Featuring : Fried Green Tomatoes, Southern Barbecue, Banana Split Cake, and Many Other Great Recipes.
After the tremendous success of her novel, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, and the beloved movie that followed, author Fannie Flagg received thousands of requests from all over the world asking for recipes from the little cafe of her Alabama childhood that was the model for the cafe in her novel. Now, she joyfully shares those recipes, in what may well be the first cookbook ever written by a satisfied customer rather than a cook! Inside you'll find wonderful recipes for:
* Skinless Fried Chicken * Pork Chops with Apples and Sweet Potatoes * Baked Ham and Pineapple Rings * Baked Turkey with Traditional Cornbread Dressing * Black-eyed Peas * Fried Okra * Creamed Onions * Broccoli Casserole * Southern Cream Gravy * Fried Catfish * Scalloped Oysters * Down Home Crab Cakes * Beaten Biscuits * Corn Pones * Lemon Ice Box Pie * Kentucky Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie * And much more!
The recipes in Fannie Flagg's Original Whistle Stop Cafe Cookbook are all for delicious hearty happy food that comes with all sorts of things, from gravies to hot sauces (very often the secret's in the sauce). But most of all this food, and this book, comes with love.

OK, folks, I've never "read" a cookbook from cover to cover, but I did this one. Am glad I took time with this one. I even tried my hand at a few of the recipes. So glad I did. A wonderful gift for the new bride, someone's birthday, or to just add to your own collection of cookbooks. I liked this book so well, I will likely go out and purchase one for my own collection. If you like Fannie Flagg and you like good food, this is a must read.

Food I was raised on, food I learned to cook and fed my family with. Some new recipes I would like to try. Makes me think of home, my mom, and grandmothers. I am a girl raised in the South and proud of it. Don't read or get this book unless you want to feel hungry and immediately start cooking!
