	Cranberry Torte by Salad Foodie An elegant dessert recipe that makes a showy finale to the holiday meal. It’s a make-ahead and freeze recipe, which will simplify matters on the day you’ll use it. When it’s time for dessert, remove from freezer, add the glaze and serve. A stand mixer works best to whip the filling if available: be sure bowl and beaters are clean and…	3 votes 2 reviews 3 comments 13248 views
	Blue Cornmeal Cornbread by Salad Foodie Blue cornmeal imparts a blue-violet cast to the bread, a coarser consistency and a sweeter, nuttier taste than yellow or white cornmeal. It is 20% higher in protein and has a lower glycemic index, good news for those with elevated blood sugar. However it can be difficult to find! Arrowhead and Bob's Red Mill make it and some health…	2 votes 1 review 13081 views
	Half & Half Whole Wheat Bread (Machine or Hand-made) by Salad Foodie Well it's NEARLY half and half (whole wheat flour and white bread flour.) This makes a 2-pound loaf of bread though you can bake it in two 1-pound loaf pans and freeze one..or smaller pans as you wish. At high altitudes, decrease yeast a little (1/2 teaspoon) and increase water (1 to 2 tablespoons.)	2 votes 711 views
	Zucchini Chocolate Cake by Salad Foodie If there's a most-requested recipe for my year this would be it. Mini-chocolate chips and chopped pecans serve as the "frosting" for this cake. I like to make this a day or night ahead, because I like the mini-chips to harden but if you like them soft and a little gooey, serve the same day.	3 votes 2 reviews 6819 views
	Multi-Grain Bread (Bread Machine or Conventional) by Salad Foodie An all-around favorite in our family. Serve with homemade soup, use for grilled sandwiches and as toast. The variety of grains provides a nutty texture. But if you don’t have all the grains on hand, just sub whole wheat for the same amounts. Can be made conventional yeast method, but I always START with my Toshiba Bread Machine on…	2 votes 1 comment 17165 views
	Scalloped Potatoes ~ Microwave Quick! by Salad Foodie Scalloped potatoes cooked in 12 minutes? Compare that to the hour-and-a-half baking time most scalloped potato recipes require, and this recipe may become a year round “fav” for you since the microwave keeps your kitchen cool. Another appeal is the unusual and subtle flavor Swiss cheese gives to this dish. The recipe is based on one…	2 votes 1 comment 16679 views
	Strawberry and Rhubarb Tapioca Pudding by Salad Foodie A delightful tapioca pudding for a special occasion. So ruby-red pretty, and with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, you'll think you died and went to heaven. If fresh rhubarb is not available substitute frozen, and mash or cut up after simmering if necessary.	2 votes 1 comment 10052 views
	Italian Sausage Stuffed Peppers II by Salad Foodie I decided to create a recipe for stuffed peppers using surplus garden produce and Italian sausage on hand. But there's "nothing new under the sun" as Linda Hendricks' Cooking Tip of the Day blog had posted one a year ago. My version shortens the baking time considerably by steaming the peppers and pre-cooking the rice, and varies…	2 votes 14382 views
	Navy Bean Soup - A Knott’s Berry Farm Classic by Salad Foodie My Knott’s Berry Farm Cookbook is dated 1980 so I wondered just how its Navy Bean Soup recipe would stack up against today’s interpretations. Nearly 35 years later I have learned those vintage recipes can be hard to beat: plain and simple, hearty and satisfying. We loved this version, and that was just First Day judgment. Can hardly…	3 votes 1 review 1 comment 8277 views
	Senate Bean Soup by Salad Foodie U.S. Senate Bean Soup is served in the dining room of the United States Senate every day in a tradition that dates back to the early 20th century. The basic recipe is made of navy beans, ham hocks and onions, but variations abound. This version is typical, with the addition of potato, celery and garlic. Serve with a slice of corn…	2 votes 5494 views
