Cook’s Note

Double the recipe to make two sandwiches, which would increase the avocado to one full avocado versus a half. You can also use one full avocado on one sandwich if you are like me and love avocados!

You can substitute sourdough bread for the Italian bread if desired.

American cheese can be used in place of Cheddar cheese.

Apple Slices

This is enough for a cookie sheet or jellyroll pan. Use ten cups sliced, peeled apples. Drizzle with a confectioners' glaze if you like.

Cathead Biscuits

This is the old-time recipe from our grandmamas. There is no real measurement in this for the shortening. Wonderful and tasty heavy biscuit from the old times. Great with homemade sausage gravy. Always always always use White Lily® flour for the fluffiest biscuits. I usually don't always use all of the buttermilk. I seem to usually have just under a 1/4 cup leftover.

Lazy Wonton Soup

For this lazy wonton soup, you skip making filled wontons, and drop pork meatballs and quartered wonton wrappers right into the gingery, flavorful broth. This recipe is SO delicious!

Italian Wedding Cookies

These Italian wedding cookies are sometimes called Mexican wedding cookies or butterballs and can be shaped into crescents. They're also delicious made with pecans or hazelnuts instead of almonds. Great for gifting! This recipe was given to me by a friend who grew up in central Europe; they are the best wedding cookies I've ever had.
