I love curry. Will have to try this recipe at some point.

I love cheese.

This salad calls for orange gelatin, crushed pineapple, apricots, marshmallows, and pineapple or apricot juice.

This Mexican-inspired casserole uses chicken (shredded or cut), black beans, fire-roasted tomatoes, corn, and cream of chicken soup. The casserole is topped with crushed tortilla chips and cheese.

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.

I used this frosting for the first time in 2024. Previously I mostly winged frosting, and this really wasn’t much different than what I usually did. One difference was the almond extract – which I liked, but certain family members complained about.

We were looking for a quick way to make mashed potatoes, especially for when we make shepherd’s pie. Dylan found this recipe but added his own spin with the sautéed onions and garlic.

This souffle uses grits, garlic cheese roll (I don’t actually know what that is!), egg, and butter/margarine.

This recipe was from my Aunt Doris, who was married to my grandfather, Russell Beatty’s, brother Willard Beatty.

I actually didn’t really like this recipe when I was a kid. My mother made it on occasion. I haven’t tried making it as an adult, but think that I would actually like it at this point.
