Rob & MJ's Garden

A few of our favorite original recipes and some traditional family dishes.  We like to try a lot of ethnic cuisine and many of our original recipes reflect many different influences.  Growing up in the South, our family recipes are often a mix of Southern cooking and various European influences.   This page is updated on a periodic basis as I get and/or create new recipes that I feel are worthy of sharing.
