This month's cookbook is one that belonged to Grandmother. "Home Cooking Secrets of Monroe". It was put out, as a fundraiser I imagine, by the Monroe Junior Woman's Club. There's no date on it, but I'm thinking it's late 60's or early 70's. While reading it, I recognized lots of names in there. Some are people I know and some are names I just remember hearing at one time or another.
There are lots of fun recipes in here. I made this one a few weeks ago and did enjoy it. It smelled divine baking in the oven. I will try it again and probably tweak it just a tad. Enjoy!
Mandarin Orange Nut Loaf
1 11oz can mandarin oranges, drain and save juices
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
3 cups Bisquick
1/2 cup chopped nuts (I used pecans)
Measure reserved juice and add water to make 1 cup. Mix with sugar, egg and milk. Add Bisquick and beat 1/2 minute. Stir in nuts and oranges. Bake in greased floured loaf pan at 350 for 50 minutes.
*The next time I make this, I think I am going to roughly chop the oranges so that they are more even distributed throughout the loaf.
