RS Birthday Celebration


A huge thank you to our RS board for a great Birthday celebration.  They prepared a perfect dinner to go along with just the right amount of a spiritual message and time to visit with members of the RS.  We appreciate all of their hard work and we also appreciate everyone coming to support.  We know it's hard to pull away from family responsibilities at times, but these activities help strengthen us as a ward family.

If you are interested in re-watching or were unable to attend and would like to watch this short video clip from that night, here is the link:

The board also had several requests for the recipes from dinner:

Tomatillo Dressing
1 Ranch dressing packet
2 or 3 tomatillos
1 cup mayo
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup cilantro
3 cloves garlic
Juice of 1 lime
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper if you like a little bite
Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend.  Tastes better if it has chilled for awhile before serving.

Sweet Pork
1 (20 oz) bottle Coke
1-2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup french dressing
1 envelope onion soup mix
2 garlic cloves minced
Boneless pork loin

Combine all ingredients and pour over pork loin in crock pot.  Cook on low all day long, shred meat about 2 hours before serving.  It allows the juices to get in.


Cilantro lime rice
1 1/4 cup rice
Juice of 2 limes
2 1/4 cup water or chicken broth
2 TBS. cilantro
3/4 tsp. salt

Bring rice, salt, and liquid to a boil.  Reduce heat, cover and cook for 20 minutes or until tender.  Fluff with a fork and stir in cilantro.
