Traditional Southern Cornbread
This gem came from my Nana's cookbook, which holds a plethora of very old recipes - some from before the Civil War
Chicken and Dumplings - Slow Cooker
This recipe is my twist on a classic. Making it in a slow cooker means that I can turn this meal into an easy, mostly hands-off, weeknight meal and it's all still from scratch, so I feel good about serving it to my family. The dumplings are soft and fluffy. This comes together so easily and is hearty and delicious.
Sayur Bening (Indonesian Clear Soup)
This is an extremely easy soup to prepare. I think it's one of the recipes that I've mastered when I was a child. Traditionally, it uses spinach. Since I happen to have some sweet potato leaves, I used them instead.
My Great Aunt Annebelles Soup
My Great Aunt Annebelle lived in Union Point, Georgia. Any leftover at the table after all meals even 1 tablespoonful was saved till all was eaten. So her soup which was remarkable, she only used fresh ingredients except for ham. She made her soup probably once a month. She had over 365 acres of land and it had a 3 acres pond. When we had the soup you could bet we also had the leftovers from previous meals served right along side the soup. Her garden was full of wonderful vegetables. Always were in the soup. This is a smaller amount version. Probably about a third of what she made.
