Description
My name is Evelyn Ross. My mother cooked forty years of suppers in one iron skillet that hung on a nail by the stove, and I never once saw her take a recipe card down off a shelf. There were no cards.
In this video I walk you through every one of them, the way my mama and hers made do.
In this video:
✓ Hamburger pie under a biscuit lid
✓ A skillet cottage pie with a mashed potato lid
✓ Melted cheese poured over toast, which she called rarebit
✓ Meatballs in milk gravy
✓ Okra and tomatoes cooked down over rice
✓ Shrimp and gravy over rice
None of this needs a fancy name or a full pantry. It only ever needed someone willing to make do.
Try one of these this week. Then tell me in the comments what your own mother or grandmother made when there was not much to work with, and how she stretched it. I read every one of them.
Waste nothing, and remember, the women who fed a house through hard years knew things we are only just starting to remember.
