Just in time for Thanksgiving!
If you’re looking for down-home, delicious Southern Cooking, meet Tammy of Collard Valley Cooks in South Georgia!
Delightful. Unpretentious. And a fabulous Southern Cook. That’s Tammy (and Chris, her husband, who does the videoing)!
I don’t exactly remember when I ran across Tammy’s YouTube channel. It’s been a while. But every recipe I’ve tried of hers is absolutely delicious, and Southern through and through.
I’ve made many a Chicken Pot Pie through the years but hers is by far the best—and easiest—I’ve made. The homemade white gravy (don’t let that scare you—remember, I said it’s EASY) takes it over the top!
Kelsey and I made Tammy’s recipe this weekend and oh my gracious . . .
If your cast iron skillet’s feeling a little neglected and you or someone you love is craving something comforting and creamy, this Chicken Pot Pie is the answer! Grab the recipe (and watch the tutorial) for Tammy’s Collard Valley Cooks Chicken Pot Pie!
Check out Tammy’s videos on Youtube:
Tammy has a special holiday series too. It’s full of old-fashioned recipes your mother and grandmother used to make. Down-home cookin’ to the max. Some of the recipes are definite splurges which makes them perfect for the holidays.
So what’s on your Thanksgiving menu for next week?
Ours is definitely Southern . . .
So what are your Thanksgiving plans this year? Are you gathering with family and friends? Are you hosting or headed to someone’s house? Are you doing the bulk of the cooking or does everyone divide and conquer?
Also, if you’ve lost a loved one this year and this is your first Thanksgiving and Christmas without them, know that you’re not alone. The “first” holidays are always difficult. While the popular Christmas song may espouse “It’s the most wonderful time of the year!“—and we do have much to celebrate in Christ (all year long)—it’s also a difficult time of year. We dearly miss loved ones gone on before us, and those empty places at the table turn our hearts toward Home. So if this describes you, please know you’re not alone. And feel free to leave a comment so we can pray for you as a community as we head into the holidays!
Love from my corner of Nashville,
Tammy
