Theresa Christian from Jamaica, NY sent in a wonderful recipe a few days ago called Orange Dreamsicle Cake which I can't wait to try; but I do have a question first: so I really don't need to add eggs or oil to the cake mix?

I am looking for a recipe for a jello mixture that tastes like a creamsicle. I have looked high and low with no results and the lady won't give out her family recipe. The dessert has mandarin oranges, Cool Whip and what else in it?
Thanks,
Angie from WI

I have bought a couple of cans of sardines and would like to know what I can make with them. I usually use salmon and tuna but the calcium in sardines is high as well. I have high cholesterol and am looking at ways of lowering it. I only buy water pack fish.
Thanks,
Susan from Hamilton, Ontario

Quick, Easy Strawberry Shortcake
I don't know if this qualifies for a recipe but it sure makes for a substitute Strawberry dessert if you are pressed for time or don't have ingredients on hand!
Ingredients
Directions
Fix strawberries just like you would for strawberry shortcake. Crush or break-up ritz crackers (this substitutes for the shortcake). Cover crackers with strawberries and add milk or cream if you wish. Believe me this almost tastes like the real thing!

Ingredients
Topping:
Directions
Beat two eggs until thick. Beat in sugar and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt; add to egg mixture. Heat milk and butter to lukewarm; remove from heat and add to batter. Batter will be thin. Pour into greased and floured 8 inch square pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until cake tests done.
Immediately combine ingredients for topping and spread over hot cake. Broil until light brown, about 5 minutes. Watch to prevent over browning.
Variation: Add 1/4 tsp. each cinnamon and nutmeg and 1/8 tsp. cloves to flour mixture in Lazy Daisy Cake recipe. Proceed as directed.

Ingredients
Directions
In small bowl, sprinkle yeast in warm water, stirring to dissolve. In a large mixing bowl, lightly beat the egg, stir in sour cream, honey, oil and salt. Add dissolved yeast and 1 1/2 cup white bread flour, beating with a wooden spoon until combined. Stir in whole wheat flour, wheat germ, rye flour and cracked wheat.
Stir in enough remaining white bread flour to make a soft dough. Dough will be sticky. Add just enough to be able to knead. Knead 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl and cover.
Let rise until doubled. Punch down, knead a few times and make into a loaf. Let rise until doubled. Bake 30-35 minutes at 375 degrees F, until slightly browned. Remove from pan and place on cooling rack. Butter top and sides. Cover with towel. Serve. Makes one loaf.
