This delicious cornbread recipe came from a dear friend years ago, when I co-authored a cookbook to benefit the Greater Birmingham Humane Society. It is so good! Plus, if you added some cooked bacon you would have a complete meal!

SOUTHERNERS LOVE THEIR PIMENTO CHEESE! IT IS MARVELOUS WITH BUTTER CRACKERS OR ON A TOASTED CHEESE SANDWICH. IT IS EVEN FABULOUS ON A GRILLED HAMBURGER! THIS RECIPE IS A FAVORITE OF MY AUNT JEAN. SHE CAN EAT IT EVERY DAY AND TWICE A DAY! ALSO, USING A BLOCK OF SHARP CHEESE WILL MAKE IT EVEN BETTER!

SOUTHERNERS LOVE THEIR COLE SLAW! WHETHER ITS ‘SERVED WITH HAMBURGERS OR ON TOP OF CHILI DOGS OR WITH BBQ OR FRIED CHICKEN.WE LOVE IT AND EAT A TON OF IT! IN THE PAST, I PURCHASED A QUART OF COLE SLAW FROM A COUPLE OF WELL KNOWN CHAINS,UNTIL THEY QUIT SELLING IT OR ARE NO LONGER IN OPERATION. IT’S SUPER EASY TO WHIP UP IF YOU USE A CHOPPER OR FOOD PROCESSOR

I have made this chocolate pie so  many  times  i can  Make it in my sleep! This was a favorite or my boys growing up and still is! Its easy to  make and all of  the ingredients should be on hand except a pie shell.Making a  Crust  from scratch is superior but a store bought crust is just fine, or shall  I say divine!

This pasta salad is perfect for a crowd. It makes a ton and lasts for days. You can add red bell peppers or celery or another other vegetable your family likes. I  always  double  Italian Dressing because the pasta soaks up the dressing. I add more just before serving to family and friends. It is D- lish!

This fabulous recipe came from The Coca Cola company many years ago. It is definitely a crowd pleaser !it is full of baby marshmallows ,coca cola, and toasted pecans. Yu- mm-y!

I have been making these delightful, crispy, cheesy crackers for 45 years!  This recipe was passed down from my Grandmother to my Mama to me!  They  are delicious  by themselves with a Coca Cola or a glass of sweet tea or accompanying  a big scoop chicken or tuna salad . They taste like more!

I’ve been told that I make the best chicken salad in these parts. And hopefully other parts too! The trick is toasting the pecans first. My toaster oven does that job for me.That brings out their wonderful flavor. The other trick is there must be a sweet element. My number 1 choice is candied sweet pickles. They are a tad hard to find.I also use these delicious pickles in my potato Salad, ham salad,and deviled eggs.Email me if you want To know where I buy my Sweet pickles. Chopped granny smith apples is a good 2 nd choice plus some halved red grapes.I make thus recipe quicker starting with a rotisserie chicken, all white meat and dark meat chopped.I use my food processor to chop but not to fine. You don’t want baby food chicken salad!
