Tomato, Strawberry and Mozzarella Salad

July 21, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

This Tomato, Strawberry and Mozzarella Salad is the perfect Summer side salad. Let’s start with the fact that it is easy. I used Backyard Farms Cocktail Tomatoes, just picked strawberries, and fresh mozzarella. The flavor is light and tomatoes and strawberries go so well together. The basil just adds to the freshness of the salad….

Simple Salad Dressing

January 20, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

When I lived in Paris, my dear friend Madeleine taught me how to make this Simple Salad Dressing. I have not bought a salad dressing in a store, since 2004. You can vary the dressing by changing the kind of vinegar (red wine, white wine, champagne, balsamic, lemon, lime, or orange), depending on what you are…

Grilled Shrimp Tomato Avocado Salad

I made this Grilled Shrimp Tomato Avocado Salad and put it in a mason jar for a group boating party. The kind of party where you have four boats rafted together and you pass food from boat to boat. It is spicy, fresh and perfect for twelve people. Just grab a fork or a spoon and eat…

Potato Salad

August 19, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

  This is Grandma Toots’ potato salad. It is the creamy kind with the crunch of vegetables. Every time I make it, and every time I taste it, I think of all of the family events where this was enjoyed. Every family gathering, confirmation, graduation, pre-wedding, everything! Even people in our family that do not…

Kale Salad with Pomegranate Molasses Dressing and Ricotta Cheese

January 25, 2016 By Bonnie Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

This salad has become a holiday favorite on the Meadow.  We love to decorate with seasonal flora and fauna and if a few pomegranates go missing from a mantle display or decorative bowl, no one will be the wiser. Kale has such a fibrous texture that we find it to be more agreeable to our…
