Cold Macaroni and Tuna Salad
This cold tuna salad is a simple and good recipe that is great served on those hot summer days. It can even be prepared the night before so that it is ready and cold when you come home from work the next day. My husband never ate this until we got married; now, he requests it every other week in the summer. You can substitute chicken for the tuna, which is also great. I serve it on a leaf of lettuce, for looks, with an assortment of crackers. Happy eating!
Chipotle and Adobo Pickled Eggs
These pickled eggs are great sliced and served on a salad or just eat them plain for a quick low carb snack! You can adjust the heat by adding more or less chipotle and adobo.
Neeps and Tatties
When we went to Edinburgh for Hogmanay, our friends made this for us, along with a slice of haggis! This neeps and tatties recipe is a traditional Scottish side dish that goes well with beef roast or chicken. It is also a great way to use an often overlooked vegetable: the swede (aka yellow turnip, rutabaga, or Swedish turnip).
