When our family gathers together, food seems to always be the center of attention. It doesn't matter if it a picnic or Christmas dinner, there is always an abundance of our favorite things. Many people have asked for our recipes and it only seemed right to have them in print. You'll enjoy our favorite Main Dishes like Chili, Beef Stew, Barbecue, Baked Oatmeal and Chicken Parmigiana. There are plenty of appetizers to go around, too. We've included vegetables, side dishes, breads and muffins. There are also sections on microwave and crockpot recipes. Of course, no meal would be complete without the desserts, cakes, pies and cookies. Many of our recipes have been handed down from generation to generation. We love them and are sure you will, too
