Baked Beans
Elevate the flavor of ordinary pork 'n beans by adding bacon, brown sugar, and a few basic condiments. The measurements given are just estimates, so adjust them as desired.
Orange Peel Beef
I came up with this orange peel beef by attempting to duplicate a dish at a local Chinese restaurant. A friend told me that Chinese chefs often use baking soda as a meat tenderizer (called velveting). My family thinks it tastes even better than the original.
Banana and Peanut Butter Pancakes
Lightly sweet pancakes with a hint of peanut butter and little chunks of banana. Flavorful enough that you don't even need the syrup. Makes little pancakes that are easy for little fingers to pick up and dunk in syrup, or cut into pieces for littler ones. Add more or less milk to make thicker or thinner pancakes. Makes enough for Mom and a few small kids.
