Candied Lemon Peel
This candied lemon peel recipe is a good way to use up lemon rind and goes well with coffee or dessert. It really does taste like candy, and you can use this method for any citrus fruit. If you use oranges you can add brandy, cloves, or other spices to the mixture. Chop it up and put it in cakes or cookies, or just eat it by itself.
Slow Cooker Collard Greens
Got this from a coworker who made these for the office holiday potluck. Collard greens are cooked all day with ham shanks and pickled jalapeno. Yum!
Dad's Favorite Lemon Icebox Pie
This recipe was passed down from my grandmother to my mom, from mom to me, and from me to my daughter. For many years my dad has reaped the rewards of this pie from one of us, as it's the only Father's Day and birthday gift he has ever requested.
