Welcome to Great Southern Recipes.
We’re Paula and Cindy and through the years our friends have asked for our recipes – especially those that belonged to our mothers and grandmothers. Here for your eating and drinking enjoyment are some of those recipes - some Cajun, some just plain Southern but all made with love!
We’ll post how-to videos for recipes where step by step pictures are helpful. The Holidays are coming so let’s get ready to celebrate with our friends and family with no stress and lots of good food and fun!
We’re sitting here right now with a glass of pinot noir for Paula and a glass of chardonnay for Cindy and a small plate of goat cheese, some almonds and a sliced cucumber dusted with kosher salt. In other words – we’re having a party! It’s just that easy…
The first absolutely delicious dish that we are going to fix is Alabama caviar aka pimiento cheese. It can be an elegant hors d’oeuvre or a casual meal of soup and grilled pimiento cheese sandwiches. Please just say no to the store bought cartons of pimiento cheese. It’s not the same and it’s so easy to make it yourself.
We like to serve this with strawberry preserves and Ritz crackers for a spectacular hors d’oeuvre. Your friends will be amazed at your culinary skills!
