Blue Plate Special

 

US Flag, forever may it wave!The first question asked, was, what would Olde Time Cooking be without a Blue Plate Special?   The term "Blue Plate Special" is believed to have originated when diners served an inexpensive meal on white plates that had a blue band around them.  They were comfort foods that made you feel good.

This month I present a special lunch for the month that's typically known for its' picnics.  So here you are folks, a meal just like Betty used to serve at the corner diner.  Enjoy!
