North Carolina is one of my favorite places to be. We lived there for a few years when Thomas was stationed at Camp Lejeune, it’s home to Wilmington/Carolina Beach which is one of my cities and we love to take day trips across the state line to NC to go shopping.

Like Virginia, North Carolina has both fantastic beaches and beautiful mountains plus tons of history! My favorite city, Wilmington, was founded around 1740! Did you know that the Mitchell-Anderson House at 102 Orange St in Wilmington was built in 1738 and is the oldest surviving building there!?

But on the other side of North Carolina you have beautiful places as well like Asheville, NC which is home to the Baltimore Estate!

So let’s see, North Carolina Food… think BBQ, Krispy Kreme, Cheerwine, Fresh Sea Food, Shrimp, Peaches, Biscuits and Gravy and more southern favorites as we dive into…..

10 of the Best North Carolina Recipes

1. DOUGHNUT BREAD PUDDING

Kick your traditional bread pudding up a notch with the addition of glazed doughnuts! Doughnut Bread Pudding replaces french bread with glazed doughnuts for an over-the-top treat. Best of all, the doughnuts do not have to be fresh. Stale doughnuts work just as well as those right out of the Krispy Kreme box.
