Dip for Fruit
Betty, I am serving a lavish fruit tray and would like a creamy recipe for a dip to go alongside the fruit. Thank you.
--Patsy
Hi Patsy,
How about a quick-and-easy strawberry dip? Simply mash about 1/2 cup of sliced ripe strawberries in a medium bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup of vanilla yogurt (or vanilla custard yogurt, if you can find it) and 1 to 2 teaspoons of honey. That's it -- very easy, but quite delicious!

QuestionI love Grandma’s Kitchen recipes, there are a lot that have become a tradition around holidays and at the dinner table. I get so many compliments on them when I take them to someone’s house and I always have people ask me for the recipe. I have lost some over the years, but was delighted to find some of my favorites on your website. One recipe that we loved, but that is missing from the site, is braised short ribs -- That was amazing!!! I would be forever grateful if you could add that recipe to this website for me! Thanks again. ~Priscilla~March 2012

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
