Chicken Sesame and Asparagus Salad

I had this recipe at a wedding reception or baby shower, can’t remember which, but it was really good, so I requested the recipe.

Strawberry Cream Salad

This Jell-o salad needs frozen strawberries, bananas, crushed pineapple, and sour cream.

Oatmeal Cake

One of our classic family recipes from my grandmother, Thelma Beatty.

Bacon Cauliflower Salad

This salad will sit overnight in the refrigerator in layers. Before serving, mix all the ingredients together.

Baked Ziti

I actually can’t remember if I have made this or not. I do not eat much pasta now.

Fiery Beef Vegetable Soup

This is one of my favorite soups. You can make it more spicy if you like. Calls for hamburger, mixed vegetables, celery, and potatoes.

Caramel Drizzle

I have not tried this yet. I was looking for a frosting to use on a butter pecan cake and saved this one.

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.

Walnut Maple Cake

Walnut Maple Cake

This cake recipe came from my grandmother, Thelma Beatty. It doesn’t say what frosting should be used for it, but am guessing that a brown-sugar frosting would probably be good.

Torte

Torte

The title of this recipe is “torte” but it isn’t really a torte. It isn’t really a pavlova either. Trying to find a recipe just like this one is impossible. But this is a traditional Christmas dessert in my family. It requires a DOZEN eggs. When it bakes, it ends up with a nice crunchy coating. It is covered with whipped cream.

Sugar Cookies

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.
