I was browsing through the newsletter that I get every month from Homemade Gourmet. The newsletter includes meal planning ideas, grocery lists for those meals, what to do with left overs, and Kids Can Cook section. I wanted to share the recipe from the Kids Can Cook section. The reason being is because it was contributed by a 14 year old. Wow! How wonderful to know that a young person is trying to come up with recipes and enjoys making things. 
I was so excited I wanted to share the whole meal that was placed in this newsletter.
For those of you who might already receive this newsletter you can find this in the July 2007 issue. This is Meal 7. For those of you that might be interested in singing up for the newsletter, go HERE. More instructions on signing up are after the recipe.

Texas Cobbler
Everyone’s favorite, Homemade Gourmet® Texas Cobbler will have “yums” emanating from your kitchen. Apple, cherry, blueberry, peach – add your favorite fruit filling to our mix for the easiest old fashioned cobbler! Add butter or margarine, milk and the pie filling of your choice.
Serves: 8
TIP FROM TAMI: For a great dessert to feed a large crowd, use a large aluminum baking pan and 3 Texas Cobbler mixes. Put in the cobbler mix and milk mixture and then pour one line of cherry pie filling, one line of apple pie filling and one line of blueberry pie filling for a patriotic dessert that will satisfy every taste.

I love this patriotic cobbler idea. How clever is this. The founder, Tami Van Hoy, has such wonderful ideas.
