This one may be a little controversial, but I promise that I mean no disrespect in any way, shape, or form. I have found several articles that say it should be appropriate to eat ‘Soul Food’ on MLK, Jr. Day, and others that say Fried Chicken was his favorite food… whatever the case may be, I don’t think that he would want us to argue about something like food when there are so many other important issues we could be fighting for!

We should definitely use this day to talk about history and the things that he stood for because our history is so IMPORTANT!

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Menu

Dinner

Fried Chicken or BBQ Ribs

Macaroni & Cheese, Collard Greens, Black Eyed Peas

Baked Potatoes, or Sweet Potato casserole

Cornbread or Hoe Cakes

Dessert

Pecan Pie or Peach Cobbler w/Vanilla Ice Cream
