Collection of Recipes

Long before computers, the internet and social media, favorite recipes were passed along by word of mouth and eventually written down. This collections features tried and true creations from relatives, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and various club member associates from over Helen E. Smyre’s lifetime. Many were raved about at family gatherings and covered dish events. Enjoy browsing; try or re-try a few. Make delicious memories.
