Today we celebrated our daughter's birthday and I made her a delicious dessert, my Heavenly Cherry Delight is easy and pretty. It would also be a nice dessert for Christmas.
The recipe for my Heavenly Cherry Delight is as follows:
Heavenly Cherry Delight
Bake a yellow or white cake from a mix, when baked and cooled crumble into a bowl and set aside.
In another bowl combine 1-8oz pkg. of reduced fat cream cheese, 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar, 2 t. vanilla, and 1 pkg. instant vanilla pudding and 1c. milk, mix well and fold in 8oz. of Cool whip.
In a large glass bowl place 1/3 of the crumbled cake, top with 1/2 of the pudding mixture, another 1/3 of the cake, topped by the remaining pudding mix, top with remaining cake, when ready to serve top with 1 can cherry pie filling and serve.
If you prefer you can use blueberry pie filling or apple, you can even place a combination of fresh fruits that have been sprinkled with 1/2 sugar.
This has been a family favorite for years. Hope you enjoy sharing it with you family.

Vegetarian Vegetable Soup
Today I made some Vegetarian Vegetable Soup, no meat, only vegetables and great flavors. Try it, you too will like it.
My recipe for Vegetarian Vegetable Soup is as follows:
Vegetarian Vegetable Soup
In a large stock pot heat 7 qt.s of water over medium heat. Add 1 bag of oriental vegetables, 1 large bok choy (sliced into pieces and washed well), 2 c. corn, 2 c. shredded carrots, 1 pkg. sliced mushrooms, 1/2 c. light soy sauce, 1 T. cumin, 1 T. garlic powder, 1 T. onion powder, 1-2 t. crushed red pepper flakes, salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until vegetables are soft. Serve with bread and fresh fruit.
I found this soup to be very easy and pleasing to most picky palettes. You can add some chopped cooked chicken or some cooked smoked sausage if you would like.
Perfect for those cool Fall evenings.
