This Amish macaroni salad is a colorful and flavorful dish made with hard-cooked eggs, bell pepper, and celery in a creamy dressing. Best macaroni salad I have ever had. I always get many requests for the recipe. Enjoy!
Green Grape Salad
This grape salad is a wonderful creamy dessert salad that never fails to be a hit! Made the day before, the brown sugar makes the sauce taste like caramel. You can use less brown sugar, if you wish.
Healthier Basic Crepes
I love this recipe because it is so simple to make. I have made it healthier by substituting whole wheat flour and 1% milk. I like to fill them with non-fat plain Greek yogurt and blueberries warmed in maple syrup. Yum!
