BOLOGNA SALAD---southern style...Southern Indiana that is..heehee

This recipe has been handed down through my family for generations...

First of all, we don't use those new fangled measuring things, we just dump in some of this and some of that...heehee I'll try to get as close on the measurements as I can, but taste and add, that's my motto.

1lb. bologna
3-4 eggs
1-2 tbsp. sweet relish
3-4 tbsp. mircle whip
2-4 slices cheese, american, colby or cheddar
optional....celery, green and red peppers, (or mangos as we call them), or onion

Put bologna, cheese, and eggs through a meat grinder, alternating with bologna being the last to go through. Next, add relish and mircle whip to bowl and mix. You can add the optional items at this time.
Taste often while mixing, then put on bread or buns and enjoy!!!

[mama2calli]

1 4-serving box instant vanilla pudding
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1-1/2 cups cold water
1 8-oz container frozen whipped topping, THAWED
1 prepared angel food cake, broken into 1 inch bits
1 quart strawberries, hulled and sliced or chopped (reserve 1 cup of berries, sliced into halves, for top)

In a large mixing bowl, combine pudding, condensed milk and water; blend well & chill for 5 minutes. Fold in thawed whipped topping; set aside.

In a large bowl or trifle dish, layer 1/3 of the angel food cake bits, 1/2 sliced berries, and 1/3 of the pudding. Repeat layer, then final layers will be the remaining 1/3 cake & 1/3 pudding. Decorate top with reserved sliced berry halves.

Chill 4 hours - or overnight for best results. Serve cold.

Note: you can also substitute peaches, raspberries, blueberries, bananas and/or mangoes - or a combination of them!

1 lb. fresh bread dough or pizza dough
1/3 lb. sliced pepperoni
1 8-oz. package shredded mozzerella
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 tsp. dried onion flakes
1 tsp. garlic powder
cornmeal for dusting pan & bread loaf, optional

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Lightly dust work area with flour. Roll dough to a large rectangle (how big the rectangle is depends on the elasticity of your dough, you don't want any holes), approx. 16" x 20".

Layer pepperoni slices evenly over dough. Spread cheese evenly over pepperoni. Sprinkle spices evenly over cheese. Roll jelly-roll style, pinching all ends and tucking to seal.

Rub loaf with corn meal (optional) and place on a large cookie sheet with rims (in case bread leaks). Bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until dough is lightly browned. Let cool 5 minutes and cut into slices. Makes a great appetizer!

Salsberry Steak...my way

minute/cubed steaks
salt/pepper to taste
1-2 can Campbell's "Golden" Mushroom soup, depending on how many people you are cooking for
potatoes
optional...carrots, green beans, whatever you want really

Buy enough minute/cubed steaks to feed family, I usually fix 4 at a time. Brown them in a skillet, I prefer an electic one. We like our meat well done, so time may vary depending on your tastes. Salt/pepper the steaks as you usually would, or like you'd salt/pepper a hamburger. When the steaks are browned, empty contents of soup on top of each steak. Add water to cover the steaks, then stir a little to get some of the soup mixed. It won't all mix at first because the water won't be boiling. Leave a little soup on top of each steak. Cover and let cook boiling low on about 275 degrees for however long you like them, I usually cook mine about 2 to 2 1/2 hours, stirring about every 15 mintues or so. I also turn the meat over when I stir it. When you turn your steaks over the first time, say on the first 15 minute stir, the rest of the soup will mix in. Cut potatoes into pieces, I like mine small. Add them to the mix and you may need to add a little more water. The potatoes will need to boil some to get done, so I like to put them in about 1 to 1 1/2 hours before it's done. They seem to cook better and soak up more of the flavors. You can add other ingredients like carrots or green beans or whatever, I just don't. Make sure you cook on a low boil so the soup doesn't burn. If needed, add more water. I keep mine covered with water until the potatoes are done, then I start letting the water cook out. I make sure there is a little soup when it's done. If you've ever had gravy, you'll know what I mean, if you don't, then you better find a gravy recipe and make some, you don't know what you're missing...

Trace, these sound sooooo good. I can't wait to try this recipe out.

If anyone likes Chicken ala King, here is a great recipe:

Ingredients:

4 boneless breasts of chicken
4 tbsp of butter
2 green peppers [slice them up into small strips]
1/2 yellow onion [chopped fine]
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of chicken soup
4 tbsp of flour
1 small jar of pimentos
2 cups of milk [plus additional milk mentioned below]

In a pot, boil chicken until cooked throroughly. Place chicken to the side. In a large pot, melt butter, add the onion and green peppers and simmer for a few minutes, stiring frequently. Add the flour [the mixture will become clumpy immediately, so have the milk ready!]. Add one cup of milk at a time slowly and stir for a few minutes until it thickens just a bit. Then add the cream of chicken soup. Add 1/2 can of milk [use the soup can] and stir until smooth. Add the cream of chicken and stir. Add another 1/2 can of milk [from soup can again]. Keep stiring until it really thickens. This is the MOST milk you can add to the recipe. If you add too much milk, it will not taste right. Now, tear the chicken pieces apart into small pieces. You can cut it up or tear it apart with a fork and flake it [I hope this makes sense] and add it to the mixture. Add the jar of pimentos for color.

You can buy pillsbury puff pastry shells and serve the mixture over the shells....it's delicious! I also usually cook some peas to serve with it. It's the only time I like peas...lol!

I hope you like it!

I posted this earlier in the "Fast Food" survey. It's SOOOO good, you HAVE to try it!

MARINADE FOR GRILLED CHICKEN

1 cup Worcestershire sauce
½ cup oil
½ cup white vinegar
½ cup wine vinegar
1/8 cup liquid smoke
½ tablespoon MSG (Accent, etc...salt can be substituted if you don't want to use MSG)
½ tablespoon salt
¼ tablespoon pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1½ packages dry Italian dressing mix
1 lemon, thinly sliced

Combine all marinade ingredients in large shallow container; add chicken. Place lemon slices on top (they will float).
Marinate at room temperature for 4 hours or in refrigerator for 8 to 12 hours.
Use marinade as basting sauce when grilling chicken. Remove lemon from any remaining marinade and refrigerate for future use.

Here's one for a serious sweet tooth! This recipe is from my Great-Aunt Christine. She used to make this pie and oooooooooooo it was so good! My dh describes it as "like pecan pie only it's just chocolate". IMHO, this is a tough one to tell when it's actually done because of the fudgy texture, but it's good either way. Don't eat too much of it at once tho or you'll give yourself a tummy ache!


CHOCOLATE CHESS PIE

2 Eggs
3 1/2 tbsp Cocoa
1 1/2 cups Sugar
Pinch of Salt
1 Small Can (5oz) Evaporated Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 Stick Butter or Margarine


Mix all ingredients together and pour into frozen pie shell. Cook at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until done.

* I cook mine on top of a cookie sheet. The mixture usually fills the entire pie shell and ends up getting messy if I don't use the cookie sheet under it.
