Green Beans, New Potatoes and Bacon

Green Beans, New Potatoes and Bacon by Salad Foodie

A delicious side to serve with meat, or as a main luncheon dish with salad. Honestly I could almost eat a whole plateful of this! It is so simple but so tasty. First run-through I followed the recipe exactly from Homestyle Amish Kitchen Cookbook by Harvest House Publishers 2010. Having made it several times since I made only minor…

Ham & Cabbage Hash

Ham & Cabbage Hash by Salad Foodie

This is a fast dinner-in-a-skillet recipe, and a good way to use up leftover ham or roast beef. Lots of vegetables make the meat go further and keep calories, fat, sodium and carbs to a reasonable level. A healthy and homey stand-by recipe for breakfast and/or casual dinners.

Plum Sherry Tart

Plum Sherry Tart by Farrell May Podgorsek

The sherry and lemon zest give this plum tart a unique flavor. Be sure to use ripe, flavorful plums. You can use frozen plums but thaw them or heat gently in a skillet before placing them on the crust. I prefer plum tarts that are not too sweet. Add extra sugar to the filling if you prefer a sweeter filling

Avocado-Tomatillo Sauce (for Taquitos)

Avocado-Tomatillo Sauce (for Taquitos) by Andra Kiser

40+ years ago, when my father was in Viet Nam, we lived in his hometown for a year in southern California. There was a drive-in called the Jolly Kone that served taquitos with this runny, hot (heat, not spice) green sauce made with avocados. I've thought about that sauce ever since. I found a recipe a while back (can't remember…

Chipotle Chickpea Dip

Chipotle Chickpea Dip by K. Garner

This is based on the same-titled recipe on Fat Free Vegan.com. I used heaping tablespoons of chipotle peppers, white onion, and a mixture of fresh and bottled lime juice. This dip is FANtastic. The smokiness of the peppers fools your taste buds. The mouthfeel is there--that umami everyone's looking for--without cheese or meat. You…

Lemon Berry Pie with Meringue Top

Lemon Berry Pie with Meringue Top by Balicravings

Spring is here. The supermarkets are full of berries, although the self picking season is still far away. We do love picking fruits and vegetables and eating them fresh from the trees or bushes. Summer is the time that we are out in the fields, and return home directly to the kitchen….. But for now, frozen berries can give the…

Perfect Bread and Butter Pickles

Perfect Bread and Butter Pickles by Farrell May Podgorsek

Not too sweet and not too sour, these old-fashioned pickles are crisp and crunchy. " Better than Grandma's" is the comment I most often hear. They are great for snacking on and perfect on a hamburger or hot dog. Refrigerator pickles are quick to make and will last in the refrigerator for at least 3 weeks. I use a mandolin style slicer…

Cranberry-Walnut sour bread by Prachi

In Atlanta, at Costco, I tasted this bread and loved it. Its sour, sweet and nutty. and more importantly NO (butter-sugar-oil). Isn't it awesome?
