Calling All Good Recipes

I'm ready for some new variety and am looking for recipes whether for breakfast, lunch, snacks or dinner. Any input would be great! Here's one that I love. (This one's for you, Nicole.)

Applesauce Bread:
1/2 stick butter or margarine 1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup solid shortening 1 tsp allspice
1 cup (minus 3 Tbs) sugar 1 tsp nutmeg
1 large egg 1/4 tsp cloves
1 cup applesauce 1 tsp salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional) 1 tsp baking soda
1 3/4 cup sifted flour

Cream together butter, shortening and sugar. Add egg and beat thoroughly. Beat in applesauce. Sift together dry ingredients and add to applesauce mixture. Bake at 350 for 1 hour in a greased pan. Yum, yum! This was a family recipe from my dear roommate Shauna. Thanks!
