We tasted this slaw at Kroger and loved it. It's even better with the addition of onion. We made it the first time for Emily & Matt's 2015 Summer Kick-Off Cookout.
Ingredients
  • 1 pkg. cole slaw mix (16 oz.)
  • ½ tsp. seasoned salt
  • ½ cup Honey Mustard dressing
  • 3 Tbsp. Sriracha pepper sauce (or to taste)
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup green onion tops or chives, sliced
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Combine all ingredients, refrigerate, and enjoy.
Notes
I want to try this recipe, substituting broccoli slaw mix, Trader Joes's cruciferous mix, or perhaps mixing several kinds of cruciferous vegetables.

*a note from Emily* It keeps getting better with age (like pickles!), and won't spoil since there's no mayo.

  • DRESSING: 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • DRESSING: greek seasoning
  • DRESSING: coarse ground black pepper
  • DRESSING: a pinch of salt

  1. Combine all dressing ingredients in a mason jar and shake until blended. Pour dressing over slaw ingredients in a large tupperware bowl. Shake the dickens out of the bowl until all slaw is thoroughly coated.

This is my own twist on my step-other Sharon's Pea Salad. I still make it every Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Ingredients
  • 2 cans small/early peas (drained)
  • 1 can diced pimentos (drained)
  • 1 medium red onion (chopped)
  • 1 bag of cubed colby jack cheese
  • pepperoncini (or banana pepper) rings
  • Miracle Whip
  • coarse ground black pepper
Instructions
  1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Add as many pepperoncini peppers as you like - it will make the mix hotter, so use your judgement. Scoop in Miracle Whip and gently fold in until the mix is moistened throughout. Allow to chill for a few hours before serving.
Notes
This recipe tastes best if made 2-3 days before you serve it. If you don't like the tang of miracle whip, substitute half with mayo. You can also add a small splash of the pepper juice to kick it up a notch. If you like hard boiled eggs, they are a great addition.

Crock pot lasagna is the best! It browns up beautifully and tastes delicious.
Ingredients
  • 1 jar of your favorite marinara
  • 1 can (drained) diced tomatoes
  • 1 small jar of tomato sauce
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • chopped mushrooms
  • 1 package pepperoni minis
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • Penzey's Pasta Sprinkle (Italian Seasoning)
  • 1 8 ounce tub of ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ½ cup finely shredded parmesan cheese
  • black pepper
  • Parsley
  • 1 box oven ready lasagna noodles
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
  1. Saute onion until translucent and add minced garlic and mushrooms. In a big bowl mix sauteed vegetables, marinara, tomatoes and sauce, spices and pepperonis. In a separate bowl, combine ricotta, beaten eggs, parmesan, black pepper and parsley.
  2. Spray your crock pot with non stick spray. Add a small amount of sauce to the bottom of the crock pot. Layer in noodles, followed by sauce and cheese layers. Repeat layers and top with shredded mozzarella.
  3. Cook on low for 4 - 5 hours.
Notes
Switch up the ingredients to match your favorite pizza toppings - peppers, sausage, the sky's the limit! If you need to run the crockpot all day, add an extra small can of sauce to the marinara mix so it doesn't get too dry.

This spaghetti squash has been a hit with everyone I've served it to. It's a great alternative to serving it plain.
Ingredients
  • 1 spaghetti squash
  • butter
  • olive oil (Dove Garlic Olive Oil preferred)
  • Ruth Ann's spice blend (salt, pepper, garlic powder, lemon peel)
  • fresh parsley
  • feta cheese
  • Parmesan
Instructions
  1. Wash and cut spaghetti squash lengthwise. Scoop out and discard seeds and poke a few holes through the rind with a fork. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place squash, cut side down, in a pan or casserole dish. Add about a half inch of water to the bottom of the pan. Bake for 30 - 40 minutes, until soft. Once baked, carefully fluff out the squash strands with a fork into a large bowl. Add butter (a small amount, but it would depend on the size of the squash - it's more for flavor - the olive oil will do the rest), and a splash of olive oil so that all the squash is lightly coated. Chop a handful of fresh parsley and add to squash. Toss with spice blend, feta and Parmesan.
