Quick Meatloaf & Potatoes by Salad FoodieStart 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.

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.

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… |

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… |

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.

Chewy Crunchy Double Chocolate Brownies by Salad FoodieThese brownies are my all-time favorite. They have two unusual ingredients: brown sugar and coconut, which add interesting taste variations and make them more moist than run-of-the-mill brownies. Be sure not to over-bake. They will be done in 20-25 minutes if using a bright aluminum pan; adjust time or temperature appropriately if… |
