Several have never heard of Western dressing. A family favorite available at Walmart https://www.walmart.com/ip/55500600?sid=A48A143F-EB3B-48ED-ADE5-B16E669AD699

Ever made a salad in a jar? Very portable and makes a great make ahead meal. I made my wife and I a salad last night for our lunch today. Here’s how I did it. You start with what you want on top so when you put it onto a plate or in a bowl it comes out correctly. Tomatoes Diced Feta cheese cheese crumbles Bacon bits Diced ham Carrots Yellow pepper Celery Cucumber Chopped green leaf lettuce on top Put a lid on it and refrigerate. I put mine in a bowl and served with Western dressing. So good!!

I’m new here, and I really appreciate the focus on making the most of what you have. There’s something powerful about cooking with creativity and intention — turning simple, affordable ingredients into something genuinely satisfying. It also makes me think about how much skill and story sit behind everyday meals like these. I write about food, so going to have a careful look around the classroom! 😎

We have shared a lot of recipes and ideas. I want to know what you would like to know about. What is your request?? How to make bread? How to cut up a whole chicken? How to steam vegetables? Please tell me.

I was hungry today and I’m trying to make better choices. No sugar and Whole Foods. What did I have in the refrigerator? Small head of cabbage, I love cabbage any way you fix it. What else do I have? Sam’s all beef hotdogs. 🤔 I love stir fry cabbage. I cut my 2 hotdogs into bite size pieces. I cut up about 1/2 of a small cabbage. Heat my skillet on medium high and cook till brown on both sides. Add 1 T butter and a bit of water then add cabbage. Let it steam and then sauté it all together. Hot Dogs are 1.08 each. Cabbage .79 lb, it was very little. $2.95 lunch.
