Ten plus recipes made with pumpkin, canned, or fresh. I have included cakes, cinnamon rolls, muffins, soups, and a recipe for the most delicious Honey Pumpkin Cornbread. Are you a fan of pumpkin recipes? I can't wait for Pumpkin season. It seems to come earlier and earlier every year. Even though some of the pumpkin products may be marketing ploys some people seem to welcome it back every year. Part of the hoopla is the warmth the fall season brings, mugs of apple cider and pumpkin bread, playing in the leaves, and wrapping up in cozy blankets.

A Southern July 4th Tradition! Mother's Cherry Cheesecake Pie {Granny's Recipe}
This classic cherry cheesecake pie celebrates the red, white, and blue! CHERRY CREAM CHEESE PIE Cherry Cream Cheese Pie is perfect for a picnic or a 4th of July party, and the smooth and creamy cheesecake pie filling in graham crust will surely be a crowd-pleaser. During my growing-up years, I remember my mother making this cherry cheesecake pie in the summer around July 4th, depending on what day it fell on closest to the weekend.

July is when the corn is ready to pick, and on July 4th, we were shucking corn and putting it in the freezer. Right now, memories of how we spent our July 4th are flooding! Oh, how I loved those days! This pie introduced in the 1950's when two products, Philadelphia Cream Cheese and Eagle Brand Milk, came together, to cr...
Crusty Breaded Pork Chops
Crusty Breaded Pork Chops have a wonderful home-cooked flavor like the ones my Mom used to make. The breading makes them crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. OLD FASHIONED BREAD PORK CHOPS Old-fashioned breaded pork chops are among the best Sunday dinners, right next to fried chicken. I prefer to cook the ones with the bone in, as it gives you a handle when eating with your fingers. My husband has been so hungry for crusty-breaded pork chops that I took a recipe that I generally make liver and onions from and used it this time for the pork chops.

Peking Pork Chops
Peking Pork Chops tenderized pork medallions, coated in a Chinese marinade and then deep fried. But that is not the end, just before serving them dip them in a thick tangy and sweet hoisin sauce mixture. One of the first restaurants my husband likes to go to after the holidays is our local Chinese restaurant. Peking Pork Chops are the favorite, and now I make them at home.
