This yummy casserole is similar to many casseroles that I have cooked before. It contains onions, celery, rice, canned creamed soups and meat. The main difference is that this casserole includes shrimp. I don’t cook a lot of shrimp, but I really should. Shrimp is a healthy low fat food and cooks super […]
Today I’m going back to my roots, and I am not referring to my natural hair color. I am talking about where I grew up. I was born and raised in Mississippi. Actually, I was born in Memphis, Tennessee but grew up just a stone’s throw away in northern Mississippi. I realize there are many […]
