Canned Chicken Salad Recipe

June 12, 2020 by Faith 40 Comments

This Canned Chicken Salad Recipe is easy to make in less than 10 minutes! It’s creamy like tuna salad and seasoned simply with seasoned salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. This version is healthier than most and replaces most of the mayo with Greek yogurt!

I remember my mom having her friends over for ladies’ luncheons when I was a kid. She’d make mint-flavored iced tea or lemonade to drink and fruit salad for dessert. She’d usually serve one of two things for lunch: a pretty arranged salad on a bed of greens along with a couple of sides (one of which was always cottage cheese with chives, which was her favorite), or tuna salad sandwiches.…

Creamy Cucumber Salad Recipe

With a base of mostly yogurt, this Creamy Cucumber Salad Recipe is lower in calories and fat, but still has all the flavor! A sprinkle of goat cheese (or feta) and fresh herbs really take the taste up a notch. I have had more than my fair share of cucumber salads in my day!...

Cranberry Walnut Chicken Salad Recipe

February 24, 2020 by Faith 11 Comments

This Cranberry Walnut Chicken Salad Recipe is easy to make with leftover chicken and full of flavor! It has nutty crunch from walnuts, bursts of sweet/tart cranberries, and a creamy dressing. The other day Mike and I went to Al Mubarakiya, the old market here in Kuwait. (If you’re interested, you can check out my photos of the old market here on my Instagram feed.) We had absolutely no intention of buying anything. Famous last words, lol!...

Creamy Brussels Sprouts Salad

November 7, 2019 by Faith 10 Comments

This Creamy Brussels Sprouts Salad only has four ingredients, is full of crunch and has a rich, creamy, zippy dressing! It’s sure to be a crowd-pleaser and a great addition to your holiday table! I wish I could say that me and Brussels sprouts go way back, but we just don’t. Growing up, I wasn’t much of a picky eater, except for foods that were highly pungent. That basically eliminated things like sauerkraut, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts from my diet, lol....

Cauliflower Potato Salad

June 24, 2019 by Faith 2 Comments

Cauliflower Potato Salad (aka mock potato salad or low carb potato salad) has a mayo-based dressing with a touch of Dijon, dill, and a few spices. It’s every bit as delicious as regular potato salad, but with a fraction of the carbs! The magical property of cauliflower is that you can transform it into almost anything else. Cauliflower lends itself well to low carb simulations of pizza crust, bread sticks, rice, mashed potato, macaroni and cheese, and yes, even potato salad! I know what you’re thinking, and I was skeptical too, but let me explain....

Spicy Blue Cheese Celery Slaw

January 30, 2014 by Faith 7 Comments

Spicy Blue Cheese Celery Slaw features the crunch of celery in a creamy dressing with a punch of heat from Frank’s RedHot and the tangy flavor of blue cheese. It’s perfect served with Buffalo wings or Buffalo Chicken Burgers! When I was younger I hated celery with a purple passion, lol. As the perfect vessel for things like peanut butter, cream cheese, or French onion dip, celery is such an odd vegetable to hate on. But I wouldn’t have been caught dead munching a celery stick. Not even along with a chicken wing and blue cheese for dipping!...
