Great american/3 recipes

Delicious, moist and light. This coffee cake is a great dessert to end the meal without feeling guilty and satisfies the sweet tooth. Of course, with a cup of freshly brewed coffee, hmmm, yum.

I was skeptical about the recipe, but I happened to have all the ingredients on hand, so went for it. To my surprise, it actually tasted delicious. It was also a great way to use frozen broccoli. Overall I liked it, and will probably make it again.

This is a fantastic recipe, tastes so great, it is one of the best meatloaf I have ever eaten.

Loaf leavened with yeast. Requires a bread machine. Here's one of my favorite breads to make. The trick here is to use stone ground cornmeal, not the powdered/bleached variety. It gives the bread a great flavor, and a really nice coarse texture. The combination of ingredients give it a very different flavor than standard banana/nut or pan-baked corn bread.

This delicious spread made with cheddar cheese and jalapeno peppers is a great way to spice up your sandwiches or burgers.

Don't hesitate to make this delicious casserole. I have made it with leftover chicken or turkey meat, and they all turned out great.

Made popular back in the 1960's by a bakery in Brooklyn. Chocoholics of all ages love this rich chocolate layer cake that uses a thick pudding instead of icing.

Delicious and juicy rhubarb pie to serve with family and friends, a great summer dessert that everyone loves.

A succulent and scrumptious dish made with lean ground beef, cheddar cheese and a zesty tomato sauce.

Congee is the Chinese name, Kanji the Japanese, and Jook is the Filipino name, all for the same thing. In English it would be called Rice Gruel or maybe Rice Hot Cereal, but progressively it is referred to by the naturalist health community as Congee. It is a staple of the Ancient Chinese Diet and used to nurse the sick and weak back to health. They say 3 weeks of this will cure ANYTHING! Its because it gives your system such a break that it can use its energy elsewhere to heal what ails you. It has nursed me back to health at least 3 times now and is supposed to be a part of my DAILY diet, according to my Acupuncturist, Betsy. Thank you for saving my life Betsy!!!
