Refreshing Tomato Salad – Recipe

Meatless dishes are a welcome change to our family’s daily routine of meat based meals.
Today I will post one of the tomato salads my mom used to prepare, which brings back many childhood memories.

Cucumber salad

I have just picked some fresh cucumbers from my garden…..they are so fresh and tender you can eat them with the peel on, unlike the ones you purchase at your grocer (no wax coating on these babies….).  

Cucumbers may be used in various ways: in tossed salads, tea sandwiches, sliced and served plain or with a dip, in numerous appetizers,  etc.  I love my cucumbers dressed with sour cream or vinaigrette style.

Jello Cheesecake – No Bake Low Fat Recipe

Today I will share a No Bake recipe for a Low Fat Jello Cheesecake, which is very simple to prepare, presents itself very nicely, and tastes delicious.

Jello Cheesecake is much lighter than a traditional cheesecake, and to make it even lighter, you may use 1/3 less fat cream cheese, which I tested on one of the layers, and it held up as well as the regular cheese.

Steamed Fruit Dumplings – Recipe and Technique

This recipe is a very old favorite of mine. It reminds me of my grandmother’s cooking days and my Sunday visits to her with my mom.
I love these fluffy dumplings because they are so light in texture, and so delicious served with melted butter and sugar.
This recipe goes back to my great-grandmother who was of German descent, and most likely back to her mother and grandmother, which datewise would go back to the 1700s.
