This is the best cabbage soup I have ever tasted. I found this recipe in an old cookbook. I changed some of the ingredients as I love a thick soup, the chili sauce adds a lot of flavor to the soup.
This recipe is taken from "The Gasparilla Cookbook" and it combines the wonderful flavors of the greek salad served on top of a delicious potato salad. The finishing touches are peeled and cooked shrimp...
Having to live the "low sodium" lifestyle can be boring and flavorless until you discover zingy items like this barbecue sauce. I found this on a low sodium recipe site and I've made it even lower in sodium...
When I visit my best friend in CA, there is a restaurant we always have to go to and I love their salsa. She got the recipe for me so thought I would share with all.
Posted by request. Recipe from www.recipegoldmine.com. Prep time does not include peeling cloves. Supposedly you can buy a 1/2 gallon jar of peeled cloves from Costco/Sam's Club for $7.
I received strawberry guava and a recipe from a friend who was just not up to making her jelly this year (Recipe #460307). As I was processing I found my own way and made jam instead (I prefer a jam to...
This recipe was in an email today from America's Test Kitchen. Just in time.... "A blend of sweet, tart, bitter, and spicy, this cranberry relish adds spark to the Thanksgiving spread as well as all manner...
This is a nice salsa that is especially good with any seafood. It goes particularly well with fresh Hawaiian ahi. I usually use a jalapeno pepper instead of the habanero to cool it down a notch. From Bon...
Here it is, my Mother's sweet and sour cabbage recipe! Whenever served guests will ask for the recipe. Quite simple to make, and can easily be doubled for a dish to pass, etc...
This is a tangy and thick soup that makes a wonderful and elegant appetizer or first course. Created for RSC. Thank you to Mom2Rose for putting this in her best of 2009 cookbook!
BEST GREEN BEANS EVER!!! These beans are also known as Kentucky Wonders. They were the variety that my father always grew in our garden and are of the flat bean type. They have flavor galore! I have included...
easy and cheaper than buying it and definitely cheaper than buying a coffee from starbucks! From the joy of cooking Edit: I would like to point out that this recipe comes from The Joy of Cooking and is,...
This is great canned! It is very similar to the "real" stuff. I always have an abundance of apples and plums in season and it's a great way to use them up. The original recipe called for 4 1/2 cups of...
A very yummy, quick and easy and NOT low-cal recipe I got from the MyFoodDiary.com forums. Different from cornbread. This is soft and served out of the pan with a spoon. Too soft to cut into squares and...
Very much like the honey mustard dipping sauce served with Alice Springs Chicken at the Outback Steakhouse. Great as a dipping sauce for chicken fingers, too!
A Rich Intense Sauce filled with sweet red peppers, sweet onions, earthy mushrooms, savory herbs and of course creamy roasted garlic. Don't hesitate with the garlic use it all. A foundation for so many...
My family called this recipe fried corn, but it's really sort of a cross between creamed corn and fried, but to clear, it's not soupy creamy like canned creamed corn and has tons more flavor. It used to...
I got this from my Mom. She got it at her WW meeting. You can use any cake mix. Suggestions are chocolate, spice, or carrot mixes. I haven't tried it yet but I'm putting here on Zaar for safe keeping.
This is my father-in-law's mother's cake recipe from Oklahoma, and I'm posting it for safe keeping. Word (word in our family, that is) has it that no one made a mayonnaise cake like she did. She would...
There are a lot of cucumber salad recipes on Zaar, but I haven't found one exactly like mine. This is very refreshing, especially during July and August.
This is the must-try mushroom soup that you can find at Joey's Restaurants up here in the Northwest. It's my all-time favorite mushroom soup, and I think that is because of the sherry that is added. When...
Something I whipped up from a combination of recipes -- really hearty and filling. Great for canned or fresh tomatoes, especially during the summer season!
This recipe has been in our family since 1976. It was my dad's recipe given to him by a friend. He won 3rd place at the Southern New Mexico State Fair in 1978. He passed away that month and never knew...
I've been eating creamed tomatoes over biscuits or cornbread my entire life. It's so yummy! For those who've never had it, it tastes similar to creamy tomato soup, but it's thicker. I grew up in rural...
This is wonderful served with cheese and crackers. It is also a great addition to a salad. You will think of other wonderful ways to serve these once you have tried them!
These tiny tomatoes give a burst of concentrated tomato flavor to just about anything... pizza, salads, pasta sauces, as an accompaniment to roasted meat or fish, or just plain, hot out of the oven......
This is great for French fries, a base for chicken or shrimp salad, or to just dip vegetables or chips. We use it as a dip for shrimp cocktail instead of cocktail sauce. Let chill for 15 minutes before...
