Recipe of the Week: Eggy Salad Dressing

Eggy Salad Dressing is an alternative to chopping up hard boiled eggs for a salad. It appeals to be because it spreads the egg all through the salad. I enjoyed this ‘meal in a bowl.’

Hard boil two eggs. Let them cool. Remove off the shells. Place in a small food processor with a little olive oil, vinegar and seasoning. As you can see from the picture on the left, I used raspberry vinegar and basil/garlic seasoning. Alternatively, any vinegar and oil dressing you have on hand could be used. Process until smooth; it will have a smooth, icing-like consistency. Use as a salad dressing. The salad picture on left has frozen peas and corn (thawed) and celery. I added a little salt.

Eggy salad dressing also makes an excellent dip or spread for cucumber slices. Try a basil leaf on top for a burst of flavor from the garden!

Recipe of the Week: Blueberries

The blueberry season is beginning in North America. There are lots of ways to enjoy them but my favorite is just straight from the refrigerator - rinsed - savored one at a time.

It’s hard to pick a second-favorite. Competitors would be: 

  • Blueberries and melty vanilla ice cream
  • Frozen blueberries blended with milk and an apple (smoothie)
  • Blueberry muffins
  • Blueberry and watermelon or cantaloupe (fruit salad) 

Enjoy the fruits of early summer!
