Give your answer to this question below!
My mother’s macaroni and cheese is my favorite!
It used to be fried pork chops, mac and cheese and a vegetable.
Now its spicy crunchy salmon and tuna rolls
Roast Chicken with Roast potatoes YUM
Spaghetti and meat balls…my grandmother’s recipe.
I really like fried chicken with biscuits, gravy, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes and fried okra.
black eye peas and cornbread
Spaghetti with lots of sausage & pepperoni with plenty of garlic & spices.
im from the midwest..
my favorite family meal is..
homemade chili, with homemade cut potato fries, with deer meat hanmburgers smothered with cheese… and texas toast..
we take the texas toast, put the deer patty on, sprinke the potato fries, pour chili over the fries, then smother with cheese.. and eat..
this is typically called a horseshoe..
My family is from the Santa Maria area of California- the typical meal there is: Tri-tip beef roast cooked over an open oak-fueled flame and then sliced into thin strips. California pink beans (similar to pintos) served with fresh Mexican salsa on top, sourdough buttered garlic bread, and a little plate full of olives, pickles, carrots and celery. Cold beer to wash it all down. MMM-I’m getting hungry just thinking about it….
Garfield’s favorite: LASAGNA!!!
wheres the cornbread…..and oh yeah you hit it with the fried green tomatoes…..YUMMMMMMMMMY!
Nutty oven-fried chicken, hashbrown casserole, and homemade yeast rolls with honey butter. I’m a country girl like you!
My mom makes great mash potatoes, Roasted Chicken and Macaroni Cheese!
Poached eggs and crackers!
I used to get up every weekend and eat this with my dad when I was a little girl!
Love em!
5 crackers per egg, and butter on each cracker, put the poatched eggs on top, and then smash it all up. Little salt…..YUM!!!
That and hot cocoa and toast. Dipping the toast into the cocoa. Oh yummy!!
LOL….now I’m hungry!
gumpkis are my fav! polish dish my grandmother always made for us. its basically a meat mixture rolled up in cabbage with tomato sauce (homemade) good stuff!
Chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, fried okra, cornbread, and buttermilk bisquits. Yummy!
mine is kinda like a goulash
its ground hamburger, peas, mushrooms, onions, green peppers, carrots, potatoes, and gravy mixed up together.
at times its dished up over a bisket or rice
fresh raw salmon, raw mackeral, raw tuna, raw octopus with white carrot strips underneath
chicken and dumplings,or green beans made with ham hocks served with cornbread. I can’t pick just one.
Being from the south myself, the description of your meal brings back many happy memories.
Personally I like my beans cooked with fatback (salt pork), onion, black pepper, and a couple of pickled jalapenos to give them some kick served with cornbread dripping with butter and honey and a side of greens. Those yankees don’t know what they’re missing!
However, my all time favorite is chicken and dumplings (the way my mom used to make).
YUMMY!!! That sounds so goooood!. My favorite family meal is fried chicken with pinto beans (those are so good!) with fried okra and cracklin’ cornbread. And of course you have to have the sweet tea to finish it off with…and pound cake for dessert. I’m Southern, too…now I really want to go home to see my parents and have a nice meal, but, alas, college calls.
Cut – Belly Eggplants (Karniyarik)
Ingredients Measure Amount
Eggplants 6 medium 1 kg.
Oil (for frying) ¼ cup 50 gr.
Onion 3 large 250 gr.
Minced Meat ½ cup 250 gr.
Tomatoes 4 small 400 gr.
Green Peppers 3 medium 50 gr.
Garlic 5 cloves 15 gr.
Parsley 2/3 bunch 40 gr.
Salt 2 dessert spoon 12 gr.
Black Pepper ½ dessert spoon 1 gr.
Hot water 1 cup 200 gr.
Servings: 6
Preparation :
Wash the vegetables, cut off the stalks of the eggplants and peel them in ribbon fashion. Warm the oil in a non-stick pan, put in the eggplants and cover. Turn the eggplants occasionally and cook for about 15 minutes to soften them. Arrange them on an oven tray and cut their bellies taking care not to split the ends and make hollows with the back of a spoon. Peel the onions, wash and chop finely. Place the onions and the minced meat into the pan where you have softened the egg plants and stir, cover and let them to simmer on low heat for about 8 – 10 minutes, until the meat juices are reduced, stirring occasionally. Set aside one tomato and two peppers. Chop the rest into very small pieces and add to the minced meat mixture and cook for another 5 minutes. Peel the garlic and separate the parsley leaves. Finely chop the garlic and the parsley and add to the hot mix. Add salt and pepper and stir. Fill the hollows made in the eggplants with this mixture. Cut the spared tomato into six circular slices and cut the green peppers length-wise into three slices. Place these on the eggplants. Add the water slowly from the edges of the dish. Bake it covered for 20 minutes at medium heat, and remove the lid and bake for another 10 – 15 minutes.
This is a dish cooked quite often particularly during the summer months in all regions. It is served at either lunch or dinner as the main dish. Rice is the appropriate second dish. When an oven is not available it can be cooked on the range, with the lid on.

what i would give to do it one more time!
I used to make a dish that the kids would ask for for supper. I would cube a 2# round steak, mix 2 tablespoons of prepared mustard with 1 tablespoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon cumin and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper. toss the meat with this mixture until all pieces were coated then refrigerate overnight. In the morning I would add 2 cans of stewed tomatoes with chilies to the crock pot along with the meat and cook on low all day. When I got home from work, I would drain 2 cans of chili or pinto beans then add them to the crock pot. Once the beans were hot (about a half hour) I would serve this over steamed rice. It really was quite good.
