Top 10 Recipes my Family uses:
(If you comment, I can send you any of these recipes, except for the chocolate gravy, my mom would get mad at me)

1. Chocolate Gravy - (family recipe)
I have to have this every Christmas,with biscuits.


2. "Tortilla" Soup - I wanted soup one night and came up with this
chicken, corn, onions, peppers, garlic, tomatoes, cheese, spices

3. "Tortilla" Salad - this is inspired from a salad at Chili's
lettuce, chicken, corn, cheese, beans, tortilla chips, balsamic vinaigrette

4. Terry's Mexican Casserole - This comes from a friend of B's mom.
chips, beef, cream of chicken soup, beans, rotel

5. Fruited Chicken Salad - This comes from a friend I used to go to church with.
This is one of the only chicken salads I'll eat. It has apples and celery (and you can also add walnuts and dried cranberries).

6. Ravioli Lasagna - I wanted lasagna one night, so this is what I made.
Instead of using lasagna noodles, I use ravioli. I also use ricotta and Italian sausage.

7. Chocolate Covered Sugar Bombs - Recipe from my mom - we called them chocolate balls.
I make these every Christmas. Balls of coconut, powdered sugar, and margarine, covered in chocolate


8. Chex Mix - I use the recipe straight off the box.
I make this every Christmas too. I only use Chex and pretzel sticks.


9. Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes - This recipe is an Alton Brown recipe.
People love them. Cream and garlic sauce combined with potatoes and Parmesan cheese.

10. Italian Chopped Salad - This is inspired by a salad that used to be on Old Chicago's Menu.
lettuce, pepperoni, salami, mozzarella, Club crackers, balsamic vinaigrette
