SUMMER FOOD (40)
I eat allllll kinds of stuff in the summer. All that stuff sounds great. Quiche sounds extra creative. I love quiche and its supposed to be easy to make.
I just remembered I have a Linds McCartney recipe book full of cold vegetable soups.
Today I made a Waldorf Salad
( I found out about Waldorf salad because of an episode of Fawlty Towers.)
Diced apples
Toasted walnuts
Frozen raisins
Mayo
Lemon Juice (Keeps the apples from browning.)
Allspice
White sugar
Lettuce
A small amount of raspberry vinaigrette dressing

Last time I made this was in a 2kg batch, 25 people and they were all gone before they got cold. Even the kids were eating them and complaining that their lips were burning as they shoved another one in.

I like to make Mexican food. Enchiladas and tacos and taco salad and breakfast burritos with eggs, cactus, cheese and fake sausage, and Spanish rice and refried beans. Mmmmmmm nom nom nom nom nom! The stuff uses all the same ingredients like Cajun food. I've been meaning to make some Cajun food. My family is part Cajun, but we say "Acadian." We don't talk like the Cajun Cook at all, BTW.

Well, nectarine and boiled potatoes are an interesting combination in a garden salad. I like the idea of both ingredients but I would put them intwo different salads.
