I grew up on hand grown garden food. Mom canned and we all worked the garden together to get it to harvest time. We all gladly ate it all winter long until next season came around, the do it again. I still eat it today. I had my wife's canned stewed tomatoes, along with fried potatoes and onions tonight. It never gets old when you ate it growing up. I didn't know there was anything that tasted better than what mom would put on the table back then.

A lot of mornings it was cheese toast or cinnamon/sugar toast. Salmon patties w/biscuits and gravy occasionally on Sundays . (canned salmon of course)
I
ive Polk Salas and scrambled eggs.. pickled polk salad stalck
One summer we ate so many turnips, collard greens and Polk salad my mom had to tie a couple of COAL OIL SOAKED RAGS around my ankles to keep the cut works from getting me
We ate at my folks last week, had salmon patties, biscuits and gravy, mashed potatoes, and green beans from the garden. Hard to beat.
We usually ate hotdogs on loafbread growing up.
You name the casserole. That's what we had. Mom made sure to put a vegetable, a protein, and a carb in the meal at all times. I'm still doing that for my fam, just making more than I thought I would. Budget everything now ha.
Growing up, anything that I didn't want eat for dinner would be there for breakfast. Still didn't want to eat it? Guess what was for lunch lol
