My husband loves Cracker Barrel as much as me. OK maybe he loves me a little bit more, maybe. )

This sounds interesting. I wonder if I can adapt the cheddar/broccoli casserole to fit the paleo diet my doctor stuck me with.

Dietary restrictions keep me from enjoying Cracker Barrel food, but my version of "Cherry Surprise" is probably my favorite old world food. I'm not sure where it came from, but in cherry season, it's a must-make. I love surprises,especially when it includes winning goodies.

Chicken Pot Pie-not the frozen kind. The Amish kind made in a pot with noodles.

Although I shouldn't have these things (diabetic) I love the Crackerbarrel Chocolate Cherry Cobbler, Crackerbarrel's creamy mashed potatoes and Crackerbarrel's hashbrowns. These taste so good I can't believe it. I want more than I should have. lol But then, I can usually curb myself but not so easily with these recipes.

I love all of the recipes from allfreecopycatrecipes, but when it comes to Cracker Barrel, it has to be their hashbrowns and homestyle chicken!

OMG. This is the greatest (and most necessary) compilation of recipes I've ever come across. I might be sobbing a bit internally. Anywho, my favorite old country style recipe is definitely biscuits with gravy. I just have yet to master it.

I love meatloaf and mashed potatoes, but the chocolate cake looks delicious as well!

My favorite by far is the chicken and dumplin's. The dumplin's are light and fluffy, the chicken is tender, and the gravy is awesome. Include those wonderful mashed potatoes(with a little more gravy) and green beans, and you've got yourself a meal that even your Mama would be proud of !

These all sound amazing. It's a great idea to have recipes for Cracker Barrel, because all their food is supposed to homestyle anyway.

I can't go wrong with a good old fashioned bowl of mashed potatoes. They are creamy and buttery and delicious!

I would have to agree with some of the other people who commented and say buttermilk biscuits - especially if they're light and flaky.

We had a family gathering at Christmas last year and on one of the afternoons we visited a Cracker Barrel in Illinois. I keep on a low carbohydrate diet and have maintained a good weight since 1989. I enjoyed the fact that you have a Low Carb section for people like me. I had the best meal ever. I wanted to say a big THANK YOU and have visited your restaurants often with my friends. No one believes that you can eat well being a carb counter. You just proved them all wrong. I will continue enjoying. Cheryl D.
