Grits Soufflé

This souffle uses grits, garlic cheese roll (I don’t actually know what that is!), egg, and butter/margarine.

Prune Cake

Hamburger Soup

This recipe is similar to the fiery hamburger soup.

Butter Pecan Cake

This is a very rich cake that requires a can of coconut pecan frosting IN the cake batter! Interesting take.

Giblet Gravy

This is the gravy that we have been serving at Thanksgiving for all of my life.

Cheese Soufflé
