100% noob with a basic question regarding expressions

I'm trying to teach myself Scheme for a class.

A typical IF statement looks like this:

(if (condition) (if true) (if false))

My question is is it possible to execute two expressions if the condition is true? Something like this:

(if (condition) ( (if true) (if true) ) (if false))

If the condition is true I want it to print a variable and then use recursion to run the if statement again. As it is I can print the variable but then seem to have no other options.

Thanks!
