Shepherd’s Pie

This is not a family traditional recipe, but it IS one of my personal favorites. We use Dylan’s mashed potatoes for the topping, but do add the parmesan cheese for that.

Broccoli Casserole

Combine mushroom soup, celery soup, cheddar cheese, and Ritz crackers with broccoli for this casserole from my grandmother, Thelma Beatty.
