AUNT TRISH'S SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Place the olive oil, Parmesan, salt, pepper to taste, sugar, paprika, lemon juice and garlic into a jar. Shake it up and store in the fridge at least 24 hours before serving.
• Serve the dressing with green lettuce leaves, sliced red onions and halved grape tomatoes. Also works well on pasta salad.

AUNT DOROTHY'S MARINATED CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Place the carrots in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until carrots are tender. Do not over cook, the carrots should be firm but easy to bite into. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking.
• In the container of a food processor or blender, combine the tomato soup, sugar, oil, vinegar, cayenne pepper, salt and mustard powder. Blend for about 3 minutes or until creamy.
• In a large bowl, mix together the carrots, green, red and yellow bell peppers and onion. Toss with the dressing, cover and refrigerate overnight. The longer this salad is allowed to sit, the better it is.

AUNT DOT'S CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Boil chicken thighs until tender and shred into pieces when cool enough to handle.
• Melt butter and saute chopped onions and chopped celery until softened. Crumble corn bread (sometimes I use cornbread muffins from the bakery section of my local supermarket) and seasoned bread crumbs.
• Add the onions, celery, milk, soup, salt, pepper, and seasonings.
• Add chicken and chicken broth one cup at a time or until mixture has a smooth consistency.
• Beat eggs slightly and add to mixture.
• I usually do a taste test at this point and add more seasonings if needed. Bake in a large greased pan at 375 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes or until top is golden brown.
