Hi all,
I've only been selling for under a year and have had a great hostess ask me for some "old" recipes and I'm having hard time finding them. Maybe if someone could look in their files for these??

German chocolate flan
Southwest country casserole
Chicken and biscuit bake

These are recipes from around 2001 from what she's telling me.

Thanks so much for any help. She's been great to me, had a fantastic show and have had 2 shows from her's with bookings from each, so I'd really like to help her out!! :D

Thanks again,
Lisa

1 ¼ cups thick and chunky salsa, divided

1 ounce cheddar cheese, shredded (¼ cup)
Sour cream (optional)

Preheat oven to 400F. Using 5” Utility Knife, thinly slice bell peppers and onion into 2-inch strips. In Generation II 12” Family Skillet, cook and stir ground beef until no longer pink; drain. Stir in gravy, garlic pressed with Garlic Press, 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of the Seasoning Mix and ½ cup of the salsa. Add bell peppers and onion. Pour filling mixture into Oval Baker, mounding slightly in center.
