I Need a Good Rhubarb Recipe

I've tried three different rhubarb recipes in the past week - rhubarb crumble, rhubarb coffee cake and rhubarb/strawberry scones.  One was good, one went went straight to the garbage and the other is just ok.  All of these recipes came from Pinterest, so I guess I can say I pinned this one for Rhubarb Crumble, the original pin came from Rhubarb Central - I would definitely make it again.


The first day we had it with a little real whipped cream, the second day we had vanilla ice cream - either way it was delicious

I have no pictures to document the coffee cake at all - it didn't turn out at all, it went straight to the garbage!!  That makes me so mad when that happens!!!


Today I made Strawberry Rhubarb Scones - here's the original pin - I was hopeful for these, they are just ok, I had one plain, maybe the next one will be a bit better with a little butter.  Last year I blogged about the Strawberry Rhubarb Pie with Meringue that I made - that's a recipe that always turns out!!  Help me - if you have a great rhubarb recipe, I'd love to try it!!  Please share...

They kind of look like cookies, they really are scones - drop scones! 


I was happy for my Royal SMASHing post to be featured on the new forward & reverse linky party at The Blog Post Office - thanks so much for the shout out!  I'm linking up with The Blog Post Office  again today - check it out!

Lots of Strawberries

We went picking strawberries on Saturday


It only took half an hour to pick these two baskets!


I had rhubarb too, so that means a strawberry/rhubarb pie - Pyrex Pink is perfect for this combo


Strawberry Rhubarb Pie with Meringue - yummm!! The recipe is from Taste of Home - click here for the recipe - I used my own recipe for pie crust - Pyrex Pink is perfect!


I made this Strawberry Arugula Salad twice this week - of course, I used Pyrex again! My mother in law gave me this bowl, and it turned out to be one that is really used a lot!!  This could be our new salad for the summer - another one from Taste of Home - here's the recipe


I love the strawberry/rhubarb combination - so I searched for a nice muffin recipe - these are really tasty!!!  The recipe for Nut Topped Strawberry Rhubarb Muffins is from Taste of Home too!


The main reason I went picking was to make strawberry jam - here they are, crushed  and whole - of course, the Pyrex was put into use again..


Two batches of strawberry jam - I used the recipe included with in the  Certo package - here it is!


I'm linking up to Rednesday - it's a perfect post for everything red!!  I'm also linking up with The Bunny Hop Party and Open House Party for the very first time!
