    I 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. --Carol

  • Question

    I have tried multiple ideas for beef and noodles, but they always taste the same to me. (Or I overdo it and it's simply horrible.) There must be a recipe that spruces up a family favorite. ... I am just looking for more flavor - not salty flavor, just more or different flavor. Can it be done? Is it possible to add flavor without losing the tried and true taste? Please advise.

     

    And, thank you for all of your great recipes and ideas. My family loves when I bring home a new recipe from you. :)

    Hi Betty,

    Removing the skin from fresh peaches is easy. However, how about the stone? I buy cling free but still have trouble removing – and yes, they're ripe. Thanks.
