The weather forecast for the coming week in New Jersey keeps us sweltering in the 90s, with a heat index pushing 100. Gross. It's definitely not the right weather for turning on any heating element...There is a lot of salad, cold soup, and fruit in my near future. With that in mind, this week's poll on what recipe I should post on Wednesday is going to focus on easy-to-make, minimal or no-heat-required food.
The options are:
A) Russian chicken salad from Everyday Super Food
B) Lentil-beet salad from Urban Pantry
C) No-bake Oreo mint bars from Cookies and Cups
D) Cranberry-orange shortbread from Joy the Baker
Meanwhile, if you have suggestions for other dishes or cookbooks you'd like to see covered, please feel free to suggest something.
I vote for Lentil-Beet Salad. It would be interesting to find out what you think of the textures and flavors of the pairing. Is it possible to make lentils taste good enough for Dad to eat them?
Russian chicken salad
I suppose I should have worked out what to do in the case of a tie. The obvious conclusion is-in the case of a tie, the Wed night recipe will go to the first requested of the two, and I'll follow up another day on the other one 🙂
Thanks for voting!
ps-I hope so 🙂 John and Joy said the lentil salad was perfect for dinner on a hot night
