    Boiled Peanuts

    Boiled Peanuts

    Boiled peanuts are a traditional snack in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, northern Florida and Mississippi. They are pronounced “bald peanuts” by diehard Southerners.   Sitting by the roadside on a summer day, Chatting with my messmates, passing time away, Lying in the shadow underneath the trees, Goodness how delicious, eating goober peas! Peas! Peas! Peas! Peas! Eating goober…

    Payday Bars

    Payday Bars are seriously just as delicious as the “real” thing. This is a delicious version of Payday bars that mimics the candy bar’s sweet and crunchy combination of peanuts, caramel and marshmallows.

    Kung Pao Chicken

    Kung Pao Chicken

    Spicy chicken with peanuts, similar to what is served in Chinese restaurants. It is easy to make, and you can be as sloppy with the measurements as you want. Substitute cashews for peanuts, or bamboo shoots for the water chestnuts. You can add red bell peppers and other veggies as you desire. You can’t go wrong!
