This web site contains my favorite recipes. As you look at my recipes, you will notice the majority of the are very simple. This is the type of food my family enjoys most. I spent a number of years cooking for Marriott Corp., a country club, a hotel and an old english restaurant and I have come to enjoy cooking the things my family enjoys. Some of them will have stories and memories of the friends and family that share their recipes with me. Others are ones I have collected from cookbooks, magazines or the internet. I have tried to give credit where credit is due. I hope you enjoy some my favorite recipes.


I want to thank my mother for her patience in teaching me to cook. I started cooking for the family when I was in the sixth grade. My mom was working and my dad was going to school at BYU working on his masters degree. Mom would leave me instructions on what to cook for dinner and if I had questions I would call her. Thanks mom for the help and encouragement. I love you.

Under the tab Rick's Healthy Recipes are of course healthy recipes. There are some Vegan, Vegetarian and of course just plain healthy ones.

Raspberry Tapioca Salad

This recipe comes from some very special friends.  When we lived in Ogden in the early 1980's, they babysat Cathi and Dave was our Bishop.  When we moved back to Ogden in the 1990's we ended up back in the ward with Dave and Jean.  They are special friends and we love them dearly.  Vickie does not like tapioca but loves this salad.

Ingredients

3 c. water
1 small raspberry jello
1 small instant vanilla pudding
1 small tapioca pudding
1 package frozen raspberries (thawed) – or 1-2 cups fresh
1 small can crushed pineapple
1 (8 oz.) whipped topping

Directions

Boil water; add puddings and jello. Return to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil 1 minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Fold in drained fruit and whipped topping. Pour into bowl. Refrigerate at least two hours.


You can use different combinations of fruit and jello to suit your preference.
