Angel Food Cake

I love angel food cake. It can be eaten alone or with fruits and berries and be great either way. It's the one box cake mix I try to have on hand, because it's so easy. One and a quarter cup of water, mix and bake, can't get much easier than that! They can be made homemade, but for something really easy and only needs water, boxed is the way to go. Bake for 40 minutes, cool an hour and a half and enjoy. AND angel food cake has ZERO fat grams!!

Big Spring Mill Seasoned Flour

This is the BEST seasoned flour ever! I got introduced to it years ago and considered myself lucky every time someone brought me a bag. It could only be found around the mountains of NC, until recently when Eagle Island in Wilmington started carrying it. But I think they only carry the small bags and they're kinda pricey. The big bags still seems to only exist in the mountains. 

I googled it and found that you can order it directly from the mill and it's rather cheap. Along with the seasoned flour they also carry a regular flour, a biscuit flour and I think a corn meal. I haven't tried the others, because I've never found them on any shelves. But if they're half as good as the seasoned flour, they're worth a try. 

But back to the seasoned flour. It is great for fried foods (chicken, pork, seafood, etc.). It can be used along with flour to make a great gravy. It'll make the best cubed steak and gravy you've ever put in your mouth! And it's perfectly seasoned, so nothing needs to be added.
