Old-Fashioned Peanut Butter Crisscross Cookies by Salad FoodiePeanut butter cookie recipes abound, but none of them came close to rekindling memories of the favorite from my youth - until I came across this one in an Old Farmer's Almanac. The first batch I made convinced me the recipe was the one from my early baking years. Ah - answered prayers! |

Bacon Mac (Macaroni & Cheese with Bacon) by Salad FoodieIt's hard to improve on an American classic, but I think this recipe based on Cooking Light Magazine (9/09) does just that. I stayed fairly close to its version and am glad I did. We loved the smoky flavor bacon imparts to cheesy pasta, and the extra zing from hot sauce. You will need a broiler-safe baking dish or pan for this. I used… |

Savory Herb Meatloaf by myra byankaI keep Stove Top stuffings on hand to use in place of leftover breadcrumbs, so I decided to add some to a meatloaf recipe. It turned out very tasty. Will be liked by kids who don't like "things" like onions. |

Zucchini Meatballs in Cream Sauce - Microwave Quick! by Salad FoodieSeveral good reasons to save this recipe: to use up zucchini; to keep the kitchen cool by microwaving the main dish; and because the meatballs are loaded with veggies, are moist and creamy. This is one of my two all-time FAVS from the peak microwave cookbook era of the 80's and 90's. If you prefer, use homemade cream sauce in place of… |

Baked Rice Pudding by Salad FoodieWe enjoyed this version of rice pudding, brought to a family dinner by my sister-in-law. For my tastes it’s best the day it’s made, so when there’s a crowd or potluck event, consider this ultimate comfort food for dessert. |

Roasted Butternut Squash by B InnesTo roast butternut squash you can either roast cut in half, cut side down, in a pan with a little water for about 1-1½ hours and then scoop out of the skin or peel, seed, cube and roast for about 30 minutes on high heat. My version uses a light marinade to oil the cubed squash and add a little sweetness. I keep it simple, but feel… |
