| The Classics |
| This recipe is such a favorite that many use only pork and beans as the bean for this dish! With so many varieties to choose from - pinto, black, garbanzo, navy, kidney, white butter beans, snap - beans should be a regular part of a healthy diet. Beans are naturally low in fat and 1/2 cup of beans provides 2-5 grams of dietary fiber and 2-11 grams of protein. Studies show that high dietary folate reduces risk of vascular disease and all beans supply differing amounts of folate. My favorite lima beans growing up the pole and picking fresh.

Great one-dish such as this one are family favorites and are served at potluck suppers, social and family gatherings where friends can catch up on local gossip. Gossip according to Wikipedia consists of casual or idle talk of any sort, sometimes (but not always) slanderous and/or devoted to discussing others.

In 1893 according to legend, a unique popcorn, peanuts and molasses confection that was the forerunner to Cracker Jack caramel coated popcorn and peanuts was introduced by F.W. Rueckheim and Brother, at the World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago's first World's Fair. The similar tasting popcorn, Carmel Corn for some reason always seems to taste beter on a cold wintry night. Caramel corn is also a simple snack that is great for any Halloween party. You could add M&M's, pretzels, candy corn and peanuts. The snack is not only colorful but yummy and is a great addition to a table full of enticing and fun food. | |
| | Carrots and Cajuns! The Sweet and the Salty! One of the nicest tasting Cajun classics that was shared by MawMaw's sister-in-law! If you have fresh carrots you can for this recipe boil two bunches of carrots in one quart salted water. Reserve the liquid.
In 2004, carrots ranked seventh in terms of value of all fresh market vegetable crops in the United States behind tomatoes, head lettuce, onions, snap beans, sweet corn and bell peppers.
| | One of the classics! When done the cake turns a golden brown color and fills the entire house with an aroma that lets you know, it is gonna be good!
| | MawMaw's friend Loretta loves quotes. The quotes are dedicated to her in rewards of sharing this wonderful and very moist fig cake.........
You can list neither all the virtues of fine flour, nor all its uses, how often it serves the baker and the cook. -MARTIAL, A.D. 40-103
I call a fig, a fig: a spade, a spade.
-Menander, 342-292 B.C.
Plato was often referred to as a "fig lover" because of his extreme fondness for these succulent morsels. The ancients believed that figs, one of the oldest cultivated fruits, brought pleasant dreams and should be eaten before dinner when the mouth is at its purest.!!!

Oh yeah, also for Christmas and family gatherings too! | | A delicious (traditional) coconut cake with sour cream and angel coconut filling and a cream cheese coconut frosting! As this cake is very rich, the only side recommended is a lot of love! This recipe uses Ancel's coconut which is a brand name of coconut in heavy syrup sold in Louisiana. Not yet rated | | This dip tastes JUST like buffalo wings! You get the kick; but you can make it as hot or mild as you want. My friends can't stop eating it when I bring it to parties. | |
| | A fun and easy no bake cookie! Lots of memories of my Mamon, Lou Guidry, from Crowley, Louisiana making these. |
