when I hear people saying Jalapeño with 'J' and not a 'H' sound. It reminds me of days gone by when I used to say it! Whatever the case these are just gorgeous, the heat of the Jalapeno cooled by the cheese against the foil of the crisp tortilla is just perfect -- posted by robd16

This luxury jam has a Christmassy feel to it but not so much so that you couldn't enjoy it year round. There aren't many fruits that I prefer cooked, but this is one of them and its great spread on buttered toast. If you don't like cinnamon then by all means leave it out but it does complement the plum flavour without taking over. Jam making is easy and fun so have a go. . . -- posted by robd16

Compliment Jar--Kid's Style

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 02:27:09 -0500

From spatulatta.com Everyone needs to be told how well they're doing or how wonderful they are. Moms are no different. Sometimes mom might need a compliment when she's feeling blue or just has too much work to get done. Here's a gift that will keep on giving all year long. You can help perk mom up by making this compliment jar. Fill it with 20 compliments that she can have whenever she needs one. http://www.spatulatta.com/recipes/6-mothers-day-2008/27-compliment-jar Because RZ would not recognize QUART JAR WITH LID or SCISSORS or 1 PHOTO OF YOURSELF, I am putting it here. ASK PERMISSION BEFORE CUTTING UP THE PHOTO. This basic idea could be varied easily-why not for older people in the nursing home with knock knock jokes or something? But use an unbreakable container instead of glass. Or maybe tasks that you are reasonably able to do? The spatulatta site also had some excellent lessons for teachers, e.g. an insect body lesson. -- posted by WiGal

Grandma Velna and Betty Crocker's Pie Crust

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:28:49 -0500

This is a single pie crust recipe for one 9 inch pie crust from Betty Crocker The key is rolling the crust between the wax paper so as to not dry it out by adding flour. We use the butter-flavored shortening. That allows for the flakiness of the crust and the yummy flavor of butter. Also, when baking the pie, I suggest covering the crust with aluminum foil until 10 minutes before the pie is done. That helps keep the crust from burning. -- posted by ShortChef2009

Perfect Cake-Mix Cupcakes

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 23:48:16 -0500

This recipe is from the book "Hello, Cupcake!" by Karen Tack and Alan Richardson. You may have seen this pair on Paula Deen's cooking show. They did not merely frost their cupcakes, they decorated 3 of them to look like a Thanksgiving dinner: the turkey, the mashed potatoes and gravy, and the carrots and peas. They commented at the time that they always use buttermilk rather than the water called for on the box, to give their cupcakes a fresher, more homemade flavor. They also used more eggs than called for on the box to give the cupcakes a firmer structure that can stand up to more decorating without tearing. Cupcakes made this way may be made a day ahead as they stay moist if wrapped in plastic. They also suggested that you use cake mixes for cupcakes that do not have pudding in the mix and avoid lighter cake mixes (such as angel food) which would not hold up when decorated. Using these hints, they baked cupcakes that Paula Deen just raved over!! -- posted by Lorraine of AZ
