What was your favorite childhood meal?

Oh, you bet. I remember. In fact, we still eat it when we can, and she's 91 now!! Mom made the BEST chicken potpie - and I don't mean a pie with crust outside and juicy meat and vegetables inside. That would just be pie. Mom made old-fashioned, Pennsylvania Dutch style rolled chicken potpie. Chicken would be cooked in water with seasoning (salt, pepper, onion, celery, etc) and then removed from the broth. In the meantime, a dough would be made, very similar to pie dough, rolled out thin and cut into long strips which would be laid criss-cross on a plate to wait until the broth was just right. Then, the well-floured strips would be dropped gently into the boiling broth, covered with a lid and cooked for at least 45 minutes (heat reduced a bit) until thoroughly cooked and thick. This would be dipped out into a big bowl and served with the chicken on the side along with cranberry sauce and whatever else Mom decided we should have. Delicious. It's hard to find any more around here - now Potpie means a pie with a crust. There are only two places left that serve potpie as we knew it in our area. But, in the South, something very similar is served and is called Chicken and Dumplings - flat dumplings, not drop dumplings. Even though there were only three of us, she'd make so much!! Her potpie dough recipe calls for 7 CUPS of flour!!! You can bet that lasted us a week!! And the pot was so big, it didn't fit in the fridge, so in winter, we just sat it on the back step in between meals. I still love it as much now as I did growing up!! But, Mom doesn't make it anymore and I'm a lazier cook than she was. She is blind and really misses cooking. So, instead, we go out to one of the two restaurants that make it and enjoy!!

My favorite meal as a kid was a Scottish delight that I'm sure almost evryone that reads this will find to be absolutely vile. It called mince and tatties (or mince and potatoes for the non-Scottish among you). Mince is basically hamburger meat boiled in beef bullion. It is actualy way better than it sounds.

When I was a kid, I used to love my mom's tuna casserole and also her spaghetti (she made great sauce). When I was a bit older, I loved it when my parents would make homemade fish and chips... it was the only meal where my dad cooked because my mom was afraid of the boiling oil. Anyway, my dad spent the whole day peeling and cutting potatoes for the fries and he made his own special fish batter and everything was drained on torn open brown paper grocery bags. OMG it was heavenly :)
