Poll: Mom's cooking

What was your favorite meal your mom made for you?

What was your least favorite meal?

 

Favorite for me: Hands-down, fried chicken, her own mac and cheese and sliced garden veggies (bell peppers, tomatoes, etc.). I'm getting better at making her fried chicken. There is no recipe. I cannot replicate her mac and cheese.

Least favorite for me: Pork roast. I don't care for it at all. I don't care for pork roast at all, regardless of who makes it. However, I do like pork in other forms (ham, chops, ribs, sausage, bacon, etc.). I would douse it in Worcestershire sauce and choke it down. I also didn't like meatloaf when I was a kid so she would make me a little hamburger patty instead. Aw.

  • Faves: Enchiladas, chicken pot pie, chocolate pie, roast turkey, spaghetti

    Least favorite: Roast beef diablo. It's basically roast beef with a ketchup-y gravy on it. Barf. I actually don't care much for grilled pork chops, either. 

  • Favs: Cornbread dressing (especially if it has crawfish in it), gumbo, mac n cheese, potato salad, chex mix.

    Least: Anything with velveeta (she makes some pasta with it yuck!)

  • Favorite: a casserole called chicken surprise...it's delicious.  Or orange jello cake (pretty much an orange bundt cake flavored orange by orange jello packet)

    least: chicken croissant casserole.  I still gag just thinking about it. 

  • Favorite: Lasagna? I really don't know. I love you, mom, but we don't exactly have the same taste in food (I grew up in a mostly meat and 3 household and I'm more of a grazer.)

     Least Favorite: Dorito cassarole. Mix 1 pound browned ground beef, 1 bag shredded cheese, 1 jar green olives, and 1 jar salsa. Microwave until cheese melts. Top with sour cream and crumbled up Doritos. Ugh!

     

  • Favorite: Chicken enchiladas and her Thanksgiving/Christmas dinners--from the turkey to the dressing to the pie it's soooo good!  
    When we were still dating DH and I had dinner at my parent's house and mom made enchiladas.  The first time I made them for DH he told me mine were even better than my mom's...quite the compliment since they're my fave :)

    Least Favorite:  Crab salad--I think that's what it was called anyway.  It was pasta, crab meat, and I don't even know what else.  It was always sandwich night for me when she made that.
  • Favorite: Tortilla Soup (that is WW friendly); Drip Beef Sandwiches (which are not)... haha; homemade ice cream; vegetable beef stew; grilled hamburgers

    Least Favorite: Grilled chicken on the George Forman for "meat and two"... She is paranoid that she won't cook something adequately so she dries it out... bad.

  • Faves: Taco soup, baked spaghetti, teriyaki chicken, chocolate creme pie...I could go on. My mom's a really good cook.

    Not so fave: Macaroni salad. But that's only because I don't like mayonnaise. I'm not as big of a fan of her chicken pot pie as the rest of the family is - I don't think she adds enough spice, so I add a little of my own.

  • What was your favorite meal your mom made for you? Vegetable soup with different types of meat (pot roast, turkey, chicken) yum! She throws so much in a pot and lets in simmer for hours... sweet potato pie, banana pudding, collard greens... my mom is an AWESOME southern cook.What was your least favorite meal? Meat loaf, yuck! I still cant eat this, it is something about all of the ingredients in it that makes me want to barf.

  •   What was your favorite meal your mom made for you? Roast and fried chicken What was your least favorite meal? Everything else.  My mom was a terrible cook except for the above.
  • Favorite: Mashed potatoes, I don't know why they are so good but I seriously am thinking of calling her in a bit to make me some.  I also really like her spaghetti, chicken and noodles, chicken and dumplings, pork chops, and enchilada casserole

    Least faves: Pot roast, it had no flavor!  Meatloaf, I like a couple of recipes I have made but I hate hers...  Oatmeal where I always use breadcrumbs, yuck!

  • What was your favorite meal your mom made for you? Korean BBQ or meatloaf with mashed potatoes (sometimes I really miss meat!)

    What was your least favorite meal? Pot roast (I hated the mushy veggies and the chunks of beef) or chop suey over rice (from the can). Blech!

  • What was your favorite meal your mom made for you? Ummm...everything? I love my mom's cooking. I can't name just one but my top list inculdes chicken and dumplins, "gourmet" meatloaf, her depression cake (yummy chocolate goodness) and fried fish.

    What was your least favorite meal? The only thing I can remember not really enjoying is her hashbrown casserol that she makes. Everyone else loves it but for reason I just can't get into it.
