This tomato gravy is truly a taste of Louisiana Cajun Country. Mama made countless batches tomato gravy in her lifetime using her mother's recipe. Serve with love over hot buttermilk biscuits along with bacon or sausage.

Sweet, Hot Mustard Slaw
I enjoy a wide variety of coleslaws, but this recipe for sweet, hot mustard slaw may be my fave. The combo of hot and sweet has a proven track record for pleasing palates. Salting and massaging your cabbage first (aka "cassage") will help draw out water, sweetening the flavor, and yielding a flexible yet still crunchy texture, which I think is lacking in many other "chop and mix" recipes. Garnish with chives and chive blossoms.
