Old-Fashioned Brown Sugar Cake
Not sure where this brown sugar cake recipe came from. My mom passed it to me many years ago. We use it as a great holiday favorite, but I usually sneak it in a couple of times a year. It's a great treat to bring to a party or work. The brown sugar and almond extract give it a distinctive taste.
Ultimate Pizza Sauce
A pizza and pasta red sauce with sauteed vegetables and tomatoes. Every time I make this dish, I vary it based on available fresh vegetables, so feel free to do the same! Excellent with pizza, pasta, or chicken Parmesan. Freeze sauce if needed. Servings size depends on intended dish.
