Ohmygosh! This is one of my all-time favorite things to take to a gathering of friends. Everyone devours this dip, and I always leave with an empty bowl. The freshness of this salad is unbelievable, and on top of all that, it’s healthy too! This would be the perfect thing to take to a Super […]

This dip is one of the easiest, most delicious dips I’ve had in a long time. It’s as simple as mixing together two things, spreading it in a dish, and sprinkling things over the top. As Ina would say, “How easy is that?” I first tasted this dip at our family reunion back in May, […]

I am a die-hard seafood lover, especially shrimp. I just can’t get enough of it! It almost killed me when I was pregnant and could only eat fish/seafood once a week. I would ask my doctor every single week if I could please have more seafood, praying he’d change his mind, but he never did. […]

Hamburger meat, as we call it here in the South (elsewhere you probably call it ground beef) is a staple on the weekly dinner menu. It’s easy to find, inexpensive, and cooks quickly. There are a gazillion different things to do with it, and this is one of my favorites. No matter how many times I […]

Where would you find people throwing some fatty ingredients like mayonnaise and sour cream on top of cornbread, and calling it a salad? In the good ole South, of course! If you make this get ready to eat one of the most delicious “salads” you’ve ever tasted! It’s full of flavor and yummy goodness. This […]
