WESTYFEST PUNCH
I made this for our family reunion over the 4th of July weekend. I bought the 12 oz cranberry juice bottles and 6 oz. pineapple juice cans so I could mix a fresh batch when we ran out, then put the rest of the cans in the pantry for unexpected guests at a later date.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300F; have ready an ungreased 9-inch springform pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the two crust ingredients; mix well.
- Press in the bottom and up the sides of the pan; set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, with electric mixer, beat cream cheese until it is fluffy; slowly beat in sugar, beating until smooth.
- Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in the cream and liqueur until well blended, then pour into the crust-lined springform pan.
- Bake in preheated oven for 60 to 70 minutes or until the edges are set, but the centre jiggles ever so slightly when the pan is gently shaken.
- Turn oven off and leave the oven door open at least four inches; let the cheesecake sit in the oven for 30 minutes, or until the centre now appears set.
- Remove from oven and place on a wire rack on your counter for one hour, or until completely cooled.
- Cover, then refrigerate for at least three hours before serving.
- Just before serving, carefully run a table knife around the edges of the crust to loosen, then carefully remove the sides of the pan.
- If desired, garnish individual servings with whipped cream and a crumbled or chopped chocolate mint (the kind that has the green stripe).

MEXICAN SPICY BEEF TORTILLA
From South American Food and Cooking. This is a lasagna-like combo that is quite flexible to suit your family's preferences. Instead of 12 oz of meat, I used some already cooked beef cubes I had in the freezer and added a can of pinto beans and some corn. Chicken or ground beef would work as well.

GREEN MACHINE SMOOTHIES (MANGO AND AVOCADO)
These are wonderful. Creamy and sweet and super healthy! Feel free to add one whole mango to the concoction (but then I usually add 6 oz mango juice and 6 oz water because I don't like mine super sweet).
