VINTAGE BITES: Summertime Vintage Recipes for Your Parties & Picnics

 

The month of June starts the season of outdoor activities and what's more fun than having a backyard BBQ or picnic in the park? Here are a few interesting vintage recipes I want to share with you. Notice the splatters on the old recipe cards from the cooks using them on the countertop as they made their goodies.....The recipes were loved and used over and over. I hope you enjoy reading the old recipes and maybe trying many of them out! 

Oven BBQ Chicken

          Jewish Apple Cake                                Yummy Apple Crisp

An old-fashioned BBQ from days gone by....

                                                        BBQ Hot Dogs aka Frankfurters

Preparing for the grand 4th of July party

                                                          Carrot Cake, who doesn't like it?

Pineapple Sheet Cake, another favorite

                                                        Pepper Jelly is so good! 

Lazy Day Cobbler, yum! 

 

                                                   Cucumber relish for those hot dogs....

Coca-Cola Cake is awesome! 

Chicken Casseroles are always easy 

                               And for all of you who have zucchini in the garden! 

And last, here are a couple of vintage recipes from my Grandmother Delva Black's sister, Nora Black. 

 Nora's Drop Cookies; there is no oven temperature or baking time, I would guess bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. 

Again, I would bake this Chocolate Loaf Cake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes. 

I love vintage recipe cards from long ago kitchens! Happy Summer eating!
