24 Hour Fruit Salad
This is a wonderful salad that is easily adaptable, and can be served as a salad with a holiday meal or as a dessert. The original recipe called for canned fruit cocktail, but I have modified it from that. I'm also allergic to pineapple, so I either pick it out or substitute more of the other fruits instead. All the fruits are really to taste. I could eat myself sick on this stuff, it is so good.
5 Cup Salad
Quick and easy and very, very good. Update- the recipe I submitted did not contain salad greens. Because of the title of the recipe, it accidentally got added. However, considering the rave reviews the recipe is getting, I'm not going to remove the salad greens from the ingredients list. Obviously it is delicious no matter which way you make it!! Enjoy!

Adzuki Bean Soup
I've just discovered adzuki beans, and if you've never tried them, I strongly recommend them ! They are highly nutritious, and contain 25% protein, one of the highest ratios among beans. This spicy soup is a lovely way in which to make their acquaintance. My personal preference for the fresh garden herb mixture is half rosemary/half oregano, but by all means use what you like best !
