I'm a southern gal with a passion for cooking and baking from scratch, the old fashioned way!
I’m always at a loss when it comes to a side dish for Indian cuisine. After making these tasty little fried eggplants thet other evening, I have a feeling that my Indian side dish crisis is officially averted.
These fluffy golden nuggets are crispy, ever so lightly battered, and rich with the flavors of a delicious yellow curry. The juicy eggplant inside perfectly compliments the spicy, golden brown crust. Once you taste one of these, it will be hard to stop.
Shrimp Scampi has been one of my favorite dishes for years. When I was little, my dad would tease me and call it “Scamp Shrimpi.”
This version is not only tasty, but pretty easy and quick too! The shrimp are cooked perfectly, and the lemon and white wine blend beautifully with the shallot, garlic, and parsley for a light but satisfyingly rich dish.
This recipe captures some of my favorite fall flavors – absolutely delicious! The pork is tender and juicy, sweet with the flavors of the apple juice and cinnamon. The sweet potatoes melt in your mouth. And the apples? Let’s just say it’s like having dessert built-in to your meal!
I couldn’t say it better than my mom did: It’s fall!! It’s time for Pumpkin Bread!!
Here is what she wrote to me in an email when I asked her about the history behind her delicious pumpkin bread…
Aaaahhh, the end of the summer. Tomorrow marks the first day of fall here in Georgia. Last night, the hubs and I enjoyed such a lovely evening at my parents’ house in Atlanta. And Nanny herself was there with one of her famous pies.
I admit it, dear readers: I’ve been holding out on you.
I’ve been saving some of the best of the best recipes in my family . . . saving them for a rainy day. Well, I’m not sure whether you’ve heard, but it’s raining buckets here in drought-ridden North Georgia, so it’s about time for me to share one of these precious gems with you all!
