Tortellini Carbonera

Bloody Marys

The best home-made Bloody Mary recipe I have encountered.

Sangria, Madrid-Style

Sangria in the style of the tapas bars in Spain, not the wine-drenched fruit salad that most people expect.

Casserole Bread

Guacamole (Avocado Dip)

A slightly more elaborate version of the standard guacamole salad

Robin's Spaghetti Sauce

Can be used as a standard sauce (with or without meat) for a variety of pasta dishes.

Banana Pudding

A fairly simple recipe for a simple dessert

Squash Fritters

An unusual variation on the traditional fried squash recipe.

Spaghetti Salad

A simple pasta salad that tastes as good as it looks. This dish makes a nice alternative to potato salad.

Texas Beef Skillet

A one-dish meal, quick and simple. It also lends itself to several variations.

Oven Fried Chicken

A relatively easy, classic chicken recipe

Pistacchio Salad

Easy, tasty side dish, especially at holidays.

Franks' Lasagna

One of the best lasagna recipes we've run across; not as complicated as many but tastier than most.

Corn Bread

Black Eyed Peas of Texas

This makes a good traditional New Years Day dish, especially when served with cole slaw and corn bread.

Pecan Pie

This recipe was originally found in the 1950s edition of the Better Homes and Garden cookbook but was extensively modified by Allene Franks.

Broccoli and Rice Casserole

A simple but tasty dish. We've used it for parties and at holiday meals for years.

Cranberry Relish

You may or may not like this dish. It is distinctly different in both taste and appearance.

Sticky Balsamic Ribs

Requires both indoor and outdoor cooking in order to achieve the best results.

Chicken and Dumplings

The original, relatively easy and quite tasty. There is a variation from Robin Franks.
