Crisp Summer Salad
July 20, 2010 · Leave a Comment
Crisp Summer Salad We had corn on the cob the other night with our dinner and had a few ears left over. The next day I was looking through the fridge to figure out what to make for lunch and I noticed some cucumber and tomatoes that my neighbor had given me from their garden. I decided that since it was so hot I would come up with a summer salad to cool me down and still please my palate. I remembered the ideal summer salad in Gulf Coast Favorites–this salad is so easy and so refreshing… and you probably have all of the ingredients already on hand! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Crisp... [Read the full story]

Marinara Sauce My daughter-in-law, Sana, mentioned the other day that she was craving a red sauce so she pulled out my trim&TERRIFIC Diabetic Cooking cookbook and made the Marinara Sauce. She served it over angel hair pasta and said it was the best marinara sauce she had ever had! She keeps telling me that Diabetic Cooking is her favorite cookbook as it has mainstream ingredients – easy to use even in her New York apartment. This Marinara Sauce is so easy and delicious – nothing beats homemade marinara and it’s so versatile! Serve over pasta or add eggplant or ground meat. Marinara... [Read the full story]

Burger Cake My friend called the other day and said she was making a cake for her 6-year-old nephew’s birthday party. She was stumped on what kind of cake to make because she needed something fairly easy that wasn’t loaded in icing, and would WOW children and adults. I sent her my Burger Cake recipe because I knew it was the perfect cake for his party. She said she had a lot of fun making the cake and that it was the talk of the party! It was a conversation piece for the adults, and the kids thought it was so cool! If you have a party coming up definitely try the Burger Cake and be prepared... [Read the full story]
