Final[ish] Draft of Lotsa Helping Hands Family-Friendly Cookbook
Comments (14)OK, here's a quick and easy dessert that's still a good old fashioned comfort food and relative nutritious as desserts go. (grin) Blueberry Crisp-GrandmaÂs ================ 3 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen, unsweetened 2 tbls lemon juice 2/3 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup flour 1/2 cup quick oats 1/3 cup butter, softened 3/4 tsp cinnamon 1/4 tsp salt . Heat oven to 375. Arrange berries in ungreased square baking dish (8 inch) and sprinkle with lemon juice. Combine remaining ingredients until crumbly. (I use a pastry blender, grandma used two knives). Crumble topping over berries and bake until topping is lightly browned and berries are hot, about 30 minutes. Makes 4-6 servings. I double this and it still comes out good. Plus blueberries are low in calories, have lots of fiber and no fat, contain antioxidants C, E and beta carotene and have been found to be as helpful in urinary tract health as cranberries. That's why I need ice cream with them, they are just too darned healthy. LOL Blueenough, it's clear that your daughter was a wonderful person and well loved by her family and community. It's always too soon to lose a child, a mother, a wife, and so I'm sending my prayers for strenth and healing to you all. And some blueberry crisp, compliments of my own beloved late Grandmother, Delphia Powell, who left me with my love of cooking and a lot of great recipes. Thanks, Grandma.

Comments (29)These two posts might help you with the recipe arlinek. The first is from a guy who bought a package of the chili from Cupids and listed the ingredients. The second is from a guy who made a batch with canned chili, beer and canned tamales. You might want to add some of the seasonings mentioned in th e first post, ie cumin and oregano to get a better flavor. I might try this tonight, Hebrew National all beef hotdogs are on sale for $3. "I recently purchased from a Cupids location for $40.00 USD the chili as it is delivered to them from STOKES. The chili is delivered in two separate packages, the first being the Chili Sauce with meat and then the Tamale sauce with beef. On each was a label and here is what the ingredients are; Chili Sauce with Meat Beef Suet, Carrots, Cereal (Oats) Spices, Salt, Garlic Powder Tamale Sauce with Beef Beef, Bleached Wheat Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Water, Chili Pepper, Oregano, Cumin, Corn Meal, Salt & Garlic Powder I do not know the proportions of these ingredients, however I am certain that someone can figure that out now that I have supplied the ingredients. The guy that sold it to me instructed be to mix the two packages together and add water to the get the desired thickness. ThatÂs all Enjoy Richard" http://www.recipelink.com/mf/14/25164 and also this.... "I did some experimenting after reading the posts in this forum and came up with a close imitation of Cupid's chili dogs. Listen this. You will need: 1 pack of natural skin hot dogs hot dog buns 1 can of chili with no beans (Hormel's tastes a little strong. Find one that is a bit blander. I used a generic.) 1 can of Hormel's canned tamales some beer (I used Heineken) Steam the hot dogs and buns. Heat your can of chili in a pot. As the hot dogs and chili cook, take your can of tamales, stick them in a blender and liquify them (make sure to include all of the juice and no paper). Add the tamale mix to the chili. Now, what I noticed at Cupid's was a distinctive beer taste. So, I added beer to the Chili. This will give the chili a unique tanginess like no other. Pour in enough beer to taste. Not much is needed to give it that special spike! Stir all of the ingredients. It might be possible that the chili is too thin. Vaporize some of the extra liquid by leaving it on the stove for a bit and then letting it cool when you are satisfied with the consistency. This should thicken things up a bit. Slap a dog in a bun, add liberal amounts of mustard, and slather with the new chili/tamale/beer mix. I was quite surpised at how close this comes to Cupid's. It even has that reddish oily liquid at the top of the chili. Let me know what you think. Bon apetit!" and also this....
