Pear Cobbler Recipe

This is a very easy cobbler recipe:
4 c. peaches, apples, or pears
1 c. sugar

Put in a suace pan and heat until just boiling.

While that is cooking, mix together:
 1 c. sugar
 1 c. flour
 1 c. milk


Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Put a 9" x 13" pan in the oven with a stick of butter in it.  Watch it closely and when the butter melts, take it out of the oven.



Pour this mixture into the butter and don't stir it.  Then pour the fruit and sugar mixture on top of this without stirring.  If you can't stand to not stir it,  it isn't going to hurt anything, this is just what my recipe says to do. :)  Also I usually can't stand it if everything is just clumped into the center, so I end up gently moving it to where I want it.

Bake for 30 minutes or until the bread is done.


NOTE:  I like cinnamon, so I add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the fruit and to the flour mixture.

Red Rice

4 strips bacon
2 green bell peppers, chopped
2 med onions, chopped
2 c. cooked rice
1 - 16 oz. can stewed tomatoes
1 c. tomato sauce
1 tsp. hot sauce
1 lb. cooked shrimp or sausage
1 Tbs. Parmesan cheese

In a large skillet fry bacon crisp and remove to paper towel, save drippings in skillet. Saute peppers and onions in skillet. Add rice, tomatoes and tomato sauce, hot sauce, and crumbled bacon, shrimp/sausage and pepper to taste.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees, pour red rice mixture into greased 2 qt. baking dish, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake 30 minutes. Do not cover.

NOTE: I sometimes use both shrimp and sausage.

Leacy's Peach Cobbler

4 c. peaches
1 c. sugar

Mix and pour into bottom of greased pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until brown.
