Sunflower Strawberry Salad






....another wonderful cookbook from Gooseberry Patch.

Folks...I'm telling you....if you haven't checked out any of these cookbooks, 
then you're just plain missing out. 
The full color photos show you exactly what you're preparing.
(of course my dish doesn't always look like the photo)
The tried and true recipes are from cooks...like you and me....
not some big high falutin chef that you find on Food TV.

Oh my....you're going to love these tummy temptin' recipes!
101 Farmhouse Favorites consists of five wonderful 'chapters'.
Break of Day Breakfasts
Garden-Fresh Soups and Salads
Family Dinner Favorites
Blue-Ribbon Desserts
Classic Country Canning
,,,,,some of the best down home cookin' you'll ever find!

And speaking of "find", you can find this delicious cookbook at the following locations!

Gooseberry Patch

Did you by chance catch the review for the first recipe...
Crescent Breakfast Casserole
from the chapter
Break of Day Breakfasts
No? You can find it





The next Chapter in this book is called 
Garden-Fresh Soups and Salads.
This was a tough decision for me. 
Do I share a recipe for soup because it's been so cold and gloomy?
No...I believe, this time, I'm going to share this beautiful salad...

I needed something to perk up a meal with the color and taste of summer!



Sunflower Strawberry Salad

2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 apple, cored and diced
1 cup seedless grapes, halved
1/2 cup celery, thinly sliced
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup strawberry yogurt
2 TBSP sunflower kernels
Optional: Lettuce leaves

In a large bowl, combine fruit, celery, and raisins.
Stir in yogurt.
Cover and chill one hour.
Sprinkle with sunflower kernels just before serving.
Spoon over lettuce leaves, if desired.
Makes 6 servings
