Fresh Frozen Cucumbers
This recipe for freezer cucumbers makes it easy to enjoy "fresh" cucumbers in the winter. It's also a great way to use up all those extra cucumbers from the garden!
Cheeseburger Egg Rolls
I had something similar at a restaurant, threw these together at home, and they were pretty good! As a dipping sauce, use mayo and catsup mixed together.
Spicy Southwestern Slaw
Great topping for tacos--also a nice side dish for any type of Mexican or Tex-Mex entree! Hint: The measurements are approximate- I usually make this without any. You can use green or purple cabbage, or a combination of the two. Same goes for green or red bell peppers. For extra heat, use an additional jalapeno pepper.
