For those of you that know me, I grew up with my Grandmother. She grew up in the depression. She fed us the same things she grew up on, cheese sandwiches, soup, grits. When we asked for a snack, she offered a “nice piece of toast”. I never grew up feeling deprived though, the food was simple and tasty and it still is today. I’ve gathered together some recipes from the web based on the food my grandma used to make us every day. I hope you enjoy these simple, economical meals as much as I did growing up!
