What I love about this white bean salad is that it is so easy, and it’s good protein too. I have been highlighting some of my healthy soups, salads, and chilis this month, but I saved the best for last. This navy bean salad would make an excellent picnic salad because you can make it a day ahead. There is no dairy to worry about the extra time time until you serve it gives the flavors more time to marinate the beans. The most involved part of this side dish is letting the beans drain, chill and marinate. The whole family will ask for seconds.
This recipe for Amish Pasta Salad is so good. I can eat this salad for any meal and it is great to take to a function. Served with my famous broasted chicken and some warm bread you have a meal that is fit for a queen. This side dish can easily replace any potato choice. All you need is a veggie and some wine! Pasta, celery, eggs, spices and mayo make this pasta salad more delicious than you have ever eaten.
This cool Fresh Melon Fruit Salad is perfect for a pot luck, picnic, or a nice family barbecue. In season fruit is so sweet and hits the craving for something easy, delicious and thirst quenching. My family enjoys this dish fo any get together or family outing. I know your family will love this fruit salad too. The honey and lime marinade not only brings out the flavor of the fruit but keeps it from turning brown and mushy. Enjoy!

I love the new look and layout of your blog! These recipes look good too.
Thank you Joanne! I love the new home page the best. A lot of my custom code is behind the scenes. Trying to make it “senior easy” with darker text and larger letters. Enjoy your day!
These are great Marilyn. I’m needing some more recipes that have beans and other things as my sources of protein. Always love a good pasta and fruit salad. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you Chas. Glad I can help you brainstorm! I hope you enjoy your day!
