This salad is healthy, yummy, and super easy to pack to take to work. It’s more substantial than your typical green salad and good for lunch or a side dish. Recipe adapted from Yum and Yummer by Greta Podleski.
Ingredients:
4 cups peeled, cubed butternut squash (use sweet potatoes if you...
This recipe makes for either a nice side dish or as a dessert on it's own.
My Mother made this for as long as I could remember, but as she aged, she stopped.
Mom always just called it Cranberry Jell-O® Mold ...

This is the recipe for my husband’s family’s traditional Christmas potato salad. I was introduced to this when we first started dating (almost 20 years ago now!). There’s no source for this recipe - we just copied how his family made it.
Note that we never measure anything for this recipe -...
I reckon almost any ingredient can be used in a salad and I've used a fair few vegetables, cheeses, fruits, meats and fish to make salad in the past. Can you think of an ingredient which couldn't (or shouldn't) be used? I'm meaning a single ingredient not something already made from various...

I’ve often thought that fresh bay leaves were a rather underused herb. The way I’ve used them in the past is to add one or two leaves to a stew, soup or marinade or maybe to decorate the top of a pâté. Here I thought I’d bring their savoury yet floral taste to the fore. Luckily I have an...
An easy and pretty potato salad. Smetana is a type of sour cream from Eastern/central Europe and tends to be milder in taste than other sour cream. Feel free to substitute a sour cream of your choice. Serve warm, at room temperature or cold. This potato salad will keep in the fridge for up to 4...
Now to exactly copy this recipe, a type of mayonaise is needed that is not available outside of the Netherlands. It's a store brand yoghurt mayonaise my mother always used. Therefore I have replaced that mayo with a mixture of yoghurt and mayonaise, it won't come out exactly the same but good...
