	Savory Meatloaf with Zucchini by Salad Foodie In planning a birthday dinner for a mutual friend, a fellow-foodie and I devised this juicy meatloaf with prominent herb flavors. We started with 3 different mostly lean ground meats we had on hand (a good quality turkey, deer meat and pork sausage - but you can use any combination you like.) We like the layers of flavor 3 different…	3 votes 15922 views
	Skinny Party Turkey Meatloaf by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox I call this party meatloaf because it’s fancy enough to serve for company but you really don’t have to wait for company to make this yummy meatloaf. Any night of the week will be great! It’s quite similar to my Skinny Meatloaf recipe except I’m using very lean ground turkey breast instead of beef and topping with a beautiful, gourmet…	2 votes 1 comment 7883 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
	Whole Wheat Sandwich Thins (with bread machine dough option) by Salad Foodie Whole wheat, bran and honey - a perfect threesome! Regular hamburger buns and even bread slices at times have too much bread volume for me, so I often turn to commercial sandwich thins. When I tried this recipe from breadworld.com it enabled me to have…	3 votes 1 review 2 comments 11563 views
	Peach Rum Sauce by Salad Foodie Lip-smacking delicious! A spoonful of this delicately flavored luscious sauce turns ordinary desserts into memorable treats. Warm and serve over ice cream, or use for French toast or your morning breakfast bread. The first time I made this recipe (found on freshpreserving.com) I was skeptically cautious, canning it in small jars to…	2 votes 1 review 1 comment 5427 views

	Quick Meatloaf & Potatoes by Salad Foodie Start to finish this can be on the table in 30 minutes, which represents 15 minutes of prep and 15 minutes cook time in the microwave. This meal-in-one recipe comes from the heyday of microwave cooking in the 80's and 90's, and is always a family pleaser. Of course it can be baked in a 350 degree F. conventional oven instead, for an…	1 vote 5532 views

	Granny Smith's Apple Pandowdy by Amos Miller Makes your eyes bug out & your stomach say "Howdy!" Fusion can be confusin', so let's get back to an ol' timey American dessert, not found on menus in fancy restaurants. This is just good country food, like I got when I'd have dinner at Nellie Keeling's home up Horse Mill Hollow, near Glasgow, W. Va. Pandowdy is a highly…	2 votes 2 reviews 4 comments 8428 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
	Fabulous 3 Cherry Pie by Amos Miller Most folks don't have the luxury of owning a personal cherry orchard, so I modified this recipe using ingredients available at most stores. You'll save the picking and pitting time and end up with a fabulous pie that will thrill even those who say they do not care for cherry pie (I've had it happen). As a native-born…	4 votes 1 review 7 comments 7112 views
	Zucchini Chocolate Cake - Solar Baked! with conventional oven option by Salad Foodie One of my absolute favorites and most requested cake recipes is this yummy chocolate cake.
