From The Jones-Morris Family Treasury, Sandra Johansen’s Sweet ‘N Sour Meatballs is a winner.

Susan Nielsen’s recipe for venison looks delicious. We thank New Vision Community Church for sharing their cookbook, Feeding the Flock.

Rachel Pfaender’s Cuban Chicken is from First Presbyterian Church of Punta Gorda in their own A Taste of Heaven. This is a one-dish meal, and it is a far cry from “the same old chicken!”

Oh, boy! Oven-baked potato slices in butter and seasonings. This comes from The Apopka Historical Society’s Preserving the Big Potato. It was shared by Betty Bracey. Thank you, Ma’am.

From Cooking with Foliage La Sertoma of Apopka, we have Greta Howard’s Bibb Lettuce and Mandarin Orange Salad. I would venture a guess that if you don’t have Mazola corn oil, you could probably get away with your usual vegetable oil.

A reader, who is not only a good friend but also a whiz in the kitchen, recently treated us to a recipe he found online. The recipe comes from the-girl-who-ate-everything.com and also says, “Source: slightly adapted from Kraft.” This Blueberry Croissant Puff is made from buttery croissants, fruit, and a cream cheese milk mixture that is baked until golden brown.

For dessert, try Darlene Brammeier’s Cherry Torte. It appears to be fairly straightforward; she won’t make us do any backflips. Thanks to Northside Baptist Church for their cookbook where we found Darlene’s recipe.

Mrs. Harrison Smith shares a different slant on biscuits with her Crisp Cheese Biscuits. She leaves with us this caution: “Don’t let them get too brown.” We found this recipe in Plains Pot Pourri, shared with us by our friends in Plains, Georgia.

Pour evenly over croissant pieces. Let stand 20 minutes or soak overnight. 4) Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 35 to 40 minutes or until set in center and golden brown. You may want to cover it with foil for the last 10 minutes if the tops are getting too browned. 5) Serve warm sprinkled with powdered sugar. 6) Variation: Instead of baking in a square pan, bake individually. Place croissant pieces evenly in 10 (1/2-cup) ramekins; sprinkle with blueberries and pour cream cheese mixture evenly over croissant pieces. Let stand 20 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 to 25 minutes or until set in center and golden brown.
