At the request of my sis, I am sharing some menu ideas. She and I have both complained heartily about how easy it is to get in a rut and cook the same old things week after week. Now, I am not claiming to be any kind of cook. But maybe you'll find something to spark your brain and your supper. Good Eating!

Let me explain something.

When I have "Grandma meal" listed,

what I am talking about is a supper like the ones I have eaten many

times at my Grandmothers house.

A quick, easy but hearty meal consisting of Grandma's

amazing skillet cornbread and any veggie she has on hand.

For example, the other night, we had cornbread, black eyed peas, sliced tomatoes and onion,

pineapple, rice, green beans and corn on the cob.

And of course the obligatory honey, butter and black strap molasses

 for the cornbread. Add some sweet tea and you have one

tasty, moderately healthy and light-weight meal.

It is a favorite of my family.

 

I honestly think my kids could eat their weight in cornbread.

 

Maybe next week I'll share my recipe.
