The day after Christmas and I have had a couple of people ask me for recipes….so I decided to share with all!
For Ethel, I’ll share the recipe for CANDY CLUSTERS that my sister-in-law Pam gave me years ago. (It’s good for me to share on the blog since my 3×5 note card is stained and fading!
CANDY CLUSTERS
3 1/3 C Rice Krispies
3 1/3 C Cheerios
1 12 oz Can Peanuts (approximately 2 1/3 Cups)
1 bag Pretzels (broken in small pieces) – approximately 3 1/3 Cups
1 1/2 pounds White Chocolate
Mix Cereal, Peanuts & Pretzels in a large bowl. Melt Chocolate. Mix in well, Then Spread into flat pan, let harden and then break into clusters.
For Pam & Erin, also, glad to put the recipe for ITALIAN MEAT BALLS on the blog….easier to find than searching through all the cookbooks I have with the plastic binding from miscellaneous church groups who have fundraised in the past. This particular recipe came from First Family Favorites-First Assembly of God, 5650 S. Telegraph, Dearborn Heights, MI 48125. Nope. Never been there. Nope. Have no idea where this cookbook came from. Must’ve been a treasure found at a yard sale or thrift shop! Lots of family favorite recipes though!
ITALIAN MEAT BALLS
1 pound Ground Beef
1 C Plain Bread Crumbs
1/2 C Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 Small Onion, minced
1 tsp. Salt
1/8 tsp. Black Pepper
1 TBS Parsley Flakes
1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder
2 Eggs
Mix together well and roll into balls. Brown in frying pan with a little oil. Add to your favorite sauce. Good without sauce too. —- Becky Sampson (whoever that is!)
