Sausage Gravy {Granny's Recipe}
Sausage Gravy is a favorite breakfast food that my family has enjoyed for years. My Children and Grandchildren just gobble this stuff up. This creamy gravy poured over biscuits, even toast, makes for a hearty breakfast. Many of my childhood memories are linked to my Mother preparing food, and this breakfast item is no different. You may think that this Sausage Gravy and Old Fashioned Buttered Toast are difficult to make, but you couldn't be more wrong. This sausage gravy is made with ground sausage, flour, milk, and seasoning. The buttered toast is simply bread and butter. How easy is that? I know. You are asking, "What is old fashioned about buttered toast?" Back in the day when I was growing up, there was no such thing as spreadable butter or margarine. Margarine was the butter of choice. We mostly used margarine and even called it butter. If you used butter in a recipe, you would affectionately call it "real butter." Isn't that funny
Old School Cooking! Leftover Ham and Great Northern Beans {Granny's Recipe}
Leftover Ham and Great Northern Beans , cooked on the stovetop in a big soup pot like my Mother cooked her's. A c rockpot is a great option to cook them, but remember they take less time to cook than pinto beans. The upside--you get to enjoy all those juices quicker with a big slab of cornbread. Our Christmas ham this year was super delicious, and the first thing we always look forward to is cooking the ham bone in a pot of beans. In fact, it never gets frozen. Straight to the pot it went with some Great Northern Beans .
