They all look good! Valerie
...wonderful suggestions!
They all look beautiful. We've enjoyed the Greek roasted pepper and mushroom salad sans cheese. I like how easy the recipe is to customize to taste.
They all sound good but it's the salad that appeals to me the most!
These all look so delicious!
Nice suggestions, I like the Mushroom, red pepper and feta one.
Those all look wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd go for the mushrooms, that looks a delicious dish.
I caramelize onions all the time -- one of my favorite things to do for sauces or soup. This salad looks just divine!
Wonderful suggestions, I like them.
Not a fan of mushrooms..Those dishes look good though..ENjoy the rest of your week..
These are all so lovely! I especially enjoy a good salad.
I'm thankful for the time you take to find these delicious looking recipes - thank you Jan (and Eddie) ...Eddie - especially for the music you share.
Thank you. They do look good, and could be varied to taste and for the season too.
Jan - the Greek recipe and the curry are both intriguing to me. When we get back from vacation, they will go on the list to try. Enjoy the rest of your week!
