Stewed is just fine with me, plain or with some bananas or pineapple added for a treat!

Love mixing it with yogurt, or as an ice cream topping.

I like to cook in the microwave fresh/frozen chopped rhubarb with my oatmeal along with cinnamon. sweetener/sugar and milk. A great way to start the morning .... or sometimes in the evening instead of dessert!

I don't have to have the fancy desserts ... though I can totally enjoy them!

Rhubarb Upside down Cake
1/4 cup butter, melted in bottom of 9 x 13 pan
1 3 oz package Strawberry Jello, dry, sprinkled over butter
10 oz minature marshmallows, spread over Jello
4+ cups cut rhubarb, spread in pan
1 French Vanilla cake mix prepared by directions on the box - maybe slightly less water. Pour into pan.

Bake at 350 for most of an hour. Cover lightly with foil at the end if the center doesn't get done easily. Remove from oven, let stand five minutes, run a knife around the edge and turn out onto a platter. Scrap any goo unto the cake. It's so pretty, you don't want to waste it.

Serve warm or cold. Good with a little whipped cream or Cool Whip.

Second would be Rhubarb Crisp. Third, just steamed rhubarb served cold over ice cream. Rhubarb Muffins.

I never thought of adding it to oatmeal or yogurt. Both sound really good. I'll have to try that!

Yum. I grew up "sneaking" it from the garden. For an extra treat we would smuggle out a little bowl of sugar, then dip the end of the rhubarb and munch away. I still like it like that. My rhubarb patch is new and I am impatiently waiting for nice mature stalks. It makes a great coffee cake topping.

We did the same thing with a stalk and a bowl of sugar. That sure brings back memories!

In Norway we make rhubarb soup and it is wonderful.

Cut rhubarb into pieces and pour water over and bring to a boil in saucepan
When rhubarb is extremely soft add sugar (enough to sweeten to your taste)
Place it all in a blender
Pour into a bowl and allow to cool
Serve cold with cream poured over it.

Wonderful dessert or healthy treat before bed for the kids

Rhubarb Mousse delicious!
4 cups diced rhubarb
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
3 oz. strawberry jello
1/2 cup cold water
1/2 cup whipping cream

Combine rhubarb, sugar and 1/4 cup water. Bring to boil. Cover and cook over medium /low heat 8 to 10 minutes. Add the jello. Cook and stir until dissolved. Then stir in the 1/2 cup cold water. Chill until partially set (about 2 hrs.) You can make it to this point and finish it the next day or at a later time.
Whip Jello mixture until fluffy. Fold in the whipped cream. Spoon into a serving dish. Let it set in the frige about an hour to blend flavors. Garnish w/strawberries. Servers 6-8.

Rhubarb Desert (upside down)

Put 5 cups diced rhubarb in 9x13 pan
Mix 1 small pkg. strawberry jello and 1 cup sugar together... sprinkle over the rhubarb evenly.
1 box white cake mix...prepared as per box instructions.
Put cake batter over top.
Bake at 325 for 55-65 minutes. Let cool & refrigerate. Cut and flip over on plate...serve with cool whip.
It will have a congealed topping when flipped over.
