Tennessee Cornbread Salad
This Tennessee Cornbread Salad is a favorite recipe of mine! I had heard of cornbread salad but never tried making it. When I discovered a recipe at Krusteaz called Tennessee Cornbread Salad, it looked really good, so I decided to try it out. You don’t have to use a cornbread mix in this recipe–you can use your…

Yummy Good Chili
Chili makes a wonderful meal in the cold weather seasons and this is a great recipe a friend shared with me. This chili is spicy, but not too spicy…just spicy enough to have a little kick! I switched it up just a little by adding some different seasonings and a few other ingredients. That’s one…
