Two Broccoli Casseroles

I two have recipes for broccoli casseroles that I love. One recipe comes from my sister Sharee and the other recipe from my twin sister, Denise. They are both very good but they are very different. Sharee's recipe is a little easier to prepare. Denise's recipe isn't difficult,it just involves a little more time. I hope you'll try them both and see which one is your favorite. I thank my sisters for these recipes and for what they mean to me. I love you both and consider you two of my best friends. I am blessed to have you!


Cheesy Broccoli Casserole

16 oz. frozen chopped broccoli
1 can cream of mushroom soup
8 oz. Velveeta Cheese
Ritz Crackers
2 T. margarine

Thaw broccoli and place in 13 x 9" dish. Spread soup over broccoli then top with slices of Velveeta cheese. I just cover the broccoli with one layer of cheese. Top with crushed Ritz crackers. Dot margarine over crackers. Bake 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until bubbly.

Best-Ever Apple Pie--Really!

You just can't beat a good ol' American apple pie for a great dessert. This recipe was featured in the September 2008 issue of Southern Living. It has five pounds of apples in it!! The picture above is the picture of the pie I made. It was so good! As you read the recipe, you will notice that the crust is a little different--it has cornmeal in it. It also uses apple juice as the wetting agent. The trick is rolling the top crust out large enough to cover that mound of apples. If you love apple pie, try this one. I don't think you'll be disappointed!
