3 Cheese Salad
This recipe was shared with my sister years ago, and while it’s a family favorite, one of those recipes I tend to forget about. Not sure why? It’s delicious, amazingly crunchy, and comes together quickly. The dressing is 5 ingredients and would be amazing on so many other salad concoctions. Feeding a crowd? This recipe is easily scalable. Serves 4 entree portions in our household. I left the cherry tomatoes off in the photo since they aren’t in season, but they do add a wonderful pop of color to the plate.

Brussel Sprout Salad
When January rolls around, I am always a little tired of heavy foods and all the sugar from the holidays. I know I crave comfort food during the frigid Minnesota winter, but sometimes you need something fresh and light. This recipe tastes like sunshine!
I use my Cuisinart shredding blade to shred my brussel spouts in about 2 minutes – total game-changer and completes the bulk of the prep work in 2 minutes! You can also use a mandolin or knife to cut by hand. Or for a super short cut, buy the pre-shredded sprouts in the bag at your local grocery store, but the don’t taste nearly as fresh in my opinion.
