Grandma is known for many legendary recipes. Whether her towering coconut cake, her perfect Easter ham, or her famous chicken and dumplings, she’s no novice in the kitchen. She’s an expert cook and baker, but sometimes it’s just too hot (or busy) to turn on the oven or the stovetop. That’s right—even Southern grandmothers can appreciate a cooking shortcut from time to time.

25 Of Grandma's Best-Ever No-Cook Recipes

Full disclosure: I have no idea where this recipe came from. I might’ve thrown it together spontaneously using ingredients that were on sale at Kroger, but it’s entirely possible I was inspired by an Instagram influencer or something I pinned on Pinterest. More than likely, it was a combination of the two. What I know for a fact, however, is that it is my most-made dinner recipe of all time. I’ve made it at least once a week since I was a junior in college—and I’m almost 30.

I was working the soups and sauces station at a popular restaurant in the late '80s when the chef handed me a recipe to make as the special of the day. The chef, who was also the owner, had lived in France and taught me to make several authentic French dishes. This one, called a pan bagnat, opened my eyes to a whole different way to sandwich.

Ridley's Wreckage

When I was in grade school, one of my favorite things was Friday lunches. Not only did they serve the best sicilian type pizza, but Fridays were brownie day. I'm not talking any kind of brownies, I'm talking the most delicious, indulgent and fudgy brownies. These were the type of brownies that almost looked like they weren't baked to completion. Which was why we all loved them so much!

The best rule of thumb is to factor about 1/2 lb. raw brisket per person, which will yield a rough average of about 1/4 lb. of cooked brisket per person. If brisket is the star of the show and few side dishes accompany it, you might consider bumping that to 3/4 lb. uncooked brisket per person, but it's more likely that your brisket will be accompanied by side dishes—after all, brisket is often a main fixture of a larger, multi-dish affair whether it's a Passover meal or a barbecue potluck.

That’s it. I’m done gatekeeping. If you haven’t tried the key lime pie from Publix, now is the time. Even my devout baker of a mother, who for most of my childhood swore by the decree “homemade, best made,” is a convert. A Tennessean through and through, she always prided herself on fixing desserts from scratch. She’d diligently follow the instructions in my grandmother's waterlogged, dog-eared church cookbook that survived moves from Knoxville to Tullahoma and Memphis, then back to Knoxville, and so on.
