★★★★★ 5/5 A delicious, traditional Acadian meal Disclaimer: Every Mémère (grandmother) has a varying version of this recipe.

★★★★★ 5/5 A delicious dessert that is rustic and simple Certain foods in this world are of incredible comfort, like apple pie and banana bread. My Mémère liked a good loaf of banana bread from time to time, and she always liked that extra crunch, so she would add walnuts. When it’s fresh out of […]
