The Best Food Blogs The Volunteer State Has To Offer
Caramelized
Cara Greenstein from Caramelized runs her blog out of Memphis and features local Memphis restaurants as well as her own recipes. The combination of restaurant reviews, recipe walk-throughs and hostessing tips makes her blog worth checking out. Her recipe for open-faced sandwiches looks especially tasty.

Lemons and Basil
Lemons and Basil is a Nashville-based blog run by Kaylee Pauley. Lemons and Basil is all about healthy and clean eating without subtracting from the flavor. Check out her recipe for sweet potato Pad Thai with Sriracha sauce.

Local Milk
Probably my favorite blog from the list, Local Milk is run out of Chattanooga and Nashville by Beth Kirby. Not only does she create delectable recipes, but she takes incredible photos documenting the cooking process. And while it might not be easy for a college student to make chocolate lavender cake with mascarpone earl grey buttercream or honeysuckle biscuits with sea salt peach butter, we can certainly drool over the pictures.

Local Forkful
Charles Hunter III, who runs Local Forkful, grew up in Tennessee and currently lives in Nashville, so it's safe to say he understands Tennessee's local flavors. His recipe for sweet potato pancakes with sweet potato butter sounds perfect for fall.

Chattavore
Chattavore is run by Mary Haymaker, a native Tennessean based in Chattanooga who prides herself on creating authentic Southern recipes. And I'd have to agree, just on the basis of what might be the most Southern recipe known to man: sweet tea and lemonade pie.
