Sauerkraut Salad

1 1-lb can sauerkraut
1 green pepper, chopped fine
1 small onion, chopped fine
3 stalks celery, chopped fine
1 cup chili sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp paprika
3 T lemon juice

Drain sauerkraut and place in bowl. Toss in green pepper, onion, and
celery. Set aside. Blend chili sauce, brown sugar, paprika, and
lemon juice. Pour over salad mixture and toss well.

This wouldn't be too bad if you substituted bagged kraut for the
canned. Even then, I'd probaby be tempted to cook it with a little
bacon, or maybe even a few pork ribs. Oops, just notices the amount of
brown sugar. Cooking the kraut will make it a bit milder, so I'd reduce
the amount of brown sugar to a tablespoon or two. Flavor with a bit of
caraway.

Yick ! Snipped for mental health reasons.

Glorified Rice

Also snipped. A better solution :

1 Cup Basmati, Jasmine, or other quality long grain rice.
1.5 Cups of water.
1 Tablespoon of butter
1 pinch of salt (maybe a bit more if butter is unsalted)
1 cinnamon stick
4 green cardamom pods

Rinse rice three times. Break up cinamon into three or four pieces.
Crack cardamom pods. Add all ingredients to small pot and bring to
light boil. Boil until water level is just below the rice level. Very
carefully stir just a bit if needed to distribute butter and spices.
Reduce heat to low and cover for 15 minutes. Remove cover and continue
for 5 more minutes. Remove from heat, and fluff with a fork.

You may also add shredded mango, shredded coconut, or peas.

2 cups cooked rice, cooled to room temperature
2 T sugar
dash of salt
1 13-oz can crushed pineapple
16 marshmallows, halved
1 cup whipping cream, whipped

Mix together the rice, sugar, salt, pineapple and marshmallows. Fold
in the whipped cream and chill.

But where, pray tell, are the maraschino cherries? That's how my mom
always made it (and I still bear deep, psychological scars).

I like your recipe better, but Jimmy's is technically more correct.
"Glorified Rice" is a rice dessert made with little marshmallows,
crushed pineapple, etc. I'm surprised his recipe called for real
whipped cream rather than Cool Whip or Dream Whip. The recipe is
available in just about any church cookbook; here's one that's more
typical of the genre (notice the excessive use of brand name products):

Glorified Rice

1 cup MINUTE White Rice, uncooked
1 can (16 oz.) fruit cocktail, drained
1 can (8-1/4 oz.) crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup JET-PUFFED Miniature Marshmallows
1 cup thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

Prepare rice as directed on package. Cool.

Place rice in large bowl. Add fruit and marshmallows; mix lightly.
Gently stir in whipped topping; cover.

Refrigerate several hours or until chilled.

Best regards,
Bob

But, but, but I can add more mango, and whip up a coconut cream
topping. I swear ! I'll even add bright red jarred cherries... Or
sliced Kumquats.

Ok, I've seen a few of the church cookbooks, but even they have a few
good recipes in them. Why doesn't Jimmy boy ever post one of the good
ones ?

I've had sauerkraut salad before and it was delicious. I don't know if the
recipe was the same or not. But then, I like kraut.

Let us hope there is plenty of Maalox in the house.
