Chicken Pho
by Kim Vealey
Loaded with light and fresh flavors, Chicken Pho is a fun twist on the same-old-same-old bowl of chicken noodle soup. The broth is best made ahead of time, in either a slow cooker, or on the stove top. Then allow it to cool completely and skim off any congealed fat. The poached chicken and rice noodles can also be made ahead for time saving purposes.
Baked Falafel with Lemon Tahini Sauce
Crispy, fluffy baked falafel are served with a bright and creamy lemon tahini sauce as a salad or filling for pita pockets.

Jell-O Poke Cake
by tadacreations on July 24, 2009 in Cakes, Desserts
Recipe Description
This is THE easiest cake in the world! It’s the one I turn too when I can’t think of something to make, because I always have these 3 ingredients on hand. This is a fun one for kids to help you make. Customize the taste by using any flavor Jell-o you like.
Preparation Instructions
Bake the cake per package directions.
Boil 2 cups of hot water and dissolve the Jell-o (we prefer Cherry or Strawberry).
While cake is still warm, poke holes all over with a fork.
Pour the still hot Jell-o over the cake, letting it soak into the holes.
Cool cake in fridge for a couple of hours so the Jell-o has time to cool. Top with one small tub of Cool Whip and serve. Keep leftovers refrigerated.
Your kids will thank you!
Ingredients
- 1 box Yellow Or White Cake Mix
- 1 box Of Jell-o, Small, Any Flavor
- 1 tub Cool Whip, Small

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I had this cake in girl scouts when I was younger (an orange creamsicle version) that I never learned how to make.

This is so yummy and refreshing. It’s a great summer treat.

This is a favorite cake of my families. My daughter requested this cake for her 24 birthday. She always made it for her friends while in high school….this is a recipe with many memories. It’s funny to see you are from Minnesota. I’m from MN too! It’s funny because….I don’t think you can live in MN without experiencing Jell-O poke cake!

Super memory jogger – what a fun cake this was when I was little.
Anyone know if you could do these as cupcakes? Hmmm, I’m gonna give it a whirl !
AMC on 7.25.2009
my husband’s favorite!! thanks. cupcakes would be cool…
cheesecakemaster on 7.25.2009
Oh, yeah! I make this last week (and just bought more white cake mix) for guests. I almost always make it a round layer cake with two different, but complimentary flavors. This weeks cake was berry blue and cherry! My fave, and a Christmas MUST HAVE, is cherry and lime! Easy and always a winner!
PS, I have done cupcakes as well for school parties and it works out well too. Very refreshing cake.

This is such an easy, refreshing dessert to make in the summertime. Thanks for posting!

I’ve prepared this cake with one addition: Add a layer of prepared pudding on top of cake, before the cool whip. I’ve made strawberry jello with chocolate pudding and, an odd favorite, lime jello with pistachio pudding. Just prepare instant pudding according to pkg directions.

I made this today and it was PERFECT. I used Strawberry but will definitely make it again with Orange for a Creamsicle affect. An easy, fun summer dessert!

I almost didn’t even post this one because it’s so simple, but now I’m glad I did! My Grandma would come visit us before we moved from South Carolina (she was a Minnesotan transplanted to New Orleans) and she said it was my brother and my’s favorite and would be gone in just one day. It definitely brings back memories of happy days.
I bet cupcakes would be wonderful. Just pour the Jell-o from a small spout for better control.
