GRANDMA'S RECIPE BOX

This website was designed to collect old country recipes that are passed down from generation to generation. Our mother had several recipes that need to get out of the "RECIPE BOX" and into the hands of people who cook. Mom never spent a lot of time in the kitchen, however we also never starved. Mom could whip up a good meal using nothing but the basics. Like her daughters we don't consider the kitchen our favorite place in the house. This site will take some time to collect the recipes but if you want to add to them please do so. Thanks

Thoughts About Cooking...

"Who said cooking needs to be expensive and time consuming"
"When I think of cooking I want it fast, easy and affordable"
