Jane's Barbecued Short Ribs
A recipe I got from an dear friend many, many years ago, who got it from her mother. Very easy, and wonderful flavor. Good in the summer and even better in the winter on a cold night. Can also cook it in the slow cooker. Then when you come home from work, all you have to do is either grill or broil them to brown them before serving. Serve with mashed potatoes or potato salad or egg noodles.
Chocolate Cake Batter Hummus
Dessert hummus is a thing, and it is absolutely decadent! Serve with pretzels, strawberries, or graham crackers. Also makes a delicious filling for crepes topped with bananas. You can trick anyone into eating chickpeas when they taste this good! For a deeper color and flavor, use Dutch process cocoa powder.
Fiesta Tater Tot Casserole
We invented this recipe one night after one of us wanted Tater Tot casserole for supper, while the other wanted Mexican...It's super easy and super yummy! Baking the Tater Tots before layering may be unnecessary but we wanted to make sure they had a chance to crisp up. The whole family loved this dish! Hope you do too!
