. PAGE SIX Post Cookbook BY JOAN KINGSBURY Jane Heffernan describes herself as a “plain cook”, preparing meat and potato meals. Judging by Jane’s recipes, however, plain doesn’t have to be unappealing. Jane has provided Post readers with recipes for Banana Bread, Apple Pancakes, and Chicken and Peppers, all of which sound truly delicious. Banana Bread is nice to serve as a dessert, with breakfast or on a cookie tray. Easy to make, Banana Bread is an old favorite. For a new breakfast treat try Apple Pancakes. Finely chopped apple give these pancakes an in- teresting taste. A dot of butter and a sprinkle of powdered sugar provides a perfect finishing touch for Apple Pancakes. Jane’s Chicken and Peppers is an Oriental- type dish. Strips of chicken breasts are marinated slightly in a mixture of soy sauce, sherry, cornstarch, garlic powder and sugar. Using either red or green peppers, slice them in strips, then stir fry in a skillet with thinly sliced mushrooms until tender- crisp. After removing vegetables, cook the chicken in the same skillet before combining with vegetable mixture. Jane serves Chicken and Peppers over rice. The Heffernans moved to their home on Pioneer Avenue a year ago. Jane is originally from Kingston while her hus- band Tom, who is af- filiated with the Sunday Independent, is a Lehman native. The couple has a son Tom, 7, a student at Dallas Borough Elementary School. A student at King’s College Jane is majoring in Information Systems. Doing handcrafts is a favorite pastime; working on pine cone wreaths, ‘making’ dough ornaments or working on felt and sequin ornament kits. Jane is a member of the Dallas Junior Women’s Club.
