Both SWEET AND SOUR, this cucumber salad is a favorite! We have it throughout the year, not just in the summer! It is low in calories, too. My husband Bill asks for this often. This recipe serves even more than 8 so it’s good for a party. Usually I cut the recipe in half for 2 or 4 people. It is a great way to…

Bill’s Smooth Chicken Salad
I know everyone has their own way to make chicken salad! For Bill’s Smooth Chicken Salad, I GRATE the chicken in a food processor while it is still WARM so the chicken ends up minced and soft. No chunks of chicken allowed in this one! Smooth is the texture of this chicken salad! This is the way he likes chicken salad and the processor was the…
Israeli Salad, Healthy, Low-Calorie, and Delicious!
ISRAELI SALAD is famous not only in Israel but in New York. You can find many versions of Israeli Salad in delis and restaurants here. It is just little cubes of diced vegetables ( your choice! ) with lemon juice and an olive oil/vinegar Italian dressing. No lettuce of any kind and no creamy dressing! It is soo good! So healthy too! And only 76…

Strawberry Spinach Salad Dressing
“The popular Strawberry Spinach Salad recipe that made the rounds a few years ago is delicious! It is fast becoming a classic. I am sure a lot of people have made it or tasted it already. If not, give it a try! It has an amazing sweet and sour dressing! I loved this salad when it first came out. Then I began to add…
Waldorf Salad
Waldorf Salad, that simple mixture of apples, raisins, walnuts, and celery, with a slightly sweet, sour cream dressing has been a favorite for generations! It originated at the famous Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York in 1893. Waldorf Salad shouldn’t be swimming in a lot of dressing, and this recipe doesn’t do that. I like the using different color apples and dark raisins for contrast. It is…
Cranberry Mousse Jello Mold Salad
Cranberry Mousse Jello Mold Salad has been a favorite in our family for many years especially at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I found it in a magazine years ago so proper credit for the recipe goes to Helen Clement of Hemet, California. I only chose to reduce her nutmeg amount from 1/2 to 1/4 teaspoon , which gives it just a tiny hint of nutmeg, you may…
Heirloom Ambrosia Salad
“This memorable old-fashioned, now heirloom ambrosia salad has made an appearance at every family BBQ for longer than I care to remember! It is made with sour cream and not Cool Whip or yogurt like some recipes I’ve seen. I love sour cream! I could eat a spoonful right from the container! It has just the right combination of fruit and it’s so easy to put together in just a few minutes. I…
Creamy Coleslaw
“This creamy and tasty coleslaw is better than KFC or any deli coleslaw! It took me years to get this good enough for Bill’s taste since he says he is a coleslaw connoisseur! This is the way he likes it, very finely chopped, creamy, and sweet and tangy at the same time. It is very easy to make and one hundred times better…
