My favorite Rhubarb recipe is rhubarb/strawberry crisp. Just cut up about 3 cups of rhubarb into little slices. Mix with 3/4 cup sugar, 2 tbsp. flour and a package of strawberry jello. Put in a 9×13 pan. Mix together topping of 1 cup flour, 1 cup oatmeal, 1/2 cup sugar and 1 stick butter. Spread over top of rhubarb mixture and bake at 350 degrees for around 40 minutes or until nice a browned on top.

Our family really enjoys this (especially good with some icecream or whipped cream), I wish I had a bucket of rhubarb to deal with! :-)

This is our hands-down family favorite rhubarb recipe. It tastes so yummy!

Ingredients:

1 cup flour
3/4 cup rolled oats
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, melted
4 cups sliced rhubarb

TOPPING:

1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch

1 cup water
1 tsp. vanilla
Red food coloring

Procedure:

In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter; mix until crumbly. Press half of the mixture into an ungreased 9 inch square baking pan. Cover with rhubarb. For topping, combine sugar and cornstarch in a small saucepan and add water. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat. Stir in vanilla and food coloring. Pour over the rhubarb. Top with the remaining crumb mixture. Bake at 350 for 50 minutes or until bubbly.

Serves: 9

Oh, I love rhubarb! I don’t have any in this yard but my mom has lots. She used to make stewed rhubarb (yummy as is or on ice cream or a plain cake) and a too die for rhubarb relish. I don’t have her recipe for the relish but it is very simular to this one (think my mom’s was bigger).
INGREDIENTS
2 cups finely chopped fresh or frozen rhubarb
2 cups finely chopped onion
2 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon pepper

DIRECTIONS
In a saucepan, combine all ingredients. Cook over medium heat for 30 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Cool; store in the refrigerator. Relish is supurb on bbqed burgers. It does come out a weird colour, kind of a dark greenish brown. Actually doesn’t look tasty but it is.

Hope you like it.
