Well guys I'm back,
Already had alot of this stuff together, just had to find the time to sit down and type it all out. Since I'm probably one of the slowest typers in the world, I am going to post a few of my favorites with additional reciepes added every week.
Now down here in South Alabama, we are known for some of the finnest dishes throughout the world. People flock from all over just to sample the fine cuisine, and although we are particular to our fat back and collard greens,fried chicken, homemade cathead bisquits, corn bread and butterbeans with mashed potatoes smoothered in the best gravy that you have ever tasted, most if not all of the dishes are relatively healthy.(At least the ones that I've included) To really appreciate the quality of food there is to offer, you really would have to come on down and try it yourself. There's an open invitation to all the brothers here at AR if you ever decide to come on down South for a visit.
