Alright, I know, it’s a lot of words in that one, but the flavours are worth saying all of that. I have made this salad twice in the past week. Once for a family gathering, where it was entirely devoured with everyone giving it two thumbs up, and again to get a decent picture of [...]

Carrot Apple Salad
First off, HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I trust you all had a great holiday season, spending time with family & friends. We had our first snow storm of the winter on the 25th & 26th. Perfect timing, huh? Sheesh! So, some Christmas gatherings had to be rescheduled, but it all worked out. I also want [...]
Russian Salad
This recipe was submitted by my Mom. It is a fantastic twist to a regular jello salad. The flavours are really great, and the sour cream doesn’t make it sour, but rather, makes it very creamy. Delicious!
Catalina Dressing
We use quite a bit of Catalina salad dressing at our house. Mostly when we have taco salad. When I had that on the menu for the evening, and realized that I didn’t have any dressing at home, I looked into my cookbooks.

The combination of chicken with the celery, pepper, blueberries and lemon yogurt were [...]
Sweet Spinach Salad
It’s summer here. In summer it’s great to be able to throw together a salad, top it with some grilled meat & have that as your main course. They are great because they can be made ahead and transported to picnics or barbecues too. There is so much fresh fruit & vegetables available right now, [...]
