Meatless Monday:  Pizza di Spaghetti

I'm not a big fan of leftovers.  Eating the same thing two times inside of a week is just not something that excites me.  That having been said, I can't in good conscience just throw out perfectly good food.  It wastes money and teaches my kids a terrible lesson.  So I like to … [Read more...]

Meatless Monday:  Fried Mac & Cheese

Going meatless for a day, a month, or a lifetime doesn't mean that you cannot have fun with your food.  I think that, in the South, there is a consensus that, if it can be fried, it should be fried!  Today, we are looking to fry Macaroni and Cheese!  Let me tell you, it felt … [Read more...]
