Meals on the cheap

Last edited Sun Apr 26, 2026, 02:27 PM - Edit history (1)

I still fix and eat most of these. Fried mush is really good with tomatoes on top. And dandelion greens with bacon drippings and wine vinegar and oil are tremendous. Hell I use dandelion greens on sandwichs when I don't have lettuce. And toast and tomato is one of mine and my daughter's favorite summer meal.
