Husband made ham salad last week from leftover Easter ham. Ground smoked ham, fine diced onion, pickle relish, Miracle Whip. I love it on crackers! (and please, no opinions about mayo vs MW, we are all adults with our own individual tastes, use what you like) 😉

It is a southern Appalachian thing. Macaroni and petite diced tomatoes with pepper, salt and a little of old bays seasoning! They used to have this at decoration at the church! I loved it as a child.

Breakfast for dinner tonight with homemade biscuits from yesterday. It may not be clean or healthy but it’s delicious!

I was craving biscuits and syrup so that’s what I fixed. I grew up on canned biscuits and syrup. My mama was not a biscuit maker. I learned many years ago from my grandma in-law who lived in a holler (sp) in NC. She was the best cook ever!

After two weeks off, I start my chemo back tomorrow. I did some batch cooking today to hold us over on my bad days.
I made 25 containers of chili, vegetable beef soup and cabbage roll soup.
I also baked a meatloaf and pot roast, along with a variety of veggies that filled 16 TV dinner type trays. These will come in handy to pull out of the freezer.

One of my favorite go to meals, when missing my mommy. She would make this meal every week, when we were growing up. Fried pork chops, homemade mashed potatoes, pork gravy, pan biscuits with butter, seasoned sliced tomatoes, seasoned string beans and bacon, pickled cucumbers and onions. It was the heart of country living for us.

Anybody remember the vibrantly green or red colored cinnamon spiced apple rings present at Christmas dinners in the 60’s (and in other decades)? They were scary bright colored but were so delicious. There were whole spiced crab apples as well, equally vibrantly colored but they had a tough skin so I was not as much of a fan.

Supper in Tennessee: fresh garden green beans, corn, and squash, along with pork tenderloin and cornbread. The food of my childhood.😊

How about Grilled barbecue Pork Steak, macaroni and cheese, tomatoes, cabbage and purple hull peas over cornbread. It was delicious 😋

A lot of y'all have mentioned homemade tomato soup. A can of Campbell's and a grilled cheese was a pretty regular lunch growing up. I tried homemade today for the first time. YUMMY! A large can of peeled crushed tomatoes chunky style. Got them cooking and sauteed onion and garlic in olive oil until tender, a chunk of butter and stirred in some flour to thicken. Added milk and stirred until it thickened again and stirred it into the tomatoes and cooked a few minutes more. 2 grill cheese with sharp cheddar and I'm in heaven. The soup only took 10 minutes, not much longer than heating a can.

I don’t think there’s a better summer snack than fresh tomatoes and cottage cheese…

1st picking of green beans! Wayne and I are so proud of these beans. We've never had this many before from 1 picking and the vines are still loaded with little ones to pick in a couple of days. I'll be busy tomorrow canning these little babies!!!
