Holiday Food Can Be Nutritious and Taste Good!

Happy Holiday season!

I love learning what other families holiday traditions are and especially their recipes they make for their holiday meals with.

Today I am featuring another bloggers Holiday recipes. I posted on Instagram and asked for people to submit their recipes to be featured and Ms Anna Dabill sent me a message and asked if she could submit her recipes and links. I was very excited and can’t wait to try some of these myself.

As this begins to cool just a tad arrange your first layer of vanilla wafers—then a layer of banana slices, now a layer of pudding,–repeat until all is layered finishing with a layer of vanilla wafers

Holiday Recipes~Nannies Dressing 

Dressing!!! Mmmmm. This is something that can make or break a Thanksgiving for me. Lol. I love my moms dressing and until this dressing below have never liked anyone else’s.

 The first time I came to Mommajos for a Holiday and there was dressing I almost passed it up. I looked at it and thought wow that looks like my moms I better try it. Mmmmmm mmmm am I glad I did.  

So here it is Mommajos -Nannies Recipe!  Now she can pass it down to her smiles!!  

To me my Lil Nannie was the best cook in the world. She made all kinds of yummy homemade recipes but the taste of her dressing lives on in my mind. I’ve played around with this recipe and have finally perfected it to match my memory. I hope y’all enjoy! BlessingS ~Carol
Oooo  I usually double this recipe cause it tastes even better the next day?
