Notes about Recipes in this book

• Sweet potato hash

  • southerncooker on March 31, 2022

    This was delicious. I made a fourth of the recipe for just me. I used pre-cooked chicken bacon, so I used a little EVOO to sautee the veggies, and a little avocado oil to fry my egg. I'm trying to reduce my salt intake so I only used black pepper to season and instead of hot sauce a sprinkle of crushed red pepper. I had some tiny avocados so I sliced one to go with.

• Apple French toast

  • southerncooker on April 08, 2022

    Pretty good. I omitted the salt.

• Brussels sprouts hash

  • southerncooker on April 18, 2022

    Made one serving for me. This was good, but I liked the Sweet Potato version better on page 3.

• Mini Hasselback tots + horseradish dip

  • hbakke on June 05, 2022

    I used purple potatoes that were on the larger size so they took a bit longer to cook in the oven. I liked the crispy edges and soft interiors of the potatoes. I would make this again with yellow/white potatoes since the purple potatoes looked a bit like weird pine cones after roasting (haha).

• Buffalo chicken sweet potato bites

  • southerncooker on April 19, 2022

    I had to tweak this recipe since I'm watching sodium content. I made one serving. I used a teaspoon of hot sauce and added a little Dash Southwest Chipotle seasoning blend. I cut the mayonnaise to a tablespoon, and used Dukes, the (bottled) ranch to a drop on each sweet potato slice (about a teaspoon total), and omitted the salt in recipe. I used leftover turkey breast instead of chicken. This was delicious.

  • Jviney on January 08, 2023

    Delicious. Made with Primal Kitchen avocado Mayo and the sweet vinegar combo was so good. A repeat for sure.

• BBQ chicken meatballs

  • southerncooker on May 05, 2022

    These were delicious. I ate in lettuce wraps and son ate on a sub roll. I don't eat pork, so I had planned to use porkless pork rinds, but couldn't find any. I ended up using some crushed hummus pea crisps. I also couldn't find smoked mozzarella so I used regular and added a dash of liquid smoke.

• Spicy tuna-stuffed bell peppers

  • southerncooker on May 02, 2022

    I used Dukes mayonnaise and only half the amount called for, which was plenty. I only used a teaspoon hot sauce. My daughter and I loved this. We had a half pepper each.

• Green goddess wrap

  • southerncooker on May 17, 2022

    Made for daughter and my lunch. I used rainbow chard from my farm share. We enjoyed these.

• Harissa chicken salad

  • southerncooker on April 18, 2022

    I used leftover turkey I baked instead of chicken and celery instead of chickpeas. I didn't make the mayonnaise from book , but used Dukes. I made one serving for me.This was a little spicy but delicious.

• Salmon-avocado salad

  • southerncooker on May 17, 2022

    I made a half recipe for daughter and I. We had it over a spring greens mix. It was delicious.

• Mexican slaw

  • southerncooker on June 01, 2022

    I really enjoyed this one.

• Mustard-roasted chicken drums

  • southerncooker on April 11, 2022

    I used boneless thighs instead of legs. Also used half the amount of salt, unsalted butter, and dried instead of fresh thyme. This was delicious and two year old grandson ate a whole thigh.

• Chimichurri taco peppers

  • Jviney on January 04, 2023

    These are very good. I roasted the peppers before I stuffed them, but I’d make all components of this again. The meat had great flavor, loved the addition of mushrooms.

• Apple cider vinegar-braised collards with mushrooms + shallots

  • southerncooker on May 24, 2022

    Recipe said for softer greens cook 20 minutes. Hubby likes them very tender so I cooked 30 minutes. He said still too tough for him. I thought they were really good. We ate with cornbread and he ate with pintos as well. I used some vadalia onion instead of a shallot. Collards from my Tumbling Shoals Farm Share.

• Carrot, ginger + turmeric soup

  • southerncooker on May 20, 2022

    Carrot and Tumeric from farm share. I added the suggested fried egg to add some protein. I used heavy cream instead of full fat coconut milk and chicken broth for the broth option.

• 1-minute mayonnaise

  • hbakke on June 05, 2022

    I've never made mayonnaise before, but this was so easy. I didn't have olive oil, so used a different, what I thought was, neutral oil (grapeseed oil). The resulting mayo was not entirely neutral tasting and had a noticeable green tinge. I would make this again with a different oil.

• Cilantro guacamole

  • southerncooker on March 30, 2022

    I made a half recipe. It was delicious with blue corn chips.

• Dairy-free green goddess dressing

  • southerncooker on May 17, 2022

    I made this for the Green Goddess Wrap page 67. I used whole milk and Dukes mayonnaise. I made a fourth recipe. Delicious.

• Dairy-free strawberry lassi

  • southerncooker on June 16, 2022

    I made this with Greek yogurt instead of dairy free. I enjoyed the cardamom in this. Very satisfying and refreshing on a hot day.
