Gooey Butter Cake1 yellow cake mix1 stick margarine melted2 eggs,Mix all of this and spread in a greased 9x13 inch pan.1 8 oz package of cream cheese softened3 cups powdered sugar2 eggsMix these together until smooth and then pour on top of the cake mix in the pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 35 minutes or until the top starts to brown. Let it cool and then enjoy. I prefer mine cold, so put it in the fridge, but it doesn't have to be kept in the fridge. Give it a try!
 
My pasta salad is always a hit!I boil pasta (either elbow macaroni or rotini, usually rotini) then drain and put in a large mixing bowl. I then use one can (sometimes two cans depending how much i am making) of stewed tomatoes, add to the mixing bowl and mix well. Then I add one bottle of Zesty Italian Dressing, mix well. Then, I add 1 cup of chopped onion, 1 ½ cup chopped scallions, and mix well again. Then, last, to top it off, I sprinkle with McCormick Salad Supreme Seasoning. I then place in the fridge, allow to cool, and serve cold!
