How to Make Three Great Recipes

My Cuz Martha is a cook that wants simple quick recipes that are fool proof. When she sends me a recipe I know this. Today Cuz Martha sent me a recipe for Tuna cups that will knock your socks off. It is also simple to assemble and does reheat well. I could see this being used for a bridal shower or other type party. Myself I like one with a large glass of ice cold tea and lemonade mixed for a late night snack. Y'all put on the coffee, roll up your sleeves, take off your rings, wash your hands, and lets make Cuz Martha's Tuna Cups happen today.
