Directions

Sweet Potato Salad

2 pounds sweet potatoes

1 1/2 cups mayonnaise

1/4 tsp. salt

4 hard cooked eggs,chopped

1 1/2 cups finely chopped celery

8 green onions,sliced

Place sweet potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Cover and boil gently until the potatoes can easily be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 30-45 minutes. Drain. When potatoes are cool, peel and dice. In a large bowl,combine mayonnaise,mustard and salt. Stir in eggs,celery and onions. Add potatoes; stir gently to mix. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.

BROCCOLI SALAD

DRESSING:

3/4 to 1 cup Mayonnaise

1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar

3 TBSP. Wine Vinegar

SALAD MIX

1 or more broccoli heads, cut into tiny florets

1/2 to 1 cup raisins

3 to 10 Slices of bacon, cut into one-inch pieces and fried crisp

1/3 to 1/2 cup finely chopped purple onion

1/2 cup celery diced (optional)

1/2 to 1 cup unsalted sunflower seeds

In a large bowl, combine broccoli, raisins, onions, sunflower seeds, and celery (if using)

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise , sugar and vinegar. Pour over broccoli mixture; toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. Just before serving,

sprinkle on bacon and toss. If bacon is cooked ahead of time, warm it in the microwave. NOTE: We like more than !/2 cup of celery in it.

often serve it with out bacon. We like it both ways.

I plump the raisins in hot water, then drain them before adding them.

Sugar can be adjusted to taste. I add less.

Pasta Salad Supreme

16 ounces rotini, fusilli, or shell pasta

1 (8 ounce) bottle Italian or ranch-style salad

dressing

4 tablespoons McCormick Salad Supreme Seasoning

5 cups assorted raw vegetables: tomatoes, carrots, broccoli, or red onions.

Cook pasta according to package directions. Rinse under cold water to stop cooking and drain well.

Place pasta in large salad bowl, add dressing and seasoning, and toss gently to coat.

Cut vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Add vegetables to pasta and mix gently.
