Hey yall! I’m so glad you dropped by. Most of these are southern recipes that have been handed down for generations.There are a few people on Facebook that has begged me to do this for some time now. And I have been meaning to. But when my grandbabies asked me to write down all of my recipes. I knew I had to. Now please don’t expect anything fancy here. I’m just a southern cook that was taught how by my mother and grandmother. Some of these recipes you have probably heard of and others may be new to you. Either way, I hope you find something you just love. If you do find something you like. Leave me a comment or drop me a line. I have always loved to hear from my readers. *Note* I am one of those cooks that never measures anything. I have done it so many times that I can tell by looking at how much I use. If the recipe calls for a cup of sugar. I’m not going to measure it. I’m going to dump in the amount that looks like a cup to me. So, with that being said. I am going to try my best to convert my recipes into exact measurements for you. As long as you follow along somewhat closely, don’t worry, you won't mess it up. Relax! Cooking is supposed to be fun. So come on, stop reading, and let's go have some fun! I love yall and Jesus does too.

Chicken Pot Pie


                 This is a family favorite. Everyone comes back for seconds.


3 or 4 large cans of Veg-All drained. Regular or Homestyle

2 cans of Cream of chicken soup

1 can of Cream of Mushroom soup.

2 heaping tablespoons of Duke's Mayonaise.

2 Heaping tablespoons of sour cream (Optional)

1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese ( Optional)

3 cups of self rising flour.

3 cups of buttermilk. (For a milder taste regular milk may be used.)

1 small or medium onion finely chopped.

1 package of chicken breasts. (5 or 6 pieces)


Boil chicken until done, then shred with fingers picking out any bad pieces.

Mix shredded chicken with Veg-All, all soups, chopped onion, Mayonaise, and Sour Cream. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Pour this mixture into a 9x 13 pan.

Mix together flour and milk. There will be lumps but that's perfectly fine. Pour this over your chicken mixture. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Bake at 350 until the top is golden brown.

**TIP. For a thinned crust cut the flour and milk down to two cups each.


Enjoy!!

Easy Loaded Chicken


Loaded Chicken



 I came across this recipe this morning purely by accident. I was looking on the internet for something and I saw this recipe. As it was, I already had chicken thawing on the counter for dinner. I quickly read over the recipe and noted the basics. As with any recipe, I never follow it step by step, I always switch it up to suit my family. I will be giving you my version of loaded chicken. Just to let you know, my family went nuts over it.

Now you probably aren't going to make as much as I did. I am feeding eight people here and six are adults. We have six people here and I take dinner to my elderly parents. So, It takes a lot to feed everyone!

Ingredients
Chicken breasts
I can of mushroom stems and pieces
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 cans of cream of mushroom soup.
2 chicken bullion dissolved in 1 cup of water. ( Optional)
2 onions peeled and sliced
salt and pepper
cornstarch
Parsley ( optional)


I used a large pack of boneless chicken breasts. Roughly seven large breasts. And a large pack of chicken strips. Roughly twelve pieces.

I sprayed my crockpot with nonstick spray and then layered my chicken with onions. I put the chicken on the bottom, placing onion "rings" to completely cover the chicken, then salt and pepper. More chicken, then onion, then salt and pepper. I continued until all the chicken and onion were in the crockpot.

I did not drain my mushroom pieces. I added the whole can to the three soups and stirred it all together. I poured this over the top of the chicken. I microwaved my two chicken bullion in a bowl with about 1 cup of water and poured this on top of my soup mixture. I cooked this on high for about six hours. Once my chicken was good and done. ( Falling apart like we like it.) I removed it from the crockpot. I mixed three tablespoons of cornstarch with a half cup of hot water. Stirring to make it smooth. I poured this into the crockpot, Stirring it two or three times. I added the chicken back and turned off the crockpot. I removed my crockpot from the cooker to stop any more heat. The only thing left to do is sprinkle a little parsley on top before serving. 

We had this with mashed potatoes, Peas and carrots mix, and dinner rolls.
The whole family loved it!!

Simple Chicken Wings




2 cups of brown sugar
1 cup of Mustard
1/4 cup of soy sauce
5 pounds of chicken wings

Mix brown sugar, mustard, and soy sauce together in a bowl. Measure 1/4 cup marinade for basting and transfer to a small bowl; cover and refrigerate.
Place wings in a large resealable bag. Pour remaining marinade over wings, coating well. Seal and marinate wings at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Remove chicken wings from resealable bag and transfer to a baking sheet. Discard marinade. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Baste wings with reserved 1/4 cup marinade; cook, basting every 10 minutes until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 30 more minutes.
