	Luncheon Pasta Salad by Salad Foodie A refreshing light pasta salad for a main dish luncheon or summer potluck. I like small or medium shell pasta, but elbow, ditalini or bow tie pastas are good choices too.	1 vote 455 views
	Ham, Peas & Pasta Salad by Salad Foodie A 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.	1 vote 3108 views
	Fideo (Cut) Spaghetti and Shrimp Salad by Salad Foodie Fideo is a thin spaghetti cut into 3/4-inch pieces used primarily for soups, or if the spaghetti is broken in half or less it is used for certain Mexican dishes. Of course you can break regular thin spaghetti in small pieces yourself for this salad, but using the prepared pasta is so much simpler and ideal. This unique pasta salad…	1 vote 2868 views
	Green Beans, New Potatoes and Bacon by Salad Foodie A delicious side to serve with meat, or as a main luncheon dish with salad. Honestly I could almost eat a whole plateful of this! It is so simple but so tasty. First run-through I followed the recipe exactly from Homestyle Amish Kitchen Cookbook by Harvest House Publishers 2010. Having made it several times since I made only minor…	3 votes 4 comments 12506 views
	Chocolate Tapioca Pudding by Salad Foodie Take old-fashioned tapioca pudding to a grand level for a special Valentine dessert - add chocolate! Be patient as you cook the pudding, it can take 20 to 30 minutes of stirring to melt the chocolate and reach proper consistency without scorching. The pudding will thicken as it cools.	1 vote 3132 views
	Make-over Spaghetti & Shrimp Salad by Salad Foodie Originally mayo was the dressing for this salad recipe from a friend long ago, but I decided to give it a make-over. Adding a few new veggies and seasonings, and subbing an oil-based dressing, made it lighter and brighter. The recipe makes enough for a crowd or potluck, so cut down by one third or two thirds if needed.	3 votes 2 reviews 1 comment 5831 views
	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
	Creamy Broccoli, Chicken and Pasta by Salad Foodie Here’s a variation of an earlier recipe using zucchini and ham I posted (see Useful Links below the recipe), only this time I tried a different meat and veggie, and tweaked the flavors a bit.

	Southwestern Shell Pasta Salad by Salad Foodie Chop, chop, chop and get your frustrations out making this pasta salad with south-of-the-border appeal.

Make this ahead of time and chill ~ if you can wait and can keep everyone out too!	4 votes 3 reviews 2 comments 10029 views

	Classic Potato Salad & An Unscientific Potato Challenge by Salad Foodie For the heck of it on a dull afternoon we put the “scientific method” to the taste test to determine the best potatoes for potato salad. There were only 3 varieties on hand to test: russet, red, and Yukon Gold. One-half pound of each were cooked just till tender, drained, cooled and cubed. The recipe selected was Classic Potato…	3 votes 2 reviews 2 comments 4214 views

	Butternut Squash and Apple Soup (with Pressure Cooker Option) by Salad Foodie Inspired by a recipe from New Paradigm Cooking (Sandbach, Terranova and Ware), I chose to forego the cookbook’s recommended 30 minutes simmering time in a stockpot, for a pressure cooker rendition which cut the cooking time to well under 10 minutes…	3 votes 1 review 7719 views
