I want to send out my love to The Food Network star that is Paula Deen. After seeing her on this Sunday's episode of The Next Food Network Star, I decided that I wanted her to be my new favorite foodie (over Rachael Ray?! NO!). I've decided all this without ever having tried one of her recipes. I was planning on making one of her pasta recipes with ground beef, tomato sauce and baked cheese, but that hasn't happened yet, due to things coming up and now Keenan's stomach issues . I picked this recipe because it seemed like it could possibly be her least fattening dish (she even suggested you use ground turkey) since it didn't contain her three favorite foods: butter, mayonnaise and sour cream y'all!
When you watch her shows, Paula's Party and Paula's Home Cooking, you just can't help but absolutely love her. She's funny and charming, and always has a great time while she cooks. Who can hate a southern lady who loves butter so much that she chooses to be a stick of it for Halloween? Plus, I just found out yesterday that she actually has her own recipe for a FAT DARRELL! Now that just warms the heart of a Jersey girl.
Since I'm at work (I know, I'm bad), I can't find the perfect YouTube video of Ms. Paula to post, but please, do yourself a favor and entertain yourselves by watching some yourself.
