Potato Dumplings (Palushky)

If you are craving Varenyky (also known as Pyrohy or Pierogi) but it is too hot to cook or you have no time for such a project, Palushky (Plachyky, Kopytka, or Gnocchi) is an excellent alternative.

It is simple, quick, and delicious. I love to serve mine with butter and sautéed onions, a dollop of sour cream, and a side vegetable dish like broccoli, mixed vegetables, or cooked carrots.

Happy Mother’s Day!!

Mother’s Day is a perfect time to express your feelings and appreciation to any and all of the special women in your life.

Sorrel Borscht (Shchav, Shchavel) – Recipe

If you like tangy-flavored soups, you will love Sorrel Borscht (Shchav or Shchavel), also referred to by others as Green Borscht.   My first experience tasting this dish was in a Polish restaurant while visiting my family in Poland.
The special ingredient is sorrel, a simple herb/vegetable, however, not easily found in a grocery store, but rather in a specialty food shop, or grown in your garden. 

Green Goddess Quinoa Salad – Recipe

This Quinoa Salad with Magic Green Sauce became my favorite from the first time my daughter-in-law served it for lunch during one of our visits.
It could easily be a light lunch, or as an accompaniment to a main course.
Today I will share a recipe for the salad, since you already have the sauce/dressing recipe from my previous post.
