Jean's Potato SaladMy friend Jean makes one of the best potato salad I have tasted. She shared her recipe with me. Here is her easy, quick and tasty recipe. Great for a potluck.

Ham, Peas & Pasta SaladA nice choice for a summer cookout or picnic, this pasta salad can be made up to a day ahead for convenience. My pasta choice for this is ditalini, a small pasta often used in soups (this can be hard to locate but Barilla sells a one pound box.) Or substitute your own small pasta FAV such as elbows or shells. |

The raw broccoli salad was different for a number of reasons. Firstly,… |

Carrot, Pineapple and Blueberry Salad ~ Easy & Healthy!“Healthy IS as healthy DOES”, as the saying goes. This salad is one of the healthiest I prepare because there’s no added fat, salt or sweetener of any kind. The canned pineapple tidbit juice acts as the sole "dressing" - period!

World Class Tomato Salad For A World Cup Final MatchAll Saturday before the World Cup was to be played I had Tapas on my mind.

So did that make me go on a quest for tapas? No. It did make me go looking for a recipe for that days'… |

Cranberry Walnut Cabbage SlawThis recipe was a top winner in Better Homes & Gardens August 1999 monthly recipe contest and I have made it ever since. It's fits well with a Thanksgiving, Christmas, holiday theme with the dried cranberries and walnuts, and the red and green color combos, but I make it year-round. I especially like the snappy dressing. |
