Italian Bean Patties by Polly

Great little change of pace from the usual fare. I love cooking like my grandma and mama did. Both were SO creative, coming up with dishes that were both delicious and economical, a feat many have let fall by the wayside today, with convenience foods the norm instead of the exception. It is quite a challenge to prepare a great meal…

Mexican Salad by Renee Bryant

This is a refreshing traditional Mexican salad with a dressing of olive oil, lime juice and honey. The nice bite can be toned down to taste by using less jalapeno pepper. My personal preference is to substitute grape tomatoes for the plum tomatoes.

Bean Soup, a Simple One by Dave McFarland

This is a crock pot soup, so you can just soak the beans over night, then add all the ingredients. Let the crock pot do the rest. I chose the faster method, here.
