This is not the typical recipe that we fix. This one can be done in the oven instead of the stovetop. It is an easier to make version.

Shrimp Creole

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.

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.

Lemon Meringue Pie

Classic lemon meringue pie. Yum!

Albondigas Soup

We really like this soup! We use the albondigas that are sold at Smart and Final.
