Tomato and Feta Salad Recipe
This tomato and feta salad is so simple to make and so pretty to look at that it's become that special potluck dish we take to every party and family event. People rave over it and everyone wants the recipe, I can even get most of the kids to eat it - I still have one that resists anything with green in it, and one that just doesn't do cheese. It only takes a few minutes … [Read more...]

Then I thought this would make the perfect lunch for a chilly fall day. But it's … [Read more...]
