This dish is truly a taste of Louisiana Cajun Country. My mama made countless batches of biscuits and tomato gravy in her lifetime. I’m sure she learned to make this from her mother. This is the dish that puts my feet back under my mama’s table. Serve with love over hot buttermilk biscuits along with bacon or sausage for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner.

In this recipe, asparagus, tomatoes, green onion and cilantro are tossed with a light vinegar and oil dressing. This is a fresh summer salad inspired by Mediterranean and Asian flavors.

An old recipe that’s especially good for family get-togethers. It’s good, it’s fun, and clean-up is easy. It’s best done outside around a picnic table. When shrimp and crabs are done, cover picnic table with four to five layers of newspaper. Remove everything from pot, drain, and spread in center of table. Gather everyone around and enjoy the feast. When everyone has had their fill, gather up the leftovers (if there is any), put all the scraps in the center of the table, roll up the newspaper around them, and put them in the trash. Go wash the one pot and the cleanup is done. Have fun and enjoy.
