Yield: 4 burgers

I found this recipe in a stack of recipes in my mother's basement. These burgers have so much flavor you'll never cook them any other way.

• 1-1/2 pounds lean ground chuck
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 4 strips cooked bacon, chopped fine
• 4 teaspoons yellow mustard
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

In medium bowl add cheese, bacon, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

Break beef into small pieces. Using a fork, toss until evenly distributed. Divide into 4 equal portions and lightly pack into 1-inch thick patties. Grill.

Mile-High Strawberry Pie

From Yankee Magazine's Great New England Recipes

Pies and Pastries Recipes

Yield: Makes 1 pie.

Light and luscious. If necessary, a 10-ounce package of frozen, sweetened strawberries may be substituted for fresh, but reduce to taste the amount of sugar in the recipe.

• 1-1/2 cups crushed, fresh strawberries
• 1/4 cup sugar, or more to taste
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 egg whites
• 1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped
• 9-inch pie shell or graham cracker crust, baked

Combine strawberries and sugar, and let sit for about 30 minutes. Put berries, lemon juice, and egg whites in large bowl and beat with electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form. (This may take 15 minutes.) Fold in the whipped cream gently. Pile high in pie crust and freeze before serving.
