	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
	Bacon Mac (Macaroni & Cheese with Bacon) by Salad Foodie It'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…	1 vote 1718 views
	Southwestern Mac & Cheese by Patti Fisher Southwestern Mac & Cheese, we have to laugh, of all the recipes we get asked for from gourmet to down home, what we get the most requests for is macaroni and cheese. Our date night was coming up so I asked Ken what he was in the mood for thinking he would say steak or ribs. Nope, he wanted a creamy mac & cheese with a little flavor…	1 vote 2065 views
	Cheesy Ham Divan by Patti Fisher We love ham for holiday dinners…and sometimes we make them just to use in casseroles and sandwiches. Being the Pacific Living Outdoor Oven has a smoke box we can add extra smoky goodness to our ham dishes and all the great recipes for the leftovers. Patti loves casseroles using leftovers because she can add all kinds of veggies and…	1 vote 2129 views
	Easy Sausage Pierogi Bake by Patti Fisher Ken wanted macaroni and cheese made meaty with sausage. Patti had an “aha” moment because frozen pierogies are something we always have on hand, plus Ken just cold smoked lots of our favorite kinds of cheese. To make it extra easy we used jars of Alfredo sauce and to make it extra tasty we used Swimmin’ in Smoke Booty Shake Seasoning.…	1 vote 3111 views
	Our Favorite Mac & Cheese by Patti Fisher It’s been rainy and cold here. Comfort food was a must. Ken wanted macaroni and cheese, but it had to be extra cheesy with a crunchy topping. Patti said no problem and added bacon and broccoli to make it tastier and a bit healthy. Our Green Mountain Grill/Smoker added extra flavor along with their Green Mountain “Sizzle Seasoning…	1 vote 1 comment 5189 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
	Irish Cheddar Mac 'n Cheese by Gwynn Galvin Growing up with a dad who was born and raised in Ireland and had the best Irish brogue, and a mom who was first generation Italian (maiden name Lamborghini, yes, very Italian!), made for an interesting family dynamics. My dad's one request was that there be a bowl of boiled potatoes on the table every evening for dinner. My mom…	1 vote 2290 views

	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. Choose your heat level by amount of peppers, hot sauce and chilies you add. This yields a generous bowl and serves 12-14. 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
	Chicken, Tomatoes & Rotini Salad by Salad Foodie Hearty pasta salad to help use up leftover roast chicken or turkey. I've a bumper crop of grape tomatoes which work well in this too. I try to go light on the seasonings, so follks can adjust as desired when served.	2 votes 1 review 1 comment 4976 views
