Jazz up a plain white cake

It is easy to jazz up a plain cake

This is what you will need:
  • 1 prepared white cake mix.  You can also make it from scratch!
  • your favorite jam. I used blueberry
  • top with powdered sugar icing or use a syrup that is the same fruit as the jam.  I used blueberry syrup
Directions:
  • After you mix the cake, pour half of the batter into a greased and floured Bundt Pan
  • spread jam around the center
  • pour remaining batter into pan
  • follow cake mix directions for baking
  • cool in pan for about 15 minutes then turn over onto a cooling rack
  • When cooled completely, slice and arrange on a platter
  • Drizzle with topping

Something amazing about green onions

I found out this bit of information from a very wise person {my husband :) }!

Green Onions will continue to grow!

If you mostly use the green part of the green onion then this post is for you.

Cut the green tops of of the onion and place the white part with the roots in a container of water.  The green will continue to grow and you can use it over and over.

I like to add the green tops to salad, mashed and baked potatoes, meatloaf, homemade pizza, soups, sauces  and beans, only to name a few!
