I'm not necessarily looking for recipes unless someone wants to share.
Mom had this ugly green ceramic deep casserole pot that made the best mac n cheese you can imagine. I'm positive it was made with Velveeta, because that was the only 'cheese' mom would ever buy.
Fridays were always meatless and it seemed like every other Friday we'd have this horrid, dry, baked halibut that was in a butter sauce and topped with paprika.
And what kid doesn't like Frog-eye Salad? To me, that was the best part of Easter dinner.
One dish I particularly liked was chicken pieces placed in a 9 X 13 and smothered with cream of celery and cream of mushroom, then baked.
Grandma & Grandpa had a green apple tree that shaded the sandbox in the back yard, and that tree had branches that grew together like rungs on a ladder for us to climb. Anyhow, Grandma made this dark brown apple butter that was soooo good!
Dad was given a couple tons of flagstone once and he decided to build a BBQ pit like he had seen in Popular Mechanics. I only ever remember it being used once, and those burgers came out charred to a crisp.
My other Grandma always made us tuna salad sandwiches that always hit the spot (I think she added just a touch of sugar) and she always had Ruffles potato chips to go with them.
And then there were the processed foods. I remember when these were new on the market: Spaghetti-O's, Cap'n Crunch, all the Chef Boyardi stuff, Sugar Pops, and if they weren't new at the time, the Saturday morning commercials sure made them seem new.
