Subject: Sara Lee Chocolate Cake Recipe
Hi Phaedrus,
Would you know of a copycat recipe for the no-longer-made Sara Lee chocolate-iced
chocolate cake? It was sold in the frozen section and packaged like the Sara Lee
pound cake. Thanks for your help.
Sincerely,
Steve
Hi Steve,
Sorry, I can't find a copycat recipe, clone recipe, or even a recipe that claims
to taste similar. I'll post this on the site so that perhaps a reader can help.

Subject: White House Chicken-Corn Chowder
Hi,
Several years ago I partially copied this recipe. I recall that it was made by
a White House Chef for one of the former presidents--a favorite, I think. It has
both creamed and whole kernel corn in it, and celery and carrots.
Thanks,
Sue
Hello Sue,
I cannot find a recipe that mentions the white house, but below are two with
those ingredients.

Subject: Tapioca Hamburgers?
I was hoping you might be able to help me. When I was a young lad back in the
1950's-1960's my late mother had an awesome hamburger recipe made with tapioca.
They were among the best burgers I ever had then and since. I have GOOGLED this
and checked a number of on-line sources but cannot find any recipe for this.
Can you help?
Many Thanks,
A.J.
Hello A. J.,
Sorry, I could not find a hamburger recipe with tapioca. I'll post this on the
site;maybe a reader can help.

Hi Phaed!
I just searched for Minute Tapioca Hamburger recipe and came across this:
barbecued hamburgers
Hope this helps.
Terry
Hi Terry,
Gosh... you know, I saw this when I was looking for that recipe for A.J.,
but I passed on it. The reason I passed on it was that it's more like
a "sloppy joe" than a hamburger. There are no hamburger patties in that
recipe. It's just a mish-mash of ingredients served in a bowl with a
browned bun on the side. I'm pretty literal on recipes. If someone asks
for a "hamburger", then I look for a patty in a sliced bun.
Thanks for sending it. I'll post it.

Greetings.
There is a restaurant in Morro Bay Cali called Bayside Cafe. Several years
ago they had a vegetable lasagne on the menu that was tremendous. They no longer
do so. Maybe you can help?
Thanks!
Michele
Hi Michele,
Sorry, I had no success finding this recipe.

The search engine registry indicates that someone has searched for this:
Italian Eggplant Soup Parmigiana
1 1/2 c. chopped onion
1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
3 tbsp. butter
2 lbs. eggplant, peeled and coarsely chopped
2 c. chicken broth
1/4 c. minced parsley
1/2 tsp. oregano
4 slices tomato
8 tbsp. Parmesan cheese
Saute in a kettle chopped onion and garlic in butter until soft. Add eggplant,
broth, parsley and oregano. Bring to a boil and simmer soup, covered, for
30 minutes. Ladle soup into ovenproof bowls, float a slice of tomato in each
bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle each slice with two tablespoons
Parmesan cheese and bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 10 minutes, or until
the cheese is bubbling and golden. Serves 4.
