The Uncola as a Secret Ingredient

I'm a 7-Up girl. Please don't serve me Sprite, and certainly not Sierra Mist. I was tickled to find this recipe book at a recent sale. It's called "7-Up goes to a Party!"

Who knew you could make all this great stuff with a soft drink?

Meat marinade, biscuits, salad dressing, "sophisticated" baked beans, and...

Anyone for a Jellied Tomato Olive Mold? Perhaps not.

But, I will be making this Frozen Fruit Loaf for our 4th of July party. I'll use blueberries and strawberries for color. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Does 7-UP ever meet whiskey or brandy at the party?
(sorry, sorry) I think I had that frozen fruit dessert once, it was rather good!

Gosh, I haven't had a 7-Up in ages! Definitely let us know how that fruit mold turned out, and include photos in all it's fruity glory, because it looks positively yummy!

I talked my mom into giving me a bunch of her old cookbooks from the 60's when I moved out. They have the greatest recipes in there. I always keep an eye out for them when I'm out hunting.
