I love going to a good farmer’s market to pick up fresh produce. Back in the day, a farmer’s market only sold products from some kind of farm, such as fruit, vegetables, cheese, eggs etc. Nowadays, a farmer’s market sells well beyond that with baked goods, crafts, home-based business products and other homemade products. I […]

Egg salad is already creamy in its traditional form, but when you add some ripe avocado, it becomes even creamier. Avocados are a wonderful addition to any diet especially on a Keto diet because they contain healthy good fats and at least 20 vitamins. The celery in this recipe provides a little crunch and texture […]

I have always loved shrimp. I will eat it in any form. I also think of new ways to enjoy it all the time. A shrimp salad is not a new idea, but the combination of the citrus juices in this marinade gives the shrimp a lovely flavor perfect for Springtime salads. The Louis Sauce […]

Think of Tuna Salad but with no tuna. Tuna is something you will never see on my website. Gasp! Oh, the travesty! Neither my husband nor I like it so tuna never appears in my house in any form. We do, however, like all other forms of seafood. This Seafood Salad uses some of the […]

Now look…It is no secret that I am not a fan of skewered foods, but if you like some things on a skewer, then you do you boo! Technically, taking these off the skewer turns it into a salad. They work well on a skewer; truly they do. Don’t skip this recipe because you will […]

My maternal grandmother made THE BEST coleslaw. Unfortunately, her dressing recipe is loaded with sugar. I changed her recipe slightly to eliminate the sugar while retaining the flavor. Of course, nothing is ever better than your grandma’s cooking, but I came pretty close with this one. Ingredients 1 bag coleslaw mix 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1 […]

This is the fastest salad in the West! It’s my go-to salad when I don’t feel like hunting down and chopping salad ingredients. The few ingredients can stand independently, but you can use this as a base for a salad with more ingredients. Even when I don’t feel like making a salad, I can throw […]

This healthy salad is easy to throw together with items that you probably have on hand. I especially love this salad paired with any kind of pizza. Ingredients Butter lettuce salad mix (Optional) Canned green beans, drained or canned cannellini beans, drained and rinsed Green or black olives, sliced or chopped Red onion, chopped or […]

Do you have a bumper crop of tomatoes in your garden? First of all, if you do, I am quite jealous! I wish I had some for this fresh, summer salad! I had to use what I could get at the store. Either way, this is a refreshing salad you could serve as a side […]
