Ham, Peas & Pasta Salad

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.

Lotta Cheese Cheese Burger

Lotta Cheese Cheese Burger by Patti Fisher

We got a complaint from some friends that when they go out for burgers the meat is paper thin and the cheese, if you can find any, is tasteless. We had no choice but to say “See you tomorrow, come hungry!” Everyone was happily stuffed and knew they were eating a cheese burger. They may be back again tomorrow. Not only was there 2…

Oat Pecan Praline Cookies

Oat Pecan Praline Cookies by Salad Foodie

Chewy, slightly soft texture with a hint of caramel pecan, these attractive cookies make a nice snack for company with coffee, tea or milk. Sometimes we bakers just have to break out of the oatmeal-raisin cookie rut, and these certainly do!

Beef Fajita Best Marinade

Beef Fajita Best Marinade by Amos Miller

This is fast, simple and super delicious! You should have a very hot (very) cast iron griddle or pan to do this right. I preheat the griddle and simultaneously heat a cast iron serving dish so it goes to table with that distinctive 'sizzle'. Be sure to cut the meat, after it has rested, across the grain and as thin as you can. This…

Skinny Sliders with Caramelized Onions, Yum!

Skinny Sliders with Caramelized Onions, Yum! by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

Minimizing is the new super-sizing and these little sliders are terrific. No need to heat up the barbecue because these mini burgers are best made on a George Foreman grill, Panini maker or in a pan. The deep, subtle sweetness of the caramelized onions really add a wonderful flavor to these little gems. To make them skinny, I’m using…

Zucchini, Yellow Squash & Radish Salad

Zucchini, Yellow Squash & Radish Salad by Salad Foodie

So colorful, light and refreshing, this goes over well at summer feeds, and helps use up your garden harvest. Make this in advance to allow a thorough chilling, about 2 hours. It's best served the day made. Sub any veggies you want for variations, or change to a main dish salad over pasta. Leftovers can top salad greens for yet…
