Mississippi

The Magnolia State is a Deep South state situated along the Gulf Coast between Louisiana and Alabama. When viewed on a map, Mississippi’s western border looks something like the metal edge of a spiral notebook, all squiggly lines the result of a meandering Mississippi River gently looping its way to the Gulf of Mexico. Some of the world’s most fertile soil is found in the Mississippi Delta, a rich alluvial plain between the Mississippi and Yazoo Rivers in northwest Mississippi. Historically, the delta has been a prime area for growing sugar, rice, cotton, and soybeans. Mississippi shares with Louisiana a history of Creole cooking and some French influence, particularly in the cooking of the affluent. But it is Mississippi’s flavorful, down-home cooking that takes the prize, including ribs and beans, cornbread, turnip greens, fried catfish and hushpuppies, and Mississippi mud pie.

Zucchini Brownies

Reviewed on Aug. 18, 2008 by Kelly W.
If you make this recipe correctly, it is wonderful. I would have called it a cake rather than a brownie, though, as it reminds me more of a Texas Sheet Cake. There are a few major things to remember when making this recipe. #1 - DO NOT SQUEEZE THE LIQUID FROM THE ZUCCHINI! #2 - The batter takes several minutes of stirring/folding before it comes together. People who gave it a poor review saying that the batter was like sand just didn't stir it long enough. If you follow the recipe, you will have a very moist and rich chocolate cake. I thought the icing was good, too.

Spaghetti Pie II

Reviewed on Aug. 18, 2008 by Nicole
This was delicious! I don't like cottage cheese so I used crumbled Feta instead. I also excluded the sugar and oregano because the diced tomato and paste that I bought had flavorings already. (Basil, Oregano, Garlic, Italian Seasonings.) This is the first recipe that turned out right the first time I cooked it. Super easy! I LOVE IT!

Fruit Dip II

Reviewed on Aug. 14, 2008 by wisweetp
This has been my go-to fruit dip for 20 years. Never met anyone who didn't like it...especially good with strawberries. I always add a good dose of vanilla, also.
