A Special Note about the FAMILY recipes I share via Rhythm & Rubbish: 

Though I am very much a lover of food, I am by no means a “food blogger”.  The recipes I share should be read in the context as if I handed you the well-loved, stained with ingredients copy of the recipe I have gone off of for many years. I do not know the exact amount of servings, calories, nutritional values, all substitution possibilities, etc. However, I would definitely be up for answering any questions I can to help, but just puttin’ it out there that I share these in a laid back friend to friend manner with the hopes you will enjoy them as much as our family has.
