This dish always gives me a satisfying feeling every time I eat it. It has beef and tacos! Who wouldn’t like that? I learned about this recipe about 2 months ago when my sister visited me. She told me that she had found the food that has beef in it and that I would definitely love beef after eating it. Yes, I wasn’t always a fan of beef. So, no occasional beef steak for me and burgers too! But after eating this recipe of taco, everything changed. My sister was right. It became my favorite. I don’t know but it has a nice appeal to it. I know there are a lot of recipes that has beef in it, but for now, I will settle for this Pillsbury’s Crescent Roll Taco Bake!

Aside from Mexican dishes, I love Southern, too. Southern dishes are so diverse, few of my favorites are Savannah Red Rice, Jambalaya, Banana Pudding, Cheese Pie, and a lot more. There are too many classic Southern dishes, some we are not even familiar with, but there’s one dish that never leaves our hearts – the Southern Fried Cornbread. These cornbreads are crunchy on the outside and moist on the inside. Easy and quick to make and an absolute cult favorite!

I learned to make this from my mom, she said her mother taught her too. It’s a recipe that has been passed around for centuries. Although, many modifications were made from one family to the other, yet the history of this delicious Southern Fried Cornbread stays the same. One of many Southern dishes pride that’s loved by many. I will teach my kids how to make this so they can pass it around their kids and to the next generation to come. This Southern Fried Cornbread deserves a spot on every family’s menu.

The best food for a gloomy afternoon! I made this yesterday and I enjoyed every bite of it! You will only need 5 basic ingredients for this dish and 7 easy steps! Anyone can pull this off. I am not an expert cook myself but I try to be. Well, when it comes to cooking food, we are allowed to give our take to it. I mean, personally, it makes me proud when I cook something good. Take for instance this Sliced Baked Potatoes. Yesterday, it was hit! My kids loved it. Nothing beats that feeling when you know what you did was amazing. Okay, enough with the long introduction and build up to this dish. It’s time for you to try it your own. By the way, if you do not have an oven, you can use your microwave instead. Just poke small holes on the potatoes and cook it in the microwave for 6 minutes only to prevent the potatoes from being overcooked.  So, there you go. I hope this makes your day perfect. Serve it with a nice and cold lemon juice. Enjoy!
