Simple Pineapple CakeRuth Broussard's Recipe Box
General Mills and Pillsbury did not introduce their cake mixes until 1949. The most oft quoted date is 1929 usually mentioning Duncan Hines cake mixes which originally quite lumpy. Now as in other cultures, Cajuns are not too proud to pick up a cake mix at the local grocer. Pineapple is a favorite Cajun flavor and this recipe is the simplest and easiest of all to satisfy the hungry Cajun.

Fig CookiesSharon Duhon for her Momma Mildred Meaux
NUTRITION INFORMATION FOR FIGS - 1/4 cup dried figs counts as 1/2 cup in the MyPyramid.gov Fruit Group. For a 2,000- calorie diet, the daily recommendation is about 2 cups of fruit. Now this is odd... but, there are over 600 types of figs, and you can't find ANY of them in the produce section of the local grocery store...

Chewy Walnut SquaresMarion Turnage from Mae 12-09-1979
This has nothing to do with walnuts but did you know that roosters cannot crow if they cannot fully extend their necks and it is physically impossible for pigs to look up into the sky. Also leave Santa's some bananas for Christmas. Why? Because reindeer like to eat bananas - oh this candy is really great for Holiday baking and sharing.

Prize Winning Fresh Apple CakeJoanna Bourg
This recipe won 3rd place at the Teche News Contest in November 2001 in St. Martinville, La. This recipe was given to me around 1980 by Mrs. Ruby Kiper a dear friend. It was a cold winter day with a fine misty rain falling. My Mother called and said they would like to come out for a visit. Quickly I made the cake and of course the aroma just penetrated the kitchen and that made them all the more anxious to taste. Mother asked if I had enough ingredients to make another one. My stepfather Boyd, said he would go to the store and get whatever we needed to make another one. So we make 2 more; that was now 3. On the way back home they stopped at the store and bought more ingredients. Mother made 2 more the next morning so within less than 24 hours 5 cakes were made. We have been making them ever since. Since they freeze very well. while you are making why not make one to eat and one to freeze. Add a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream for a taste sensation.
