Roasted almonds with Quinoa, Flax and Sunflower seed by John Spottiswood

Mom’s Deviled Ham Spread / Sandwich Filling by Salad Foodie

No one will complain about the leftovers from the holiday ham when it shows up next day as a dip or spread for snacks, or as a sandwich filling. This is a throwback recipe from my childhood!

Fabulously Healthy, Edamame, Spinach and Garlic Hummus For Summer Entertaining by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox
