Re: What Was Your Favorite Meal As A Child?

On our birthdays, Mom fixed us our favorite foods for dinner.

 

It was the ‘60’s, and no joke, mine was “Don the Beachcombers” Polynesian  style macadamia-nut crusted fried sweet and sour chicken!!!!!?? And she made it for me every year!!!!

 

It was probably easier than my brothers favorite, sauerbraten with ginger snap gravy and potato pancakes, cause that had to marinate for 3 days!!!

It wasn't a meal, but when I had a weekend with my grandmother, we'd soak the large tapioca overnight and then I'd "help" her make tapioca pudding the next morning. One of my most favorite memories of grandmother. My mother used to make me "milk noodles" when I was sick with tonsilitis or a cold....noodles, milk and lots of butter. Total comfort food for a sick little girl!

Spaghetti that my grandma made. I never got tired of it. She also made homemade bread that was so good.

Re: What Was Your Favorite Meal As A Child?

Until my age was in 2 digits I grew up on a farm . I had a choice of wonderful fresh vegetables in the summer and my mother canned and froze them for wintertime prepared by a good cook --Mom . But were those my favorite ? noSmiley Happy my favorite was a treat from our local 'Dog N Suds' drive in. A Coney dog and frosty mug of root beer !

This was almost my 1st choice.  It was between this and my beef and noodles.  I think the beef roast won out because I had a roast in the pressure cooker and the smell was wafting through the house!  I love, love, love meatloaf.  Not eating as much red meat since my heart attacks..... but boy, when I do, I savor every bite of it!  It  has to have ketchup on top of it, too.

Ketchup on pot roast is still one of my guilty pleasures! LOL!
