GIBSONBURG -- After submitting several recipes to the Gooseberry Patch Cookbook two years ago, village resident Lynn Fox had a longtime family recipe published in the latest edition.
Her recipe for monkey taters has been a favorite in her family for years. They make it for holiday gatherings and other special occasions.
She received the cookbook last fall.
The recipe calls for 32 ounces of tater tots; partially thawed works best to mix. Add one, small chopped onion, one can of cream of celery soup, a half cup of sour cream, half cup of melted butter and eight ounces of packaged shredded cheddar cheese, then mix together in a bowl and spoon into a 9-by-13-inch pan. Be sure to put a little bit more cheese on top and then parsley flakes for color. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 300 degrees.
The Gooseberry Patch Cookbook focuses on casseroles, crock pot and skillet recipes.
Fox said she discovered the cookbook two years ago while working at Pills N Packages in Woodville.
She looked through the book on her lunch break and decided to submit five recipes and receive a free cookbook.
She said after submitting her recipes, she forgot about it after not hearing back from cookbook publishers. A year later, she received a phone call from them.
"I love to cook and try new recipes," Fox said. "They (her family) were very excited."
She said she belongs to Zion Lutheran Church and they made a cookbook, to which she also gave recipes.
