Soup and Salad
Crispy Chinese Chicken Salad
Always a hit at picnics, Crispy Chinese Chicken Salad with an easy homemade hoisin and ginger flavored vinaigrette.
Spring Mix Salad with Pomegranate Honey Dijon Balsamic Vinaigrette
I know, 95% of the recipes here are desserts. A salad just seems a little out-of-place, but you know I wouldn’t share just any salad here. This is the salad that I want to have for lunch everyday.

Sauerkraut Salad

What was once crunchy, juicy and fresh ends up suspended in a fluid like a science experiment; lifeless, salty and lacking…
Cream Of Broccoli Soup
Broccoli has always been one of my favorite veggies, but it was not until I was a little older when I really began to appreciate broccoli. See, when I was younger I would happily eat raw broccoli as a snack, but once it was cooked it started to lose it’s appeal for me, see overcooked…
