Chocolate Teddy Bear Cookies Ready Time: "Cookies shaped like teddy bears."

Grandma's Polish Perogies Ready Time: 2 Hrs "My grandfather is Polish, and his mother taught my grandmother how to make these delicious perogies. The recipe has been in the family for generations, with a few alterations of course! Serve plain, or with butter, sour cream, bacon, etc. Perfecting the perogie technique takes time, and after a while, you will develop your own system."

Horseshoe Ready Time: 40 Min "Every time we visit Springfield, Illinois we have to eat one of their famous horseshoes. The cheese sauce is a little different depending on where you stop to eat, seems everyone has their own way of making it. But we love them all. If you only use one slice of bread and one hamburger patty it is called a ponyshoe. This recipe can also be made with chicken tenders in place of the hamburger patties."

Italian Beef Sandwiches Ready Time: 1 Day 2 Hrs "Lorriane Pierce was a master cook. Whenever these were on the menu, lines would form. Serve on crusty Italian bread."

Jibarito Ready Time: 25 Min "Authentic Puerto Rican sandwich that my family can't get enough of. Wonderful because there is NO bread involved!!!"

Ponczki Ready Time: "This is the 'traditional' ponczki made by most Polish Grandmothers, like mine. These take time and patience, but the product is worth it. Preferred, traditional frying method is with lard but oil will work fine. I usually mix equal portions. Grandma used a large paper bag, and dropped them in immediately after removing from the fryer. The bag absorbs a lot of the oil. Then, she transferred them to another clean bag, added her choice of coating, and shook the bag."

Shrimp de Jonghe I Ready Time: 30 Min "Great shrimp appetizer that can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated for later cooking. Terrific with garlic bread or fresh dinner rolls."

Shrimp de Jonghe II Ready Time: 45 Min "A rich and elegant shrimp dish which belies it's short preparation and cooking time."

Slow Cooker Kielbasa and Beer Ready Time: 6 Hrs 10 Min "A delicious, minimal prep recipe to serve as a side dish with dinner, or for company! My husband would live on this if I let him, and our entire family loves it! A slow cooker recipe too easy not to try!"
