Updated: Unnecessary Liveblogging – Spoonbread is done
Update: Please see before and after pictures below. Spoonbread is not the most photo friendly food but it was delicious. It works well with baked beans because it’s fun to breakup and add into the sauce.It’s also covertly a desert since our version was on the sweet side. We made a few modifications from the […]
