Here's one more salad--this time a side. Husband says it should really be called a dessert, but if you call it a salad you get to eat it with dinner instead of after. :-)
Snicker Salad
2 Snicker bars
1 apple
1 small pkg vanilla pudding
1 small tub Cool Whip
Prepare pudding according to package directions and put in fridge. Cut up Snickers and apple into bite-sized pieces. Fold Snickers, apple, and Cool Whip into vanilla pudding. Enjoy!
Variation: Instead of Snickers and an apple, use fudge-stripped cookies (just crunched up with your hands) and a can of (drained) mandarin oranges.

Funeral Potatoes
I have tried several different recipes for funeral potatoes, but have never found the one that was just like I had growing up. But this Easter, my mom asked me to make a pan of them for our dinner, so I took the opportunity to get the recipe she uses from her... now I've finally found the funeral potatoes that are "just like I remember". Now, I'm sure just like me, you have your favorite version of funeral potatoes (if you've ever had them...), but if you are looking for a good recipe, give this one a shot. Oh, sorry, no picture...
p.s. You may wonder why they are called funeral potatoes. In the LDS Church, there is somewhat of a tradition of providing a lunch after a funeral for the family of the deceased. This cheesy potato casserole usually makes an appearance there.

1.5 pkgs southern-style hashbrowns
1 can cream of chicken
2 c. sour cream (1 lb container)
1.5 cups shredded cheese
salt and pepper to taste
1-2 tsp. onion flakes
1/2 c. milk, optional
cornflakes, crushed
Put the hashbrowns in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 5-10 minutes until hashbrowns are heated through. In a separate bowl, mix together cream of chicken, sour cream, and cheese. Add milk if you want it thinned down a little. When hashbrowns are heated through, season with salt & pepper and onion flakes. Mix potatoes in with cheese mixture. Spread into a 9x13 pan. Top with crushed cornflakes. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes.
