Blackened Fish
This blackened fish is cooked in a hot cast iron pan until charred and packed with flavor. This recipe calls for trout, but catfish or red snapper would be equally good. Be sure to have a well-ventilated kitchen!

This is the meatloaf I taught myself how to make when I tried to duplicate my Daddy's meatloaf! It's a perennial family favorite! It's wonderful sliced cold the next day and used in a warm, toasted sandwich with a little butter.
