My grandmother used to make this butterbean soup to fill up our hungry stomachs after school. She died this year, but in my mind I can still walk into her house, smell the soup on the stove and then watch her, standing at her old gas stove, ladling me a warm bowl of this delicious soup.

Grandmama's Homemade Coconut Cake is a from scratch cake with decadent (and no fail) 7 minute icing. This is a favorite of our family!
Grandmama's Failproof 7 Minute Frosting is a delicious, fluffy and light tasting icing reminiscent of marshmallow cream, only better.

EVERYONE Should have this recipe in their recipe files!
I hope you enjoy this recipe for my grandmother's homemade Sweet Potato Pie, often referred to as Sweet Potato Casserole.
I am so excited that this is apple week for Southern Plate. The weather has turned cooler here and brought with it thoughts of beef stew and apple dumplings. Of course, I love apples cooked any way, Apple Dapple cake, fried apples, apple pie and these apple dumplings. Tonight I made a big pot of […]
I grew up eating this usually for dinner instead of breakfast. After I moved across the country, this was the one thing I always asked for when going back home. Finally, my mom showed me how to make it for myself. Then I put the kick into it!
