Creamy Vanilla Ice Cream
This is the best vanilla ice cream you'll ever eat. This homemade ice cream recipe uses pudding and sweetened condensed milk which makes it so much creamier than plain vanilla ice cream. If you want to add fruit, put the sugar in the chopped fresh fruit ahead of time to sweeten it, and then add to the mixture! Please note: this recipe contains raw eggs. We recommend that pregnant women, young children, the elderly and the infirm do not consume raw eggs. Important: be sure to use only fresh eggs for this recipe.

Meat Pie, Southern Version
One of my family's favorite comfort foods is the lowly meat pie. Lowly? It's actually full of flavor and, if made right, looks delicious as well. This version has beef and pork, plus a flaky puff pastry crust.
