Dodo Salad

Because we've been living the Stringham lifestyle (read "cereal diet" or "food is optional") Rob's worried about getting too skinny and my recipe book has been neglected. I did make this for the fourth of July, however, and I highly recommend it. If you read the commentary at the beginning of the recipe, you'll also see that it's a great wedding gift idea, along with some salad bowls.

The salad that launched a blog

This really doesn't qualify as a recipe, unless your name is photo scrooge, but it belongs in our family favorites book, especially after Robbie wanted to start his own blog just to post this. I was hesitant to let the boys start a blog (I can't even keep up with my own!) but Rob encouraged them, and helped set it up, and now I'm looking forward to getting more of the boys perspective on our family doings. Credit goes to Anne for introducing us to this yummy combination at Bear Lake. And speaking of Anne, congratulations to you and Matt! We can't wait to meet little Clara!

Chinese Chicken Salad

Because (according to Rob) soup season is now officially over, my recipes for Cheese Soup, Chili and Taco Soup will not be posted before fall.  We are coming into salad season though, and this recipe is one of our favorites.

Southwest Bean Salad

This is especially for Shawn and Melissa—we were talking about salad recipes this morning, and it gave me an idea of what to fix for dinner tonight. I love this salad, and it is so unbelievably healthy that I'm hoping it will offset our family home evening treat! Rob tells me he's posting his favorite side dish for this meal here.
