here is another tasty recipe...

here is a great recipe from the cookbook, from Kelly Hollenbeak, she is a fab cook! am always happy that she brings me a meal when I have a baby. She has the best apple pie recipe, which is not in the cookbook. Will ahve to get it from her. she also makes a green salad with olives, red onions, fontina cheese and this great dressing from Zias.com (she is from St.louis where the restaurant is), but you can order it online.

Carver's Salad

1 bag spinach
1 bunch green leaf lettuce
1 bunch red leaf lettuce
1 bag crainsins
1 c. caramelized almonds
1/2 red onion, chopped

dressing:
1 1/2 c. oil
1 1/2 tsp/ salt
1 c. sugar
1/4 c. finely chopped red onion
1 1/2 T. poppy seeds
3/4 c. red wine vinegar
3/4 tsp/ dry vinegar

toss salad ingredients. Add dressing ingredients to a blender, blend until liquid. Shake well before adding to salad.
for almonds: use 1/2 c. sugar and 1 c. slivered almonds. add both to frying pan on med heat. Heat stirring almost constantly until sugar melts and coats almonds. cool on wax paper or cookie sheet.

Is Max allergic to almonds as well as cashews & sunflowers???
