EASY PEACH AND NUT DESSERT

1Large Can Peach Slices
1 Stick Blue Bonnet Marg. or Butter
1 Box  Yellow Cake MIx
1 Cup Walnuts, chopped
1 Cup Coconut
Empty peaches and juice in a sprayed 9 x 13 pan. Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the peaches. Evenly drizzle the melted butter over the cake mixture. Sprinkle the coconut over the butter and then sprinkle the nuts over the coconut. Bake on 325 for 60 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Very good. A great dish for a family homecoming but it is so good you will have to double the recipe and make in a sprayed  square throw away roasting pan. This is good hot or cold. We make this all the time at our family homecoming.

STEFEN'S PINEAPPLE DESSERT

I have made this and you would think that chedder cheese and pineapples just don't mix, but this is really good. I made it with the crushed pineapple. But use two cans as one can makes it to thin. Very good.

2 Cans crushed pineapple or tibits, drained, save juice
1 Sleeve of Ritz Crackers
3/4  Cup Sugar
11/2 Cups Cheddar Cheese, can use more
6 Tablespoons flour

Take some of the juice and mix the flour in it. If mixture is two thick add some more juice. Add the sugar and stir good until it is dissolved. Add the pineapples. Stir again. Next add the cheddar cheese. Spray a glass dish and pour mixture in. Put the crushed Ritz on top. Bake for 20 minutes. I covered mine so the Ritz would not burn on top. But take off about 5 mintues before taking out of the oven.

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Portobello mushrooms have dark gill that look like fish gills on the under side of them. These can cause dishes made with these mushrooms to turn dark. To keep this from happening take a edge of a spoon and scrape  off the gills before cutting them up.
