Most of us have in our minds on what we will be serving for the holiday, and so I thought it might be appreciated by some if I was to share a few of my family favorites. Last week I shared a variation of a more popular recipe: sweet potato casserole. This week, I\u2019m sharing something that many have likely never tried.<br \/><br \/>Passed down from generation to generation, cheese pie is more than a family tradition. Growing up in the South, we had cheese pie for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Sunday gatherings, family reunions\u2026honestly, it was served any old time. It\u2019s one of those dishes you hope there\u2019s plenty left over because hot or cold, cheese pie is downright delicious. Not to be confused with the dessert made with cream cheese and graham crackers, cheese pie consists of saltine (Zesta is our choice) crackers, cheddar cheese (the sharper the better), eggs and milk<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-126f5ab4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"126f5ab4\"
