In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make a great side dish for lunch or dinner—Bettys Orange Glazed Beets. The beets are glazed with a paste made of brown sugar, butter, flour, and orange juice. The combination of sweet and tart with the beets is fantastic! Beets are a natural source of beta carotene, a component that promotes good health and prevents disease. Ingredients: 16 oz. can sliced beets 1 tablespoon butter or margarine 2 tablespoons flour 2 tablespoons brown sugar ½ cup orange juice Heat 16 oz. beets in their own liquid. In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Remove from heat. Add 2 tablespoons flour, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and ½ cup orange juice. Return to heat, stirring constantly until thickened. Drain heated beets. Add sauce to beets, and stir gently to coat. Pour into a nice serving dish. These beets are an excellent accompaniment to almost any meat entree. Happy beet-eating!

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make healthy and delicious broiled breaded catfish. In this recipe the breading holds the moisture in, so that the cooked catfish is light and flaky—delightful! Ingredients: ½ stick butter or margarine, melted (I used margarine.) 2 tablespoons lemon juice ( I used reconstituted lemon juice from a jar.) 4 or 5 fresh catfish fillets (1 ½ pounds) 1 cup Italian-seasoned dry breadcrumbs Lemon wedges for garnish In a small, shallow bowl, combine ½ stick melted butter or margarine and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. In a second small, shallow bowl, place 1 cup of Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs. Dredge each piece of fish in the breadcrumbs, then dip in the butter mixture, and dredge again in the breadcrumbs. Place the breaded fish fillets on the rack of a broiler pan. (I cover mine with aluminum foil for easy clean-up; you can spray with cooking oil spray instead.) Broil the fish about 5 or 6 inches away from heat, with the oven door partially open, for about 10 minutes, or when fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Watch the broiling process carefully, as the breading can get too dark. If the breading darkens before the fish flakes, you may want to use a spatula and carefully turn each fillet over to brown the other side while the fish cooks completely. This fish will be very tender, so you will need to carefully transfer it to a serving platter when done. Garnish with lemon wedges, which may be squeezed over the top of the catfish before …

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Classic Waldorf Salad. This salad was originally created in 1893 at the Waldorf Hotel (later to become the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel).

In this video, Betty responds to a viewer request for a Guacamole dip recipe. This is a wonderful version of Guacamole–everyone’s party favorite! Ingredients: 2 Haas avocados, peeled and cut into chunks (I put the chunks in a bowl and sprinkle them with a little lemon juice to keep them from turning brown while I get everything else prepared.) juice of 1/2 lime 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (Start with 1/4 teaspoon and taste when dip is done. Increase salt to 1/2 teaspoon, if desired.) 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped 1 Roma tomato, chopped 2 tablespoons cilantro, snipped 1 large clove of roasted garlic, minced. (I saute my garlic in olive oil until softened after mincing.) 1 tablespoon sliced jalapeno peppers from a jar, finely diced dash of ground black pepper In a small bowl, combine 2 chunked avocados, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the juice of 1/2 lime. Mash with a fork until blended. It can be a little lumpy. Add 1/2 chopped red onion, 1 chopped Roma tomato, 2 tablespoons snipped cilantro, 1 clove of minced, roasted garlic, 1 tablespoon chopped sliced jalapeno peppers, and a dash of black pepper. Blend all ingredients together with a spoon. When blended, pour the Guacamole dip into a serving dish, and serve with restaurant style tortilla chips.

In this video, Betty demonstrates a Brown Sugar Glazed Ham recipe, dating back to her college days (in the ’60′s). Being a starving student, Betty almost always had breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the university cafeteria. One item that was served repeatedly was Glazed Ham. Betty (using her ever-analyzing food talents) created the following recipe as an imitation of the ham served in the cafeteria, and she has continued to make it throughout her 39 (almost 40!) years of marriage. Ingredients: 1 canned ham (I used Hormel brand, 5 pounds. You may use any brand, and reduce it to 3 pounds, if desired.) 1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed 2 tablespoons prepared mustard 1 teaspoon orange juice (You may use another flavor of juice or a juice drink.) Remove the canned ham from the container and place in a crock pot on low for 6 to 8 hours. You may need to cut it into two pieces to get it to fit in the crock pot. When you are ready to put your Brown Sugar Glazed Ham recipe together, remove the ham from the crock pot, and place it on a tray for slicing. Use a kitchen knife, slicer, or electric knife to slice the ham into equal pieces. You may decide to leave some of the ham unglazed for guests who prefer to skip the brown sugar flavor. In a small bowl, mix 1 cup of firmly packed brown sugar with 2 tablespoons of prepared mustard. Use about 1 teaspoon of orange juice to get them to combine. Now spread the tops and bottoms of your sliced ham and place them in an appropriately-sized …
