	Southwestern Mac & Cheese by Patti Fisher Southwestern Mac & Cheese, we have to laugh, of all the recipes we get asked for from gourmet to down home, what we get the most requests for is macaroni and cheese. Our date night was coming up so I asked Ken what he was in the mood for thinking he would say steak or ribs. Nope, he wanted a creamy mac & cheese with a little flavor…	1 vote 2065 views
	Lotta Cheese Cheese Burger by Patti Fisher We got a complaint from some friends that when they go out for burgers the meat is paper thin and the cheese, if you can find any, is tasteless.

Not only was there 2…	1 vote 2827 views
	Garlic Lovers Chicken by Patti Fisher Chicken was on sale this week and Patti found a beauty, it was over 7lbs. so we had plenty left over for an awesome spontaneous picnic the next day with cold chicken.

	Canned Apple Pie Filling/ Apple Crisp by J. Gino Genovesi Apples are a very versatile fruit. Apples are used in many pastries, pies and salads. I think apples are used more in pies than in other way. . It save lots of time to have a "done" product for use. This canned recipe is both economical and good. Try this recipe and let me know if you like it.	1 vote 1 comment 18735 views

Easy ingredients, easy to prepare.…	4 votes 1 review 14 comments 13522 views

	Gramma Lund's Limpa Bread by Amos Miller My paternal grandfather emigrated to the US in 1912 bringing with him his mother's family recipe for the incredibly delicious - almost cake-like - limpa of the southern Swedish countryside.
