Spicy Chopped Cheese Sandwich
The chopped cheese sandwich originated in New York City. Traditionally, it is made on a flat-top grill and is not spicy. I do not have a flat top and wanted to incorporate some heat, so here is my not-so-traditional version!
Tuna Antipasto Salad Bowl
When the weather gets hot, we make a big salad for supper several times a week. This part antipasto, part tuna pasta salad, is my husband's favorite. With some crusty bread, it is a meal all in itself. It is easily adaptable to your family's preferences. I sometimes add other kinds of marinated vegetables and/or strips of mozzarella cheese or provolone cheese.
Pup-Cakes
These are nice cupcake treats for dogs that I made up for my dog Presley's 4th birthday. They are perfect for dogs with food allergies. Warning: they don't look pretty, but Fido will love them! These freeze well, and you can zap them in the microwave for a nice, occasional dog snack.
