Mom's Recipes
These are just some of my Mom's recipes. Someone from Britain asked in cooking if we could supply them with some traditionally American recipes. The one I really wanted to give, her meatloaf, got set aside so I'll need to go hunting but these should do for now.

Substitute the cavenders with any salt mix you like.
