Welcome to our Recipe Swap!

If anyone would like to join this blog as a contributor, just let me know and I will add you as an author. The only thing we ask is that you share your recipes with us! We may start monthly themes later on down the line, if more people show an interest, but at this point, please feel free to post any recipe you like, whenever you like.

~If you have a photo of the dish, please post it along with the recipe, since it is always nicer to see a picture. Please post it at the medium size so we can keep all the pictures the same size.

~And please tag the recipes into one of the categories listed. As you decide on which category to put them in, think of how you would search for it in a cookbook. As administrator, I may occasionally go through the recipes and categories and edit them for easier searching as things go along, so don't feel offended if I change some things around.


~If you try a recipe, feel free to comment on the recipe and let us know what you thought!


~Finally, please write a little something about yourself. I will post everyones profile here, so that we can get to know those we may not be familiar with.

Thank you to those who have already jumped in and added recipes. I am excited to see what everyone is cooking!

Hush Puppies

this is a great southern side dish that tastes great with fried chicken, fried green tomatoes, or jambalaya

2 qts. vegetable oil for frying
3 c. yellow cornmeal
2 t. baking powder
1 1/2 t. salt
1 1/2 c. milk
1/2 c. water
1 egg, beaten
1 small onion, minced

Heat vegetable oil to 365 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine corn meal, baking powder, salt, milk & water. Mix in egg and onion. shape the batter into small balls, approx. 1 T. each. Use a long handled spoon to gently slide the hush puppies into the hot oil. cook 8 or 10 at a time, until golden brown. (Make sure insides are fully cooked) Remove from the oil with slotted spoon & roll on paper towels to briefly drain. Serve hot, makes 2 dozen.
