You can't really mess up Mac & Cheese and will likely always have the ingredients on hand!
Macadoo has always been my Mac n' Cheese fan and over the years I've made about as many different types as their are cheeses. I always welcome his feedback and I think we've pretty much nailed it with this version. Mac- aroni & Cheese Ingredients

Love, 9/30/2022 0 Comments Nana's Squash Casserole RecipeSquash isn't our enemy, y'all!When Daddy and I first started dating it was a bit of a shock to my system to eat dinner at his house. Nana has always been a phenomenal cook, but for the longest time I was a fairly picky eater, I know such a shock. Green beans aren't even an option for me and I didn't go near things like squash or butter beans, much less something called a purple hull pea!? Thankfully they wore me down and I grew to love some of their southern staples. I have especially enjoyed adding Nana's Squash Casserole recipe to my collection. In true Teresa fashion I have made some *very* slight modifications over the years. I am including a photo of Nana's recipe that is printed in the St. Francis cookbook. Nana worked at St. Francis as a pharmacist. This is one of those dishes that isn't at all what you think it will be and is truly a crowd pleaser at the Holidays. I am so glad I tried it all those years ago and I hope one day y'all will as well! Squash Casserole

Love, 9/30/2022 0 Comments Four Layer DelightThe holy grail of holiday desserts.I wish there was a way to make trumpets sound when this page is opened. This dessert recipe is hands down the favorite of the Earnest household. My step-dad's mom made this when I was a kid and I remember wanting to steal it and run away to have it all to myself. Not because I had serious issues, but because she would serve us about a 3" square. WOMP WOMP WOMP. I swore one day when I had my own family I would serve ridiculously huge portions and I am proud to say I have lived up to that. I won't lie, this one isn't the quickest recipe and it's a mess in the kitchen but I promise it's worth it!

Love, 9/30/2022 0 Comments Walking TacosAnother Kirsten contribution, this crazy simple "recipe" is fun for gatherings!This isn't a recipe per-se as much as an idea. A fun, easy way to get the crowd involved and make their own "walking" tacos.

Love, 9/30/2022 0 Comments Pepper Steak RecipeThis classic from my childhood got a glow up over the years!When I think of this recipe I think of the 80's. Of riding my bike over to Anna's and then getting into an argument likely over barbies and storming home, of playing ghosts in the graveyard and the CBS nightly news playing on TV.
It's truly the flagship recipe from my childhood and the fragrance of it cooking in our kitchen on Lantern Lane comes right back to me when I make it for my own crew. This has always been a favorite of Emma especially! I have to laugh when I really break it down as a recipe because it's in no way gourmet or even remotely healthy but it's so good and so easy! At some point after I was grown and flown, Grammy gave me this recipe and for years I followed it to a "T". As I became more confident in the kitchen I started to tweak it just a bit to suit our tastes. However, what I have now is very similar to the original I am sure with the addition of water chestnuts. You can't serve this without the 80's mainstay chow mein noodles, if you do a cabbage patch kid loses their adoption papers. 😂 Pepper Steak Serves 4 and can be doubled as needed Ingredients

I hope cooking this will also bring back fond memories for you! Love, 9/30/2022 0 Comments White Creamy Chicken SpaghettiCreamy and rich, this dish is unique and easy to make!This dish is great for a weeknight meal because you can start the chicken in the crockpot and cook on low all day. The chicken alone is so delicious and can be used for many other recipes.

Tip: Serve topped with crunchy chow mein noodles. Love, 9/29/2022 0 Comments Balsamic Tomato BruschettaI first had this appetizer at a friends house and knew I needed the recipe. It's unlike any bruschetta I've ever had in that it doesn't use garlic or basil. Over the years I've modified the recipe to suit our tastes. This easy dish makes the perfect appetizer or party food and is so pretty too!

Love, 9/29/2022 0 Comments Daddy's LemonadeThis perfectly sweet and oh-so-sour drink makes me so happyWhenever my Daddy would visit us or when we would visit him in Tennessee, he would make us his fresh squeezed lemonade. It was truly his specialty and he would squeeze bags and bags of lemons. Not with a juicer either, by hand! As soon as one pitcher ran out he would just make more.
His lemonade is the sweetest, best thing you could ever taste. Foolishly, I never asked him write the recipe down for me so I squeezed up a version that is spot on. I knew I had an exact match when the sugar in one gallon reached 4 cups. YES: FOUR CUPS. My Daddy's Lemonade Ingredients
