Recipe Request

Would you wonderful cooks please share a couple of recipes with me. Precisely, the potato casserole and the mixed vegetable casserole. Hum-hum-good. Thanks,

I already got the recipe for the oriental cole slaw salad from Janice and made it last night. Yuuuum! Plus, I want pie making lessons from Kay. I do just about anything but pie, mine are terrible.

The potato casserole is so easy it's embarrassing.

1 package of frozen country style hashbrowns
1 can cream of chicken soup
about 1/2 to 3/4 cup sour cream
about 1 cup grated cheddar
chopped onion, either white or green, about 1/3 cup

(I rarely measure, I throw things in until it looks right)

mix it all together and bake for about 1.5 hours at 350 degrees, until the edges are brown. The best part is the aroma while it bakes.

You can even mix it up early and leave it on time bake.

Vegetable Casserole
2 cans mix veg.
1 can whole kernel corn
1 can green beans
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 cup grated cheese
1 cup real mayonnaise
1 1/2 rolls ritz crackers
1 stk. butter
Drain all veg.Mix all together,Pour into a 9x13 pan.
Top with ritz crackers crumbled.Drizzle with melted
butter.Bake 30 min. at 350*.

Janeen, try this recipe. I have used several recipes, but found this is the most consistently good and it is flakey. The trick to a good pie crust I was finally told is not to work the dough any more than necessary and to always pinchthe cracks together as you roll it out.

Never Fail Pie Crust

3 c. flour
1 1/4 c. shortening
1 tsp. salt
1 lg. egg, well beaten
5 Tbl. water
1 Tbl. vinegar

Cut shortening into flour and salt. Combine egg, water, and vinegar. Pour liquid into flour mixture all at once. Blend with a spoon until the flour is all moistened. Roll out on a floured surface (between two sheets of floured wax paper allows you to pick up the crust and transfer easily to pie pan). Easy to handle and can be re-rolled. Keeps in the refrigerator up to two weeks. If baked before filling, bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Be sure to prick with a fork before baking.

Fudge Pie ( chocolate lovers delight )

1 unbaked pie shell
1 stick of oleo or butter (make sure it is not one of the soft spreads)
1 c sugar
2 lg. eggs beaten
1/2 c chopped pecans
1/2 c chocolate chips
1/2 c coconut

Melt butter, chips and sugar together. Add rest of ingredients. Pour into pie shell, Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. When cracks apear on the crust it is done. Note: might cover edge of crust with strips of foil during part of the paking to prevent burning.
