Olivia Sipe from Miss Olivia Table

Oliva Sipe from Miss Olivia’s Table in Maryville, Tn had the ladies of Ossoli Circle eating out of her hand as she  demonstrates how to make Strawberry Trifle, a favorite at the restaurant.  Miss Olivia was entertaining with her stories, “secret “tips and favorite recipes. The Not Quite English Trifle is a new favorite dessert among Ossoli member. She was kind enough to share the recipe for the dessert and also her recipe for poppy seed dressing.  The dressing was used on a traditional broccoli salad and was delicious.  See below for the recipes.
