Finally, here’s a look at a couple of recipes from past weather blog entires I posted to the WeatherBug Community years ago. I had planned to share these last weekend for July 4th, but due to the technical issues, at least I can share them now!

One of my favorite dishes at the Baron York Tea Room Cafe that closed (after the owner, Dea Irby, moved to North Carolina) was her Chicken Salad Sandwich. For those wishing to re-create (or for the first time try) this delicious dish, here’s the recipe!

Honey Mustard Chicken Salad

Enjoy this refreshing version of a familiar dish. Serve over bed of greens, in a sandwich or in small filo cups for tea savories.

2 cans chicken, white meat, drained or 2 cups baked or boiled chicken, shredded

5 stalks celery, diced

1 cup craisins, chopped (dried cranberries)

1 cup walnuts, chopped

2 cups O’Charlie’s Honey Mustard dressing

2 Tablespoons powdered chicken bouillon

2 Tablespoon dry mustard (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon white pepper

Separate chicken by rubbing between fingers. Add all the other ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate. May need to add more honey mustard dressing after the craisins absorb some of the moistness.

Kick off summer with this refreshing, cool, Mandarin Orange Cake! It’s a breeze to make and delish!

Mandarin Orange Cake

1 package yellow cake mix

1 11 ounce can mandarin oranges, undrained

1⁄2 cup oil

3 eggs

Mix cake, oranges, eggs, and oil. Spread batter in greased cake pan. Bake 30 minutes at 360 degrees. Icing:

1 package instant vanilla pudding (small) 1 8 ounce carton Cool Whip

1⁄2 cup powered sugar

1 8 ounce can crushed pineapple

Mix pineapple, pudding mix, and powered sugar. Fold in Cool Whip and spread over cooled cake. Refrigerate.
