Honey Dijon Potato Salad


This is one of those comfy recipes.  The potato salad is creamy and homey and very likable.  So when Hubby asked me to make potato salad for the Sabbath, I went to this recipe which comes from Taste of Home.

Speaking of comforts, came Sunday and my neighbor knocked on the door, telling us that her house had been broken in to.  She had been home an hour and went into her bedroom to find the window forced open.  We believe this is an inside job since only money was taken and the thieves knew exactly where to go.  

At first, I thought to be scared but I have learned, over the years that fear does not help.  Living our lives normally does help.  Funny how talking to oneself makes a difference.  Perhaps some of that comforting potato salad would have been an aid.


Honey Dijon Potato Salad - Taste of Home

Ingredients:
3 medium potatoes
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/4 cup chopped green pepper

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Add the green pepper, onion, pickles, seasoning blend and pepper.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, salad dressing, mustard. Pour over potato mixture; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
