    Spinach dip is yummy CBW. That is an appetizer that is used a lot around the U.S. in the major metro area restaurants. I have seen many different types. Some with my personal favorite, artichokes. I don't know if you are going to find anything comparable Velveeta in your part of the world. It actually isn't cheese, per say. It is a processed cheese. Real artery clogger although it is yummy when it is melted. This isn't a bad recipe to try out. Include the cayenne pepper that the person who reviewed it suggested. Unless of course, you don't like anything spicy.

    I do not have a recipe but I would dearly love a recipe for something my Aunt Emilia used to make called "Bangers and Mashers" At least that I think it was - I know there were mashed potatoes and some kind of meat. She used to fix it for us kids when we visited. Does anyone know this recipe and would mind sharing it? Thanks so much.

    Shy, that'll be SAUSAGES and mashed potatoes then ;)
    Bangers is an English term for sausages.
    Best servered with onion gravy, and I don't mean thet stodgey white stuff you guys call gravy, but a thick brown meat based sauce. More here: Gravy

    The biggest problem is that we don't get the kind of sausages you guys get over there. I am sure Shy can find substitutes but I have to say that although it has now been hmmm 32 years since I had them, the sausages I ate when I was living with a family in London one summer, are still so vivid in my memory. Hot or cold, they were amazing. I have never tasted anything that came close to them. Cold, in a packed picnic basket, sitting on Brighton Beach. I remember it like it was yesterday. Oh great. Now I am hungry.

    Thanks so much, I agree with the real brown gravy - actually that is the only kind I know to make. I do make a thick white sauce for country sausage gravy with biscuits. So what kind of sausages do I look for to make Bangers and Mashers? I imagine nothing from the supermarket like Hormel but the meat market, where the meat is real? Lol

    Just want to share the goodness!
    So I brought this in for a potluck at my job and everyone liked it. I call it Strawberries n Cream. Here is the receipe.

    1lb Fresh Chopped Strawberries
    1can of Condenced milk
    1can of Evaporated milk
    1cup of yogurt(plain)

    It's very easy and it makes a great dessert. You can add more yogurt or more of what ever. Depends what you like and what your taste is.

    Try it and let me know what you think.

    ;)

    Also I serve it on a cup topped with whipped cream and granola and/or coconut.

    Yum lotz - sounds great!!

    Could you put this in between a pound cake, sort of like a strawberry shortcake? Hubby loves strawbery shortcake, but I just couldn't find a good receipe, but this sounds so yummy.

    Thanks again
