Hoppen Mashed Potatoes

September 13, 2019 By Shawn Leave a Comment

There are many variations of this recipe but the end result is the same every time.  Rich and Creamy mashed potatoes that don’t require gravy. Of course you can add gravy if you so desire!   My earliest memory of having anything close to this was when my Mom made twice baked potatoes.  They were served in the shell of a halved potato and they quickly became my favorite side dish.  Years later we served them at their restaurant the Dominie Huis and later on the famous Noel mashed potatoes emerged as another version of this delectable potato dish. This version is my own and is ...

Country Style Corn Pudding

August 6, 2019 By abby Leave a Comment

This recipe is a staple in the Hoppen Home. It is that one recipe that everyone likes and expects to see at every gathering. The word pudding in the title is misleading because there isn’t a pudding texture to this dish at all, nor is it comparable to a cornbread. It is uniquely it’s own. It has been tweaked by many over the years but Grandma Sher Bear has made it her own Family Recipe with the addition of chip dip for the perfect blend of spice added to it From Grandparents to Grandkids it is by far the most popular dish ever made in the Hoppen Home. 1 Stick of Butter (melted)1 Can Whole ...
