You know the kind. They’ve been passed down over the years from generation-to-generation, and often shared among friends. These recipes are always special and are usually requested frequently and relished every time.

We know that MANY of you are excellent home cooks, and have an arsenal of family recipes among the home meals you prepare. We hereby beg you to share them with us, and with our vast family of readers.

Email your recipe to our Editor, Melanie Hyatt. We will publish it and credit you as the source. What makes these recipes even more special, is the addition of a short lead-in paragraph about the history of the recipe, or even why you enjoy it so much.

So surprise us with your family meal treasures and let’s share them with our special food community! We look forward to reading and preparing the recipes you send us!
