Ranch Snack Mix
This ranch snack mix is one of my favorite snack recipes that I love making for family get-togethers.
Cajun Boudin
This recipe for boudin (boo-dahn) is made with pork, rice, and seasonings. Boudin is a wonderfully scrumptious dish that's normally stuffed with pork and rice, but you can add shrimp, crawfish, or alligator meat if desired.
Neat Sloppy Joes
There's no green pepper in this Sloppy Joes recipe, so it's a hit with kids. We added this to the menu at a children's camp, and it has been a favorite for several years. The mixture is thick, so they are 'neat' rather than 'sloppy.' This freezes and reheats well.
