Greek Salad
It’s crazy to admit that this is the first time I have made a Greek Salad. I’ve loved every one I’ve ever enjoyed at a restaurant. For me it’s the combination of fresh ingredients with big bold flavor personalities, that somehow get along really well. No competitiveness here. I like it!!

On to the stage steps these gorgeous veggie pancakes. I did not plan for this. When I opened the refrigerator door I was reaching for coffee cream.

Warm 7-Layer Salad {or is it 8-Layers}
This Warm 7-Layer Salad is addicting and gorgeous. There’s so much going on here. Layers and layers of going on. Every bite is unique and delicious. All credit to Rachel Ray for this fabulous recipe. I must admit I was a bit skeptical the first time we made it, but once we took the first bite we were all in. That may have something to do with the wonderful bacon flavor infused throughout the layers.

Crab Rangoon Dip {with Wonton Chips}
Crab Rangoon Dip {with Wonton Chips}. Crab Rangoon are such a favorite around here. We even make them from scratch from time to time. But that was before I served this dip to my family on Sunday and then again to my work family on Monday. I think we’ll be cutting corners (instead of individually folding and deep frying) and jump right to the good stuff from now on. It was a huge hit!!
