Cheesy Potatoes

1 pkg (2 lbs or 4 cups) frozen hash browns (you can also shred your own potatoes)
1 can cream of chicken, undiluted
1 pt. sour cream
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Mix all ingredients until well blended.  Place in a 9x13 pan.

Topping:
2 cups corn flakes, crushed
1/4 cup butter, melted

Mix corn flakes and butter together and sprinkle on top of potato mixture.  Bake in @ 350 for one hour.

Green Bean Casserole

2 cans green beans, drained
1/2 cup milk
1 can cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
pepper
1 bag/can French Fried Onions

Mix all ingredients except onions together.  Add half of the onions to the mixture.  Pour into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish.  Bake @ 350 uncovered for 30 minutes.  Sprinkle remaining onions on top of casserole and bake an additional 5-10 minutes.


Sweet Corn

2 cups sweet corn (cut off the cob)
1/3 cup water
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tb sugar
1 1/2 Tb butter

Bring water, salt, sugar and butter to boil.  Add corn and cook 3 minutes.  Enjoy!  This freezes well also.

Freezer Cucumbers

Here is a great way to use up cucumbers from the garden to enjoy all year!

7 cups cucumbers, sliced
1 cup onion, chopped
1 Tb salt
2 cups sugar
1 cup white vinegar

Place sliced cucumbers and onions in a bowl and cover them with water.  Sprinkle salt over cucumbers and onions and let stand for 1 hour.  (This is to take the bitterness out of the cucumbers.) Drain water off.  I always try a cucumber at this time and if they are still very bitter you can repeat the process.  Heat the sugar and white vinegar until the sugar completely dissolves.  Cool syrup before pouring on the drained cucumbers and onions.  Keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks or freeze for up to 6 months.
