Cucumber Slices With Dill

I happen to love cucumbers, especially with dill. When I was a kid, I was often found twirling around in my parent's Eames chair (now worth a fortune), eating whole cucumbers while watching Dark Shadows or Love American Style (what a great show!) or the Brady Bunch or Laugh-In (another classic!). Okay, I'll stop. Try these Cucumber Slices With Dill!

Deviled Eggs with Tarragon and Cornichons

Deviled Eggs with Tarragon and Cornichons - Who doesn't love deviled eggs? One of my favorite variations of deviled eggs are Eggs Mimosa made with avocado, which is a brilliant combination. My husband happens to love tarragon and cornichons, so we had to try it.

Homemade Pickled Jalapeños

Homemade Pickled Jalapeños

Homemade Pickled Jalapeños are very easy to make. You can use them for nachos and tacos, cheese omelets, pizza, burgers, hot dogs, grilled cheese, etc. I recently needed one jalapeño and had to buy a whole bag of them. My jalapeño plant in the back yard is not doing very well at the moment.

Crispy Beef & Pickle Tacos

Crispy Beef & Pickle Tacos

These Crispy Beef & Pickle Tacos were created by Steve Arroyo, when he owned a restaurant called Malo in Los Angeles, CA. He opened up Escuela Taqueria in Pasadena, where I was first introduced to these absolutely delicious tacos, that are stuffed with crispy fried beef, cheddar cheese and dill pickle chips. It's like a burger in a taco shell!

Refrigerator Pickles

Refrigerator Pickles

I made these amazing Refrigerator Pickles. I had never made pickles before. My family was very dubious, until they tasted them 6 hours later. They are completely hooked. They were scarfing them down at 11:30 at night in their PJs. It was so successful, that I went out and bought more vinegar to make more. I want to try to make green beans, carrots, asparagus and snap peas!
