(2 large bananas) 2 cups flour 1 tsp baking powder ½ cup walnuts (optional-I don't use) Cream butter and sugar with mixer-add beaten egg. Dissolve baking soda in milk and stir in mashed bananas. Add to butter, sugar, and egg mixture. Sift or stir together baking powder and flour, then mix into wet ingredients. Add nuts if using. Pour into greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes. Test with toothpick or knife for doneness. Let cool completely (try not to cut into it), and wrap in wax paper then foil and let set for several hours or overnight. This is from Mike's Aunt Cacky (Catherine) who is a family legend at holidays. We always long for the days of Cacky's dressing, chicken salad, or chocolate pie. We've never been able to duplicate them. Her Banana Bread I finally got the hang of after she told me to be sure and use really ripe bananas.
Note: Delicious, but don't beat ingredients as you mix it together. Ingredients: 1½ cups oil 3 eggs beaten 1½ tsp vanilla 1½ cups crushed pineapple 1½ cups mashed, ripe bananas
3 cups all-purpose flour, sifted 2 cups sugar 1 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp cinnamon 1 cup chopped pecans
With a large spoon, mix dry ingredients. Mix eggs and oil and stir into dry ingredients. Add vanilla, pineapple, bananas, and nuts. Bake in three layer cake pans for 30 minutes in 350 degree oven. Cool on wire rack before icing. CREAM CHEESE FROSTING FOR HUMMINGBIRD CAKE 1 8 oz pkg of cream cheese 1/2 stick margarine 1 lb Goyo confectioner's sugar Small amount of milk
Have all ingredients at room temperature. Cream margarine and cream cheese thoroughly. Add confectioner sugar, small amounts at a time, blend well between additions. Thin to desired spreading consistency with milk. Spread between layers, on top and sides of cake. Makes a large, rich and moist cake. Original recipe from Capper's Weekly. *From Sheryl's mother, Joan Tierney: "This recipe is a favorite cake my daugher, Sheryl, loved to make. I thought Katey might cherish her memory by baking this delicious dessert."

½ tsp dried leaf basil ½ tsp dried leaf thyme ¼ cup catsup 2 tsp dried mustard 1½ cup dried bread crumbs 2 beef bullion cubes dissolved in 1
cup water
Beat egg and add salt, pepper, basil, thyme, catsup, mustard, bread crumbs and bullion mix. Mix well, add to ground chuck and mix thoroughly. Form into loaf. Bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour.
*Shortcuts: Use a store-bought roasted chicken, boxed broth, and Pillsbury pie crust. Easy to break into 2 days prep; cook & dice chicken and prepare pastry one day, refrigerate and put together the next.

Hungarian Goulash From: Lucille Tierney Ingredients: 2 or 2½ lbs of ground beef 3 onions, chopped 1-8 oz can tomato paste 1 or 1½ cup water 2 tsp sugar 2 tsp paprika 2 tsp salt
Poultry and Seafood
1½ tsp caraway seed 1 tsp dill seeds 2 tsp worcestershire sauce ¼ tsp garlic powder ¼ tsp black pepper ⅛ tsp dried mustard ⅛ tsp basil 1 cup sour cream Hot buttered noodles
Saute' meat and onions in large skillet or Dutch oven. Drain fat and add remaining ingredients EXCEPT sour cream. Stir, cover pan, and simmer 2-3 hours. Stir in sour cream and serve over noodles.
Ingredients: 4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts Sliced pineapple, canned or fresh Mix the marinade and put on chicken and pineapple (in separate containers). Marinate for 6-8 hours. Drain marinade from chicken and pineapple and bring to boil for 5 mins.
Marinade: ¼ cup oil ¼ cup soy sauce (we like Kikkomen Less Sodium) 2 TBS ketchup 1 TBS vinegar ¼ tsp pepper 2 cloves garlic, crushed ⅓ cup pineapple juice
Over charcoal/gas grill or in grill pan on stove, grill chicken breast, turning and brushing with marinade frequently until done. Grill marinated pineapple slices and serve with chicken. This is tasty when paired with a salad that uses poppy seed dressing. *This has been a favorite of ours since the mid 1980's. I found it in the Cedar Rapids. IA newspaper. We lived in Manchester, IA-hence the name.

Ingredients: ½ cup softened butter 1 large clove garlic, crushed 2 tsp chives 2 tsp parsley ½ tsp salt ½tsp crumbled rosemary ½ tsp pepper 1-2 eggs, lightly beaten 1 TBS water 4 small whole chicken breasts, skinned and boned ½ cup flour Oil for frying.
Chop the following vegs into a large bowl while water is heating. 1 bunch of asparagus small pieces 8 oz of mushrooms sliced 1 red bell pepper chopped in small pieces 1 yellow bell pepper chopped 1 orange bell pepper chopped I sprinkle ¼ tsp salt over all the vegetables, then ¼ tsp pepper and 2 TBS olive oil. Add 3 cloves minced garlic and mix well. Spread into a 15x11 jelly roll pan (Baking pan with sides)
In small bowl, combine butter, garlic, chive, parsley, salt, rosemary, and pepper; blend well. Lay on sheet of wax paper, fold paper over top and pat mixture into ¾ inch roll. Freeze till hard. In another bowl, blend egg and water, set aside. Pound each chicken breast to ¼ inch thickness. Cut hard roll of butter mixture into 4 equal peices. Lay one piece on each chicken breast and roll up in the chicken tucking in the ends. Secure with skewer or toothpick. Dip chicken rolls in flour, then egg mixture, then flour again. Heat oil in a deep skillet and fry for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels, remove skewer, and serve hot. Prep time: 1+ hour
When water is ready and the oven is heated, I place 8 ounces (about 3 cups) penne noodles in the water and the vegs in the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. Mix noodles and vegs together. I use about ¼ cup of Ragu Parmesan Alfredo Sauce as my sauce, then grate Parmesan Cheese on top.
