DEVILED CLAMS OLD FASHIONED STYLE (ALMOST!)



Deviled Clams Old Fashioned Style (Almost!) image

This is a variation of recipe #14972 (thank you Cathy). It is spicier, and the chowder clams have an earthier flavor reminiscent of one of my favorites of many years ago. These freeze well and defrost/reheat easily in a microwave for quick dinners.

CLAM STUFFING BAKE



Clam Stuffing Bake image

It seemed like Mom was always standing at her old black stove, coming up with recipes. This was one of the oldtime favorites. I loved stuffed clams any time of the year. I buy them fresh when in season and save the shells. Then, when I can't buy them fresh, I use canned. -Lillian Butler Stratford, Connecticut
