Hi,

Do any of you guys have a great recipe for hot wings.  I love
them so hot that they make you sweat, but I'm looking for both
spicy and mild recipes.   I'm hoping to make some and take
them to a party on the 4th of July.

Thanks.. Jim

POUR:  Some Prego on top of Lasagna (Alot) Not the
whole jar.
SPOON: Some of the Spinach mix over the Prego until

SPRINKLE: Colby, and Mozerella cheeses on top of

COVER: Spinach with more Lasagna.
SPRINKLE: Some more Colby, and Mozerella cheeses on

Hi, there again:
First, I  want to tell all of you-all (how Southern can you get?)
how much I am enjoying the e-mails, recipes, etc.  I have a couple
of recipes I'd like to share and hope you-all enjoy.

1.  The world's easiest foolproof cake.  This is a Chocolate Black
Forest cake - out of the world but PLEASE, MAKE IT EXACTLY LIKE I
TELL YOU.

INGREDIENTS:
1 box of chocolate cake mix, any kind - I prefer Duncan Hines but
others are equally good.
1 can of cherry pie filling - DO NOT use the light one - not enough
cherries.- I usually use Comstock.
3 large eggs, beaten with a fork

AND THAT IS ALL.  Oven 350 degrees, pan 9 x 13 inch UNGREASED AND
UNFLOURED.  You can use two pans, if desired.  Just do not
grease/flour.  In a large bowl, dump cake mix, add can of pie
filling and three eggs.  Stir, do not beat until all dry ingredients
are wet.  Pour into ungreased pan and bake until just barely done. 
Do not overbake.  Cake will be moist, not dry.  And believe it or
not, this is all there is to it.

Some additional info.  Do not add water, oil, etc, not necessary. 
Do not beat since if you do cherries will disintegrate.  You can add
almond flavoring, if desired.  This is such a rich cake (even if low
in fat) that a frosting is not necessary.  For company, I cut in
squares, place each piece  on a nice serving plate, top with a big
dollop of whipped topping, either a sprig of mint or drained
marschino cherry and voila, your reputation as a pastry chef is made
and secure.  Try it, you'll like it.

Turkey/Chicken Waldorf Salad:
This recipe is wonderful for a large group, keeps well and
ingredients can vary, depending on what you have.  I cook this by
bunchs, wads, etc, not specific amounts so feel free to do the same.

INGREDIENTS:
Cooked, diced turkey or chicken breast, no skin, no bones, about 2
cups
2 cups cooked rice, either white or brown.  I prefer the new instant
brown rice
1 large red delicious apple, 1 yellow delicious apple, cored, diced,
unpeeled, if desired.  Be sure to use good flavored apples
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped sweet pickles
1 can diced or chunk pineapple, drained, reserve juice.
Mayo, tsp. prepared mustard, dash of Tabasco, reserved pineapple
juice, some pickle juice.  Use enough of this to moisten mixture. 
Don't drown it but should be moist.
Chopped walnuts - sprinkle on servings.  Do not add before since
they get yukky from sitting.  Not necessary but good.  Pecans are
equally good.
This can be served on lettuce leaves or shredded lettuce in
individual servings or used as main course and let everyone serve
themselves (and they will, heh, heh).
Mix together, let sit in refrigerator several hours.  This keeps
well unless you have a large hungry bunch to feed.  Be sure and
dilute mayo with juices, etc.  Tabasco gives a little jolt but not
necessary.  I think you will enjoy this.  I've made it with leftover
lean pork roast and it was good but believe the turkey/chicken is
better.  Enjoy.

STUFFING/DRESSING FOR TURKEY, CHICKEN, ETC;:
My mother made the world's best stuffing for chicken/turkey and she
had an unusual twist to the usual recipe.  She used about 1/3 
crumbled cornbread (no sugar, please and a good cornbread,
not just baked cornmeal and water), 1/3 toasted stale lightbread 
or leftover biscuits, and here is the unusual part:  1/3 crumbled 
saltine crackers. Other ingredients were:  eggs, chicken broth, 
chopped onions and celery cooked in the broth with giblets - some 
broth and giblets saved for giblet gravy, minced garlic, sage to 
taste, diced cored apple, diced bell peppers (if they don't give
you gas), sometimes cooked crumbled pork sausage, sometimes oysters,
sometimes a handful of pecans, a handful of raisins.  This makes a 
light fluffy dressing and was usually cooked in a buttered/oiled 
casserole but can be stuffed in fowl, if desired.  This is also 
very good with pork roast, leaving out the chicken broth and using 
either milk or hot water to moisten.  I think you will like this and
it is different from usual dressing.  And is it delicious!  Wow.

If anyone is interested, I have lots of wonderful recipes for
Mexican dishes, e.g. tamales, enchiladas (chicken, beef, pork,
cheese), casseroles - shucks, you request it and I probably have it.

Happy cooking to all of you and better yet, happy eating!!!!!

Willie, keep up the good work.  Hope all is well with you and yours.
Bye for now
Marion the long winded.

Off-topic but worth passing on.  I spend a lot of time comparison
shopping both online and off.  I recently discovered a source that
tells me about things that are either free or very inexpensive
after rebates.  These are things such as cameras, tools, 
computer software, clothing, etc.  I get a list every week of
these items.  I'd be more than happy to pass this list along to
anyone who wants a copy.  To get these lists automatically 
forwarded to you each week, just send an email to 
postmaster@chitterlings.com and make the subject of your email
"rebates"   You can be removed from that list any time you want
just by following the instructions posted on that list.
