Sweet and Savory Sausage Muffins

We had a great worship service and Sunday school lesson today! 
I made these muffins for our fellowship time. They received several compliments!

Sweet and Savory Sausage Muffins

These muffins have an interesting, complex taste. The brown sugar adds a bit of sweetness, the cayenne a touch of heat and the onion a nice savoriness.

1 pound pork sausage
1 bunch green onions
3 tablespoons butter
3 cups baking mix
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne
1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
1 cup buttermilk*
2 eggs, lightly beaten

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Coat muffin tins with cooking spray.
Brown and drain sausage. While sausage is cooking, sauté onions in butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine baking mix, brown sugar, dry mustard, cayenne, cheese, sausage and sautéed onions. Make a well in the center. Add eggs and milk. Stir gently.
Spoon into prepared  muffin cups and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

*Buttermilk Substitute
Place a tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice in a liquid measuring cup.
Add enough milk to bring the liquid up to the one-cup line
Allow to stand for five minute.

Georgia Cornbread Cake

I clipped this recipe several years ago from American Profile, which is a small magazine insert that come with our local newspaper, The Pontotoc Progress. It is yummy, yummy, yummy!  I love the story that accompanied the recipe and was delighted when a Google searched turned up the same article on the web! Larry took this to work, and he said it was a huge hit with everyone! Enjoy! Georgia Cornbread Cake Georgia Cornbread Cake   Recipe of Stella T.

Dough Burgers

  Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant!  When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s
