Classic Macaroni Salad
Great sweet and sour type macaroni salad. I cut back on the sugar to 1/3 cup and used cider vinegar and dijon mustard. I think this would be great with cut-up hard boiled eggs.

Salmon Dill Croissants
Delicious. I used cooked fresh salmon, reduced the cream cheese to 3 oz(less fat), and no liquid smoke. Creamy texture with bite from the horseradish and onions. Great on a sandwich.

Irish Soda Bread
The best irish soda bread recipe I've tried. I substituted 1/2 the flour as pastry whole wheat, used 2 cups of raisins, used margarine on crust when hot instead of dusting with flour, and no caraway seeds. I believe 3 cups of raisins would be too much to serve it along with corned beef. This is a fine crumb cake like bread versus recipes with cut-in fat that have a more biscuit type texture. Recommend not adding more flour than recipe calls for. It will be too sticky to knead but just stir with spatula 10 to 12 times. I split the bread into two round loafs so that the bread would cook throughly before becoming too brown. I recommend cooking until a toothpick is clean or an internal temperature of 180 .
