Granny’s Most-Loved Appalachian Sunday Dinner Recipes | Chicken & Dumplings, Pasta Salad & More!

We’re actually starting with a decadent dessert that we saw Falon @MossFamilyKitchen make called an Italian Love Cake, then Granny is showing us her famous pasta salad recipe, and she’s sharing all her tricks to making a southern comfort staple, chicken and dumplings.
