Heinz 59 Sauce/Glaze by Bob Vincent

This is adapted from a recipe on the back of a bottle of Heinz 57 sauce. The original called for the sauce and honey only. I decided to jazz it up a bit by adding some more ingredients. Hence the name Heinz 59 Sauce. The result works as a different sauce/glaze for almost any kind of protein. I used it on smoked chicken thighs as…

Cherokee Fry Bread by Ruth Stalker

Passed down Generation after Generation to all young Indian Girls to attract a Husband. In the "Old Days" the better the Fry Bread, the better the Husband.

Sourdough Bread (San Francisco Style - No Yeast Added) by myra byanka

If you're not a sourdough baker, what follows may be tedious. I know the yeasts my starter ("Wild Thing") caught in Texas are not the ones native to the Bay Area, but this bread tastes just as good. I employed the dough hooks on my recently purchased garage sale old Sunbeam Mixmaster, as the knead time is 10 minutes. This…

King's Bread Pudding by Char

This is the most wonderful bead pudding . The King's Bread adds an unexpected touch of smoothness to the pudding. I like to bake mine in individual ramekins for easy serving to guest, drizzling the steamy sauce liberally over the top. Add a fresh strawberry with a spring of mint to the plate..stunning!

Cajun Crowder Beans by Amos Miller

Also known as Crowder peas, these delicious little fellas can often be found in frozen form at the store. These are fresh picked right here in Michigan and, like fava beans and so many other seasonal treats, we rush them to the table. Crowders are really a 'Southern' treat and I first enjoyed them when visiting relatives in West…

You can also use Twix, Snickers, or Milky Way. YUMMY!!

Grilled Shrimp by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a very tasty grilled shrimp recipe. The ingredients don't sound like they would go together that well, but the result is fantastic. Try this summer on the grill. My kids loved it..with 9 year old Kyle finishing off 2 whole skewers!

Avengers Themed Birthday Party Food by Denise Sherin

My son turned 8 and wanted Marvel Avengers as his party theme. So we made party food that represented the Avengers characters.... Ironman, Thor, Hulk, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Captain America! The kids loved it. It was a huge hit!

Fresh Pumpkin Bread by myra byanka

Moody Diner's Easy Peanut Butter Pie by myra byanka

Five ingredients for a tasty icebox pie. I used chunky peanut butter in the filling and chocolate chips in the crust. Took it to a birthday, and it was a big hit. .

Old-Fashioned Raisin Walnut Spice Bars by Salad Foodie

This vintage bar cookie recipe should be included in the Oldie-But-Goodie Cookie Hall of Fame. Great for a brunch treat, snack or coffee break, it is dated 1960 but is timeless in appeal. Easily tweaked to reduce fat (swap out half the oil with equivalent amount of applesauce) or reduce sugar (sub non-nutritive sweetener…

Hannah's Caramel Bundt Cake by Kelly Christensen

This is so easy to make and will stay fresh on the countertop for two days after making but it will likely not last that long.

POLISH CABBAGE NOODLES by Phyllis Munro

This is an interesting combination of flavors. My whole family enjoys this dish. I usually make it a couple of times a year. It is a great dish to make when you are pressed for time.
