I started this blog...

as a way of compiling all my families favorite recipes all together in one place.
My daughter asked me if I would write down a certain something I make so
she has it when she grows up and has a family. I thought that was a good idea,
so I decided to combine all our favorites and make one big book. It will be a
work in progress and a way for me to ORGANIZE all the recipes stashed in
the cupboard. And I've realized, I like taking pictures of food!

Creamy Berry Dessert Salad

I was in the mood for berries or some kind of fruit salad, so I made this to go with dinner. It is so good! My family loves it. There were only two servings leftover for the next day, which I gave to two of my kids for lunch, who were home sick with fevers. Boy, did I get in trouble with one of my kids when she got home from school, cuz I didn't save her any! They're begging me to make more.
1 half-pint whipping cream
2 T. sugar
2 (16 oz.) pkgs. frozen mixed berries
16 oz. yogurt, french vanilla
1 sm. box instant pudding, (Oreo Cookies 'n Creme, Cheesecake, Vanilla, etc.)

Place the bags of berries in hot water for 20 minutes to thaw. Whip the cream and sugar. Add the berries. If the strawberries are whole I slice them first. Then add yogurt and pudding mix. Mix well. Chill.

I didn't do the last step, we just ate it.  Each spoonful is a rich bite of creamy berry deliciousness.
