Fried Okra and Green Tomato Combo are two Southern favorites coming together most deliciously. The vegetables are cut into equal sizes, coated with a self-rising coating, fried to perfection and sprinkled with a heavy dose of salt and pepper with a little pinch of cayenne pepper. This is a post to celebrate the bounty of two Southern favorites, Fried Okra and Fried Green Tomatoes. Some summers I don't fry okra or green tomatoes but once or twice, but this summer I couldn't get enough of them.

Roasted Ratatouille Vegetables Recipe
Roasted Ratatouille Vegetables, roasted summer vegetables, eggplant, bell pepper, zucchini, and onion with a whole garlic into a delightful side dish. The recipe is healthy and comforting at the same time--pure deliciousness! I grew up with traditional cooking methods, and they are hard to change, but the older I get, the more I make changes to easier methods. As is with this Ratatouille recipe. While traditional Ratatouille is made by sauteeing vegetables separately before combining them, I decided to roast the vegetables.
Grandmother's Old Fashioned Meatloaf {Cooked In A Cast Iron Skillet}
Old Fashioned Meatloaf Recipe My Mother-in-law's recipe. She taught me early on to cook my meatloaf in a cast iron skillet, which has never changed, and she also taught me not to forget to save the tripping for delicious tomato gravy. She would form her meatloaf in a bun and cook it with enough water about a third way up in the skillet. All those delicious juices make a wonderful gravy. She believed that a good meatloaf recipe is one that has a good ratio of fat in the hamburger.
