This chicken salad has a bright, robust taste from the lemon dill dressing, which is a nod to another Allrecipes submission, Easy Lemony-Dilly Cucumber Salad. We like it served on toasted croissants.

Pumpkin Hummus, Caramelized Onion and Fontina Cheese Pizzas
Use the pumpkin hummus recipe from this site to make this amazing pizza. I love to fool around in the kitchen and I came up with this pizza and my parents love it. For the onions, cut them from one root end to the others and then slice them in little strips between the roots. They will be narrower on the ends and this keeps them from disintegrating during the caramelizing and cooking process.
Red Chard and Caramelized Onions
This dish is good hot or at room temperature. I serve it as a side when the kids want mac and cheese for dinner. They do not eat it, but it makes me feel grown-up. It is very tasty.
