Canning Green Beans
How would you can green beans? What about canned dilled green beans? I just love your site and all the great recipes. Thank you. Nobody cooks the way Grandma does!

Hi Sandi!
Thanks for the oh-so-kind words about my recipes! And guess what? I’ve got just the recipe you’re looking for: Dilly Beans are fresh green beans, pickled in vinegar, mustard seed and dillseed and canned in sterilized jars. If you need to brush up on canning basics, or if you’ve never canned before, you might want to check out the National Center for Home Food Preservation website; it has some great advice on Canning and other ways of preserving food at home.

QuestionI had the recipe card for Chicken & Dressing Bake and also for Ham Puffs. But my 12-year-old daughter, who now does a lot of baking thanks to Grandma's recipes, has misplaced them. Can you please share the recipes? The puff recipe was one where after you bake pastry puffs, you stuff them with tuna or chicken or cheese filling. My daughter makes them for church and family gatherings and gets rave reviews. --CarolMarch 2012

Hi Grandma!
I find it hard to cut brownies into nice bars, and they often stick to the pan. Any suggestions?
