My favorite Recipes

My favorite foods: Grandma’s (Harriets) peach cobbler, green beans (southern style) with bacon, cornbread dressing, pickled beets, we used to can them and fried potatoes.

Pickled Beets:

1. Wash the cans and this was my job. Sterilize them by pouring hot water over them 2. Wash beets cut tails off 3. Boil beets until they soft, approx 15 minutes, depends on size 4. Let them cool, take the skin off 5. cut up beets and put them in the can 6. vinegar and water. So good with beans and corn bread.
