Grandma's Homemade Banana Bread
Delicious!! I took some advice from the others and made some additions. I added 1 tsp. of cinnamon and 1/2 tsp of nutmeg, 3/4 TBS. of Baking Powder and I used Vitamin D milk instead of sour milk. Turned out excellent! Made it last night, and it's almost gone. The only thing I would warn you about is to make sure you use a big enough loaf pan, I used a size bigger than the directions called for and it still dripped over the sides a bit, still turned out great! Love it. Thank you for the recipe.

Apricot Casserole
OUTSTANDING! This was very easy to make and delicious. The recipe I believe has a typo in it: it says 1/2 cup of butter divided in the ingredients, but in the directions it says to melt the 1/2 cup of butter with brown sugar, flour and juice and pour over top of apricots; this is not correct. Melt only half of the 1/2 cup (1/4 cup) of the butter in with the brown sugar, flour and juice. Use the other 1/4 cup of butter for the cracker crumb topping. I'll try it with peaches next time too. HINT: For easier cleanup use a glass dish instead of metal and use Pam spray on the bottom and especially the sides, cuts calories and hassle by not needing to grease the dish.

Sorta Salisbury Steak
This was absolutely delicious! I had to use more oil than called for for the frying. I also seasoned the meat with salt, pepper, and garlic powder with parsley on both sides before I breaded it with the flour. I used 3 onions and a large can of mushrooms in the layering. Since we like a lot of gravy I added some water to the beef sauce in the pan (after I removed the meat, onion and mushrooms at the end of the 2 hrs. cooking time) added some more salt and pepper, and enough flour to make it thick. After it was the consistency I wanted, I returned the meat etc. to the pan with the gravy and returned it to the oven on 225 for another hour. Turned out EXCELLENT! I don't like Round Steak, but this was enough to change my mind!
