    My mom makes great ham pot pie. I just won't make it since I find making the noodles tedious.

    Hands down.. Meatloaf!!! Of course now that I live on my own any home cooked meal from mom and dad's house is becoming a favorite. :)

    Dinaguan-meat and/or offal (typically lungs, kidneys, intestines, ears, heart and snout) simmered in a rich, spicy dark gravy of pig blood, garlic, chili (most often siling mahaba), and vinegar

    Of course with white rice too.

    My Mom didn't have any great dishes. She struggled to feed 7 at poverty level. Several times a week we ate Potato Soup. Once or twice a week it was canned Salmon. Her meatloaf, which was served often, contained more saltines and Catsup than actual ground beef.

    I have to say, though, that I have fond memories of dessert. Mom would spread margarine on a piece of white bread and then sprinkle sugar on it.

    It may sound like I am complaining. I am not. I remember dinner as a family fondly. My Mom did what she could with what she had and supplemented that with a lot of love.

    I wish I could sit down to dinner with her now.
