I hesitate posting this because there isn't an actual recipe. BUT, it's on our menu for the week and it's good. SO, i'll share.

Make rice. I prefer basmati but you can do whatever your family likes.

Put rice on the plate then top with La Choy crunchy noodles.

THEN top with chicken sauce (can of cream of chicken. cooked chicken shredded. thinned with milk. heated in a sauce pan)

After you top rice and noodles with chicken sauce, top it with................

olives

peas

mandarin oranges

pineapple

sunflower seeds

cheese

Pretty much whatever sounds good to YOU!

Hope this recipe makes sense. It's really very simple! give it a try

Buttermilk Chocolate Cake

a.k.a. Texas Sheet Cake or Mormon Brownies

(It's another pot-luck crowd pleaser!)

(I got this recipe from my dear friend Joni about 8 years ago. Thanks for sharing!)

In mixing bowl sift together:

2 cups flour

3 1/2 Tbsp. baking cocoa

2 cups sugar

In saucepan melt together:

1 stick butter

1 cup hot water

1/2 cup oil

Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Mix well. Add:

1/2 cup buttermilk

2 eggs

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. vanilla

Mix well. Pour into a greased and floured 10x15 1/2 baking pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Frost while still warm with following recipe:

Frosting: (make while cake is baking)

In saucepan over medium heat, mix and boil for one minute:

1 stick butter

6 Tbsp. buttermilk

3 1/2 Tbsp. cocoa

Cool to room temp. and add:

1 lb. powdered sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

Sloppy Joes

1 1/2 lbs. ground beef

1 chopped onion

1 chopped bell pepper

1 cup diced celery

1 clove garlic (minced)

1 can condensed tomato soup

3/4 cup water

1/2 cup ketchup

2 Tbsp. brown sugar

1 Tbsp. vinegar

1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp. dry mustard

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. paprika

1/4 tsp. pepper

Brown ground beef and onion in skillet. Drain. Add remaining ingredients, stir thoroughly, cover and simmer 1 hour. OR (my preferred method) After cooking the meat, dump everything in a crockpot and leave it on low all day. Sometimes it turns out a little watery--I just stir in a little flour to thicken it up before serving on hamburger buns and topping with shredded cheddar or a slice of american cheese. I know it's a lot of ingredients, but don't worry--it's super easy and pretty popular at potlucks!

Place on a greased cookie sheet and let it rise for another 30 min - to an hour. Bake at 375 for 25-30 min. Frost with frosting.
