White Sauce
This white sauce recipe can be used as a base for many dishes, such as lasagna and chicken pot pie. I use it to make macaroni and cheese for my granddaughter. I learned to make it in home economics too many years ago to count!
Gingerbread Muffins
An easy-to-make delightful treat! Irresistible and divine with tea, these gingerbread muffins will fill your kitchen with the smell of the holidays. Passed down to me from my mother-in-law. My husband grew up on these muffins and still loves them!
Beef Enchilada Dip
I kind of invented this recipe based on how I make my enchilada sauce. I always want to dip my chips in the sauce, so I turned it into a dip! Serve with tortilla chips and/or Fritos®. It is good in tortillas as well.
