Church cookbooks! I remember submitting my best original recipe to my church in Waco way back when. I actually had to come up with a name for it (Bananaberry Bliss, scheduled for inclusion in the TCF cookbook). I doubt I still have that little book, but it had a neat recipe for crockpot chicken enchiladas.
My favorite cookbook is a local one from where I grew up in Odessa. It was the Junior League's "Blue Denim Cookbook." There's a great potato salad recipe that uses a pound of bacon including the drippings.
Now that my mom is getting more comfortable using the computer, I really need to get her the software so she can key in all her recipes.

KED – We do love the Ina. Ina and Martha are my number one girls.
And there will be more to come on Mac & Cheese I promise you.
I have made Ina's but I have another fav.
You'll have to wait and see what it is though.

OH! I loved this show! OK, I love all of them, but this one really tripped my zizzwheel!
KED — my husband has a mixing bowl fetish, too! Small world!!! He collects the gigantic American art pottery bowls. We have a slew of bowls so big, they're totally impractical. But they're pretty!
Tommy — Junior League cookbooks are the *best*, aren't they?
Sara and Rob — I'm absolutely devoted, as always!

I love the Church cookbooks! My family made a cookbook and my aunt submitted Missy’s Mashed Potatoes – my recipe – Potato Buds prepared according to directions on box. Nuke Heinz Fat-Free Beef Gravy. Ta-Da! This was many years ago, and thankfully, I have progressed. How much do I love How Much Do We Love!

Any luck finding the Snicker Salad recipe? Anxiously awaiting that one….

WAIT! Is this it? How yummy is this???? I'm sure the nutritional value is fantastic…I mean, you're getting all of your fruit servings in…right? That's justification.
SNICKERS® SALAD
3 red apples
3 green apples
6 frozen SNICKERS® bars (regular size)
12 oz. Cool Whip
Dice apples. Smash frozen candy bars (one at a time, take out of freezer as needed) with wooden mallet. Mix all together with Cool Whip.

OMG – you win.
You've heard of Snickers Salad too!!!!
I brought it to a white trash party once – like a theme party, not just my family reunion – and I served it in a bucket that I had once been used to serve beer in.
classy with a K

Oooh, I LOVE Snickers Salad. I've made it a number of times. Here's how I make it:
6 large Granny Smith apples (diced)
6 Snickers Bars (chopped up into small pieces)
1-2 Cups Salted Peanuts
1 Large and 1 Medium Cool Whip
I put it all together just before I leave for the party!
I've also been known to add some M&M's at the last minute.
