A Marvelous Work with Wonder Bread, Jesus-Fed-the-Multitudes Tuna Helper, and I Knead Thee Every Hour Rolls are among the special heirloom recipes reluctantly shared by Sister Christensen in No Man Knows My Pastries. This faux cook book chronicles the special love affair Mormons have with lowbrow eating and provides easy, step-by-step directions for preparation of the likes of bologna mock chicken wings.Sister Christensen illustrates her favorite culinary hints with photographs of herself with her buns in the kitchen and of Brother Christensen at his TV tray wolfing down her delectable delights. Her ingenious Jell-O-Matrix will help readers match flavors and ingredients with appropriate party themes; her Mauve Wedding Punch is guaranteed to match bridesmaids dresses; and kids will massacre her Mountain Meadows Muffins. From In-Breads to Just Desserts, everyone can savor the self-identified kreme of Utah cuisine.Ive been mobbed for a recipe after more than one pot luck, Sister Christensen admits in her preface. It makes me sad to think there are brethren and sisters who have not discovered the joy of diced Spam casserole. Out of duty to the betterment of ward dinners everywhere, she was persuaded to go into print. So, sisters, she concludes, get out your aprons and lets get cooking.
