This is a very pretty and colorful salad and it's great to take for a pot-luck gathering. Layered in a trifle bowls, all the colors are nicely presented!
From an unknown magazine clipping. Make the butter ahead of time if you like. I cut this recipe down easily and did not have fresh thyme so I used dry. Great dish!
Asian Broccoli Slaw This is very easy to make and quite satisfying to eat. Nice and crunchy. I am going to try adding cooked chicken breast next time I fix it. I think it will taste like Chinese Chicken...

Received this gem in an email! This will serve well at summer potlucks (with much coming from the garden!) as a side for lovely things off the grill - bluefish, shrimp, maybe even flounder!

Just something a little different from the clam-based stuffing(s). Basic recipe you can change to suit your personal tastes. I usually cook and stir the mushrooms in butter before stuffing, but that's...

My dad use to make this dish when I was growing up and I just loved it. Of course his was a little different from mine but just as good. He would refer to it as Rainbow Stew also. Every time I make it...
Rich egg noodles are combined with the best of the summer harvest in a dish that requires some chopping but very little cooking. Serve it with the simplest salad.

This is a delicious appetizer I just created last night based off of a Morel sauce recipe I found. We wanted an extra decadent button mushroom based dish, so here it is.
Basic Green pea soup with dried split peas and a ham or bacon knuckle for flavouring. You may put in a piece of bacon instead. This is from 'Practical Cookery'
This is a very simple yet tasty side dish. It is a Semi-cooked hot vegetable that gives a totally different taste and texture to cooked zucchini. I created this dish years ago because I did not care for...
