Chuckwagon CornbreadBake this recipe in a baking pan or skillet. Add a bit more sugar, if you have a sweet tooth. If presentation isn't important, I usually pour the batter into an aluminum-lined pan for easy cleanup. To store leftovers, wrap in plastic, then foil, and refrigerate. This cornbread is very moist, so let cool a bit before slicing. |

Rhubarb CakeThis recipe was previously called "German Rhubarb Cake." I had this recipe for years, I think I got it from a family friend. I removed the word "German" because any German Rhubarb Cake recipes I have seen, all had a meringue topping. I'm thinking this was their adapted version because of the coconut and walnuts in the topping.… |

Death by Chocolate TrifleThis dessert should be called Suicide is Painless! I amde this in a trifle bowl as shown, but I think I would use a glass 9x11 dish nest time. After serving up a few portions the dessert started to fall in on itself and I was up to my elbows in sticky sweetness. It was surprisingly very light, and folks came back forcseconds and… |

Make-over Spaghetti & Shrimp SaladOriginally mayo was the dressing for this salad recipe from a friend long ago, but I decided to give it a make-over. Adding a few new veggies and seasonings, and subbing an oil-based dressing, made it lighter and brighter. The recipe makes enough for a crowd or potluck, so cut down by one third or two thirds if needed. |
