24 Hour Salad
There are many versions of this 24 Hour Salad. It's perfect to bring to a potluck. Up to 24 hours before you plan to serve the salad, layer a large bowl in the exact order given. I have learned 2 tricks from Martha Stewart over the years, one is how to hard boil an egg perfectly (bring eggs to a boil, boil for 1 minute, remove from heat and cover for exactly 13 minutes), the second thing is you pour the dressing in the bottom of a salad bowl, put the salad ingredients on top and toss right before serving. This is also a great way to bring a salad to a potluck.

Chow Mein Burgers
Chow Mein Burgers is a family favorite. My mother-in-law got the recipe in the early ‘80s from a Weight Watchers cookbook. It’s a turkey burger that you serve without a bun. They are low-fat and crunchy. I love anything crunchy! You can serve them with rice and sugar snap or snow peas (more crunch!) This is a must-try!
