Salads

Southwestern Bean Salad is a recipe I came up with on a moment's notice. It was prompted by necessity. We received a last minute invitation to a cookout with some friends.

As a relocated Yankee living in the south, I sometimes miss being able to order Pittsburgh's most famous cole slaw. You can get this very special slaw only at Primanti Bros. restaurants. They build sandwiches that are piled high with fresh meats, french fries, and they top it all off with this style of coleslaw

Low in fat is not what normally comes to mind when you hear "Creamy," but this salad dressing delivers on the promise of low-fat but high in flavor.  "Creamy" most often conjures images of foods based in mayonnaise or heavy sour creams.  But this low-fat salad dressing has a secret ingredient.

Cheese Tortellini & Kale Salad has become a staple in my household. Do you remember playing Never Did I Ever as a child?  I can honestly...

Zesty Cucumber Basil Salad is a salad I came up with on the fly.  I found myself bombarded with cucumbers.   I don't waste food and needed to come up with something to do with five large cucumbers, quick!
