Betty in Me. was asking how many servings the Strawberry Special Salad made, and there wasn't any serving amount given in the recipe, but I've
taken it to dinners, where there was around a dozen guests, and there was plenty of salad for everyone. If there are other dishes to chose
from, such as at a potluck, people generally only take a spoonful of everything.

Here is a quick and delicious dessert I'd like to share with the
readers.

Cherry Upside Down Cake

Topping:
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3 tbsp. butter
1 can (21 oz.) cherry pie filling
Cake:
1 yellow cake mix (with pudding in it)
1 cup water
1/3 cup cooking oil
3 eggs

Place brown sugar and butter in bottom of a 9 x 13 inch greased baking pan. Place pan in 350º oven for 4 to 5 minutes, until butter is melted. Spoon pie filling evenly over brown sugar mixture. In large bowl, combine all cake ingredients; beat at low speed of electric mixer until moistened. Beat 2 minutes at high speed. Pour batter evenly over pie filling. Bake at 350º for 50 to 55 minutes, or until toothpick inserted near the middle, comes out clean. Run knife around edge of cake to loosen.; immediately invert onto serving tray. Cool completely. Serve with whipped cream if desired.
12 to 16 servings.
