Everyone loves Peachy French Toast, and baking it while camping in a cast iron Dutch oven is even better. There are many varieties and ways to make Peachy French Toast and here is my way of making this yummy breakfast or brunch treat. Peachy French Toast is also a great way to feed the hordes of teens when sleep overs, and get together happen.

This is my grandmother’s Nonies, favorite Anise Bread, which makes fantastic sandwiches, especially cheese sandwiches.  It has an unexpected licorice flavor for a bread, a wonderful surprise if you are not expecting the distinctive flavor of anise. Nonies Anise Bread has been around in my family for generations, and I want to share it with you to pass on as well.

This is a very simple recipe for a very tasty Sweet Onion Flatbread. I love eating this Sweet Onion Flatbread with carnitas or Cuban roasted pork and peas & rice. This Sweet Onion Flatbread should be eaten as soon as you make it as it both more delicious as well as it doesn’t keep long. Sweet Onion Flatbread is also good with cheese and wine as an appetizer.

I love making dishes with food that I have dried and stored in my panty and stocks. One such is Hopping John. This particular recipe comes from the 1847 printing of "The Carolina Housewife or House and Home by a Lady of Charleston". I love the taste of homemade bacon, and recently worked with a friend of mine and we make some bacon over the spring and was time to eat some. Hopping John is most certainly a regional low country dish. It is a traditional to eat Hopping John, and collard greens for New Years to bring wealth. My version of Hopping John is simple with a little extra onion and garlic added. I even shelled my own green peas last year and time to let them go.
