Piña Colada Pie
Bring it out after a summer barbecue, next to a pot of hot coffee.
A flaky pie crust holds a pineapple filling over a cream filling, all under whipped cream. Toasted coconut, pineapple slices and maraschino cherries go on top, and every slice shows the layers.

Crockpot Beef Barley Soup
The one step not to skip: brown the beef first, because that's where the broth gets its color.

Ingredients
2 lb beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 yellow onion, diced
4 carrots, sliced into coins
3 celery stalks, sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp tomato paste
8 cups beef broth
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp dried thyme
2 bay leaves
¾ cup pearl barley

Directions
1. Season the beef with salt and pepper. Brown it in the oil in a hot skillet in two batches, 3–4 minutes per side, so the browned bits flavor the broth.
2. Cook the onion in the same skillet for 3 minutes until soft, then stir in the garlic and tomato paste for 1 minute.
3. Scrape everything into the slow cooker. Add the beef, carrots, celery, broth, Worcestershire, thyme and bay leaves.
4. Cover and cook on low for 7 hours.
5. Stir in the barley and cook on high for 1 more hour, until the barley is tender but still chewy and the beef breaks apart with a spoon.
6. Take out the bay leaves and taste for salt and pepper before serving.

What's your trick for keeping the barley from soaking up all the broth?

Strawberry Crunch Pound Cake
The cake stand was empty before the coffee had finished brewing.

Ingredients
Cake:
1/2 cup shortening
2 sticks butter (softened)
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 (3 oz.) package instant vanilla pudding

1 teaspoon flour
Frosting:
1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese (softened)
8-10 oz. marshmallow fluff

Directions
1. Heat the oven to 300°F. Cream the shortening, butter, sugar, 1 package pudding and 1 package Jello with a hand mixer; it will look crumbly.
2. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then the milk, until the batter looks like frosting.
3. Add the flour, salt and baking powder, stir in with a wooden spoon, then finish with the mixer.
4. Pour into a well-greased bundt pan, smooth the top and bake 1 1/2 hours. Cool 10 to 15 minutes, turn out and let it cool completely.
5. For the crunch, fork together the butter, the pudding, the flour and only 1 1/2 teaspoons of the Jello; keep the rest. Bake on a greased cookie sheet at 350°F about 10 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until slightly browned.
6. Beat the cream cheese and marshmallow fluff until fluffy.
7. Frost the cooled cake and top it with the strawberry crunch.

Shrimp & Teriyaki Steak Noodles
The trick is letting the noodles cook in the sauce until they soak it all up.
Seared shrimp and browned steak pieces go into one pan with noodles, onion and a glossy teriyaki sauce, then green onion and sesame seeds go on top. It eats like takeout, but it comes from your own stove.
What's your trick for keeping shrimp from going rubbery?

Brown Sugar and Bacon Baked Beans
We tried a few baked bean recipes lately, and this pan was scraped clean before the ribs.

Ingredients
8 slices bacon, chopped
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 cans (28 oz each) pork and beans
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1. Heat the oven to 325°F and grease a 9x13 glass baking dish.
2. Cook half the bacon in a skillet over medium heat for 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook 5 minutes more, until soft.

4. Spread it in the dish and scatter the rest of the chopped bacon over the top.
5. Bake uncovered for 2 to 2½ hours, until the sauce is thick and glossy and the bacon on top is browned.
6. Let it sit 10 minutes before serving so the sauce sets a little.
