Greens from Cameroon

Posted for ZWT. I haven’t made this yet so the yield and time to make are a guess. Use collard greens, kale, mustard greens, swiss chard or spinach.

Mexican Rice

Are you craving that great Mexican rice from your favorite taco stand? Here it is. This is just like a good Mexican restaurant rice. Many recipes taste good… but the texture just isn’t right. You know how it is… you have prepared scores of Mexican rice recipes but always have been disappointed. It may be delicious but kinda “gloopy and wet.” Try this. Everything is pureed and cooked in. There are no chunks of anything… just dry fluffy rice with all the seasonings and just the tiniest hint of a tomato flavor. I will throw away all of my Mexican rice recipes- this is the one I have been looking for for years! I don’t own a rice cooker but some people have had disappointing results using one. You will also need to adjust your cooking time if you want to use brown rice. I recommend following the cooking instructions as directed. Proceed at your own peril if you stray. Enjoy.

Southern Buttermilk Biscuits

These buttermilk biscuits are authentic. This recipe came from my great-great-grandmother, and was handed down to all the women in my family, and we are all Southern. I am the first one to commit the sin of using a food processor (lol) but I find it works very well. I would put these biscuits up against anyone’s – they are perfect in every single way. I hope you all enjoy them.

Scalloped Potatoes

Here’s a great scalloped potato recipe that’s so easy and absolutely delicious. The leftovers are just as good, maybe even better, the next day. This is one of my favorite and most prepared recipes, from my 1971 Florence Junior Welfare League cookbook.

Mexican Cornbread

Another allrecipes find. She says “This has got to be the tastiest and the most moist cornbread I have ever made. It is the most requested thing I cook, so I am sharing it. Don’t let the ingredients fool you. It’s unbelievable
