Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

40 min.

I made these cookies and they came out perfectly. They did not stick to the pan or spread while baking. I did drop batter with a spoon to keep them on the small side.

Pumpkin-Squash Bisque

120 min.

Roast Pork and Spiced Apples

3 hours

"A Contest winning recipe from Oma Rollison (my mother) featured in Reminisce Magazine with her now famous Banana's 'N Cream Bundt cake. A San Diego, Calif. newspaper once dubbed her "The Queen of Country Cooking." (I guess the apple never falls far from the tree.) She's no longer with us, but her wonderful recipes are."

Salt and Pepper Shrimp (Chinese New Year)

20 min.

Spicy salt and pepper shrimp makes an excellent appetizer or main course.

Sauteed Mushroom and Layered Mashed Potato Casserole

115 min.

Sauteed mushroom and Swiss chard with layered mashed potatoes, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top, after baking the flavor is wonderful. It is also a good dish for holidays.

Garlic mixed with sauteed spinach, really nice!

Sesame Chicken (Chinese New Year)

Sesame chicken is a very popular restaurant dish.

Shrimp Cocktail in Tomato Cups

Simple Octoberfest German Potato Salad

Wonderful recipe, easy and tasty.

Another kind of dumplings, steamed dumplings, but still a popular recipe too!

Stir-fry Beef With Three Vegetables (Chinese New Year)

30 min.

The Chinese believe three is a lucky number, as it symbolizes prosperity. This recipe features an interesting contrast of textures and flavors, with marinated flank steak stir-fried with bok choy, mushrooms, and red onion in a flavourful dark soy and sherry sauce.
