Some of my favorite main dishes
Barb's Easy Stove-top
Beans
It's easy and flexible. This is, like most of the recipes I use day in an
day out, not always the same. It took me a long time to realize that many
recipes are just jumping off places. The ingredients that remain pretty constant
are listed here: 4...
Barb's Cheese and
Swiss Chard Squares
This is one of our favorite autumn and winter dishes for whenever it's cool
enough to use the oven in comfort. It's fast and easy, as are most of my
favorite recipes. Assembly takes little time once the chard is cleaned and ready
to go. You...
Stove-Top Broccoli and
Sausage Pasta
It's one of my old standby recipes when time is short or the day is hot. I
usually buy a large package of Polish or other Smoked Sausage and keep it in the
freezer. When I have fresh broccoli to use, I can have this on the table in
about 45 minutes...
Barb's Favorite Spanish Rice
Casserole
I love it, too, because it's easy to make. It also goes with many different
salads. I've had it with green salad, bean salad, and broccoli salad. You can
serve it with corn chips or with crusty bread to finish off the meal. This
Spanish rice recipe...
Barb's Favorite Black
Bean Soup
It's both nutritious and delicious. Serves four as a meal. Prepare in about
45 minutes, including cooking time.. I adapted this recipe from one found in
Reader's Digest Great Recipes for Good Health. and I like it better because of
the added nutrie...

Making
Serbian Musaka with Potatoes
- You may know musaka as moussaka, but Serbs spell it musaka. We serve this
as one of the dishes in our Slava meal. Because we enjoy it so much, and
because it's healthy , we also eat it at other times. I have made the low-fat
version here. You c...

Barb's Favorite Tuna
Casserole
- This is my very favorite tuna casserole recipe. It has been adapted from
several different ones I have used as I've played with ingredients. The
original recipe called for frozen peas and carrots and we were both very happy
with it, as were our c...
Some of my favorite salad recipes
Most are quick and easy.
Although I enjoy a good green salad as much as anyone else, especially with a
pasta dish, sometimes it just doesn't go with the meal or I happen to be out of
greens. These are some of the other salads we really enjoy.

Carrot-Raisin Salad Recipe
- Sometimes a green salad just doesn't go with a meal. Today I made Barb's
Cheese and Chard Squares. I thought they needed a carrot and raisin salad
to set them off, so I decided to invent one that might be better than most
I...

Festive Broccoli Salad
for Thanksgiving
- It's colorful and tasty, and it's also very easy to make. I have adapted
this recipe from one I tried at Trader Joe's a few years ago, and we've been
enjoying it ever since. Some ingredients can only be found packaged at Trader
Joe&#...

Serbian Tomato Salad
- When you've got the ingredients you'll have it done in 15 minutes. As I
write this, the daytime temperatures outside are in the triple digits and it
doesn't cool off much under the seventies at night. That means it's so hot
without air conditioning...

Making Creamy Cucumber
Salad
- During the late summer, I usually have the few ingredients needed. You
will need cucumbers -- one large long green one or two or three lemon
cucumbers, for each two people. You will also need plain yogurt, some fresh
garlic, and some onion soup mi
