Chunky Hearty Three-Bean Soup

This is our new favorite soup, perfect for these cool autumn days. The original recipe, titled “Recipe for Health: Hearty Three-Bean Soup”, was printed in a magazine we receive from a local hospital. True to its name, it is very hearty, full of flavor, and chunky with lots of the good stuff! We’ve made it many times, adjusting the seasonings and adding ground turkey. Most of the seasonings approximately double the original amounts.

Rita’s Famous Cheeseball

FOUND!!! Rita’s famous cheeseball recipe. I’ve heard about it… they’ve raved about… and at last, here it is — Rita’s Famous Cheeseball!

Chocolate Drizzled Cherry Bars

We clipped this recipe from a package of Land O’Lakes Unsalted Butter. We haven’t tried it yet, but how you can go wrong with this combination of ingredients?

Jim’s Turkey Chili

Jim created this recipe after combing through a few of our many cookbooks for inspiration for a good chili recipe. He combined what he considered the best of each one into a new recipe of his own. It’s become one of our favorite go-to dinners. With less liquid, it would also make an excellent Chili Con Carne dip to serve with chips.

Quick Dill Potatoes

These yummy potatoes are similar to mashed potatoes, but easier and, in my opinion, more flavorful. Instead of actually mashing the potatoes, you simply stir them with a little cream when they are finished cooking, and they mash right down while you are vigorously stirring. If you don’t have cream on hand, use milk with a little butter. This is a great company dish! Source: Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book.
