Mamaw's Chicken and Rice Casserole
I grew up with this chicken and rice casserole recipe. My Grandmother got it from a lady from church at a potluck a long time ago! She passed it down to my mom and it's always been a family favorite. Quick and easy for school nights, and the leftovers are just as good! You can use less butter on top of course, my Momma and Mamaw always put the full stick on top (gotta love Southern ladies and their butter!)
Nippy Pork Salad
Delicious pork that can be served on sandwiches, crackers, or just on the side with another salad. Best if left in fridge at least 4 hours before serving. Great next day, too.
Tortellini Salad with Tomatoes and Peas
This tortellini pasta salad recipe with tomatoes and peas is one of my standard dishes for potlucks or parties. It's vegetarian and so good! Don't skimp on the dressing, as the tortellini soaks up a lot of it. I estimated the vinaigrette amounts, so you can simply taste for yourself.
