Wonderful Stew
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was an awesome recipe and SOOOO easy. I used heavy whipping cream also which gave it a really rich flavor, and added... some "Slap yo Momma" spice to give it a little kick!!! Really good!!Read more

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This recipe brought back so many memories. My mother just passed away and I remember when she would make this stew on a cold... day and she use to add the little crackers. I just miss her so much but I just know she is smiley down from heaven Read more

SOUTHERN SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL FOR THE WINTER NIGHTS !!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This wonderfully easy recipe brought back sweet memories of my childhood. Many Saturday nights we would have this great stew.... You can easily leave out the onions if you prefer...still wonderful. TIP: Mother always served sweet pickles on the side...gerkins, mixed sweets or bread&butter...yummy! Also, some of the family would add a big squirt of ketchup. My oldest sister would eat so much & get so full that she would have to lay down on the floor under the table to recuperate...we always had a good laugh at her antics. Like I said the recipe takes me back to my childhood 63yrs ago in SC. Thanks Paula for spreading the joy!Read more

Simple is best
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This is soooo easy to make - once again proving that just a few good ingredients can make wonderful dishes. I couldn't get... fresh oysters, so used two 8oz cans. Three cans would have been even better. Fresh would be best of all. Next time I see fresh oysters I will be sure to get them. My husband really liked this soup even though he sounded a little skeptical before he tried it. With a little diced Yukon gold potatoes this would make an easy Sunday night supper.Read more
