Easy Summer Salsa

Submitted by Dia Dixon

One large jar of Pace Picante Sauce (not chunky)

Two cucumbers, peeled and diced. One bell pepper, diced, one can of medium Rotel. Stir everything together and serve chilled.

Coconut Pound Cake

From the kitchen of Donna Fuller

3 sticks butter or margarine

3 c. sugar

6 eggs

8 oz. sour cream

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. soda

1 1/2 c. coconut

1 tsp. vanilla or lemon extract

Have eggs, coconut and butter at room temperature to avoid cake failure.

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Grease and flour tube pan.

Using electric mixer, cream sugar and butter well. Add eggs one at a time; mix well after each. Add sour cream. Add flour, salt and soda. Mix well. Fold in coconut. Pour into pan.

Bake about 1 hour (will be golden brown on top). Cool about 5 to 10 minutes. Invert on cake plate. Cool. Cover with foil.

It's better after sitting a few days.

Enjoy!
