Shrimp Potato SaladCool Shrimp Salad is made even more refreshing with the snap of fresh lime juice and cilantro. This would be a substantial luncheon dish, doubly welcome because it can be made ahead. I'm not a fan of cocktail shrimp, frozen or canned. I strongly suggest using fresh cooked or the pre-cooked frozen shrimp found in the seafood… |

Murphy's Cole SlawThis recipe sounds so strange I was afraid to taste it. Boy am I glad I did! This is absolutely the best coleslaw I've ever tasted. I'm assuming Murphy's is a restaurant but I'm not sure. I got the recipe from someone else. The dressing is cooked and it's made without mayonnaise. For anyone with a gluten allergy, the ramen noodles… |

Cous Cous SaladI love Cous-Cous and this salad is a nice change from cous- cous as a side dish. Its great cold or room temp. I used to make it with a white wine vinaigrette, but it doesn't need it. So now I just offer some raspberry vinaigrette on the side for those who want it but most people eat it plain. I will include the vinaigrette recipe… |

This dressing keeps well for several weeks refrigerated in a mason jar, a vintage bottle from the thrift store, or recycled dressing container (see photos). Yield is a little over 2 cups and will dress a… |

Sweet basil tomato saladI adapted this recipe from a tomato salad my mom's friend, Michi, made us years ago. She marinates the tomatoes in the dressing. We use this as salad dressing. You need to use a pretty sturdy lettuce such as Romaine--it's a substantial dressing. It's got wonderful flavor either way you use it. |
