The Tom and Jerry drink is a holiday favorite in my family. The batter makes an excellent topping for both alcoholic cocktails as well as hot cocoa, eggnog, or warm milk for the kids. The batter can be frozen or kept in the refrigerator for several weeks.

LaWanna's Mango Salsa on Tilapia Fillets
A delicious fruity salsa topping to serve over fish or chicken, from a friend in Florida. I always use whatever that I have left in a mixed greens salad the next day. Use any kind of fish -- I use tilapia or salmon. The fish may also be grilled, which is what I prefer. If I can't find a good fresh pineapple, I will use canned pineapple tidbits.
Hot Banana Salsa
This is a Jamaican-style banana salsa.
Zucchini Coconut Cake
My mom has made this zucchini coconut cake recipe for years using fresh zucchini from the garden. It is a family favorite. It's even great to freeze and serve when company comes.
