Bethany’s Jell-O Salad

We always have this at Thanksgiving. It is one of Bethany’s favorites, so we started calling it Bethany’s salad. It calls for apricot Jell-O, but that is hard to find. If you can’t find apricot, use orange. It also has cream cheese, grated carrots, pineapple, and pecans. This photo is not the best…will try to get a better one later on.

Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing

This recipe blends chicken and stuffing into one dish.

Jack in the Box Tacos

You know the taco. The infamous taco that everyone makes fun of, but likes to eat anyway. While the real Jack in the Box tacos are actually soy, this recipe calls for ground beef and refried beans.

Strawberry Pretzel

This recipe came from my grandmother, who got the recipe from Faye Cox. I don’t know who Faye Cox is, but this is a Jello dessert with several layers. It is probably actually called Strawberry Pretzel Salad. When I first read the title (when transferring recipes here) I thought it was a soft pretzel with strawberry flavor.

Sugar Cookies

Ah….the traditional frosted Christmas cookies. Of course this recipe doesn’t have to be used for just Christmas. How about Halloween? Valentine’s Day? The recipe source is listed as Penzeys, which, apparently, is a space company. I don’t know anything about the spice company, but this is one of the recipes that my grandmother used.

Caramel Icing

Again, another recipe for caramel icing. This one is from my grandmother Gladah Childs. The other one is the one we usually use though.

Wilted Spinach Salad

This spinach salad has herb and garlic or Italian dressing, chopped onion, bacon, and hard-boiled eggs.
