Cast Iron Clam Chowder
We love clam chowder, especially in the cold winter months. I've modified a few different recipes to come up with this one. Whenever I buy nitrite-free bacon, I always save the grease in a glass jar in the refrigerator to use for recipes like these. Serve with sourdough bread!
Easiest Peanut Butter Granola Ever
I wanted to find a peanut butter granola recipe that works for me, and here it is! Eat it like cereal, on yogurt, or by the handful.
Depression Era Corn Chowder
This is the recipe my grandmother used when she was growing up during the great depression. 70 years later, it's still a delicious, satisfying form of comfort food. Serve immediately with saltine crackers. Tastes even better after sitting in the refrigerator over night. In my grandmother's day, they would have 'refrigerated' it on the back porch overnight!
