Last but not least, Yvonne tosses together an effortless sweet treat to cap off the meal. "I received the recipe for Creamy Fruit Medley from a friend of my mother's years ago," she recalls. "I always have the ingredients on hand in case I need a quick dessert. "Any flavor of gelatin works well, and sometimes I spoon it into individual parfait glasses instead of serving it in one big bowl," Yvonne suggests. "Everyone enjoys it."

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients are, the better your salad will taste. Try to use organic produce whenever possible.
  • Chop your veggies evenly: This will help them cook evenly and make your salad more visually appealing.
  • Don't overcrowd your salad: If you add too much stuff, your salad will be difficult to eat and the flavors will be muddled. Aim for a balance of greens, veggies, protein, and dressing.
  • Start with a light dressing: You can always add more dressing if needed, but it's difficult to remove it if you add too much. A light vinaigrette or lemon-tahini dressing is a good option.
  • Add some crunch: Nuts, seeds, or crispy veggies like celery or bell pepper can add a nice textural contrast to your salad.
  • Don't forget the herbs: Herbs like basil, cilantro, or mint can add a lot of flavor to your salad. Use fresh herbs whenever possible.
