It has been so hot out lately (we are having a bit of a reprieve this week only going into the low 80's). I have been trying to avoid cooking indoors, which is okay cause I love to barbeque anyways.
Figured I would start a thread on some bbq recipes and salads etc. as I am running out of ideas.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
SPINACH SALAD
This recipe I just kind of eye ball the amounts. Depending on how many people need to be fed.
Baby spinach leaves
thinly sliced apples (green or golden delicious are nice)
strawberries
slice the apples and the strawberries and toss them into the baby spinach leaves. I have found that a creamy poppyseed dressing (kraft brand I do believe) or a raspberry vinegrette is really nice with the spinach.
FRESH CUCUMBER AND ONION SALAD
If you are lucky enough to have fresh small cucumbers from your garden and sweet onion, these are the best. Simply peel and cut the cucumbers and the onions in a bowl. In a jar place about a cup of sour cream (low fat works too) and add vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. The amount of vinegar is dependent on how tart you want the dressing to be. Shake the mixture adding more sour creme or vinegar and salt and pepper and simply pour it over the cucumbers and onion. It is delicious.
Anyone else have a good recipe to share?
