Hello to all. My husband doesn't cook, we have been married 47 years, that's a lot of meals! Sometimes I would get in a cooking rut, which meant wading through piles of recipe cards and cookbooks to find one new recipe. I finally realized that when I found a recipe that I felt was so good it couldn't be improved upon, I didn't have to search for a recipe for that item any more. That started my quest for the 'best of' recipes. Of course that takes a lot of trial and error because many of the recipes out there sound good but taste pretty bad. In spite of that, I did manage to find quite a few best of recipes, so have started a cookbook for my own personal use. It is a work in progress, but has been a blessing for me since I know every recipe in there is something we will enjoy.

This week I searched for a scalloped corn recipe like the one I used in the 60's and 70's but can no longer find. I located a couple online that sounded like it, but both were runny and tasted bad. Needless to say, we won't be having corn for a while, so next week I will have to move on to vinegar-type coleslaw dressing or baked beans.

It was after midnight when I found this site and is now after 1 AM so I haven't had a chance to look around yet, but I assume there are some great recipes posted here and I would be glad to share some of my recipes with you.

Have a good night, see you in the morning.

Welcome to the forum Raindance. Looking forward to seeing your recipes.

Did that corn recipe you remember have crumbled saltines in it?

Nan

Yes, crumbled saltines, one can cream style corn, don't remember if it had whole kernel in it, one egg, and might have had sauted onion and green pepper. It wasn't the custard type, it was pretty firm, and didn't have a cracker topping.

Can't help you with the scalloped corn recipe but welcome to the forum anyway.
