Welcome to Tina's Recipe Box!

My mom, Tina, cooked just about all of our meals growing up. The only thing she'd make that I wouldn't eat was seafood. Her favorite was linguine in clam sauce.

My dad's claim to fame other than the most basic was what he called Meatball Stew. It was only regular, stew but it had meatballs in it. Oh, and he made peanut butter and chocolate frosting sandwhices. He ate some weird stuff, corn pops in tomato soup and marshmallow fluff in cottage cheese were the stand outs,

After my mom passed away in 2021 I managed to get a hold of her recipe box. It was missing a lot of cards that we couldn't find but here are the ones I do have. I haven't altered what she had written on the cards.
