Salad Dressing Recipes

I’m slowly but surely gathering up all of my favorite salad dressing recipes… for my mom. Haha! I mean, I’m doing it for all of you as well, but this stems from a comment my mom made that I’m not completely ruminating on. 🙂 She said she doesn’t know how to make a good salad. AND, FURTHERMORE, she doesn’t really eat salad in the winter because she associates it with summer. 

Oh heck no. 

Salad is one of the greatest things of my life, so I absolutely have to help her out! Salads are the easiest recipe because literally anything goes. You wanna add roasted sweet potatoes? DO IT! You want to mix cottage cheese in? IT’S DELICIOUS!

The BEST Slow Cooker Pot Roast

Once upon a time, I was trying to figure out how to make the best pot roast in a crockpot. I was trying to figure out how to make a juicy roast by searing it, marinating it, injecting it, and so on and nothing was really hitting the spot for me. So I did what any normal person would do after an extended period of failures — I gave up. 

Okay, maybe everyone doesn’t give up, but I just decided that maybe a beef roast wasn’t my thing. I took up pork and it totally went well. We made carnitas, tender shredded Kalua pork and finally a juicy shredded beef. But it still didn’t taste like that classic pot roast. And the gravy wasn’t that brown gravy I wanted.

And then I tried this easy slow cooker pot roast and I have been sold ever since! The beef is tender and juicy. It creates wonderful drippings that make the best gravy.

If you’ve been wondering how to make French toast that’s perfectly crisp on the outside and soft in the center, this is it. We even have a secret ingredient in the batter!

Easy French Toast Recipe

When I was about seven or eight, my uncle came to visit — my dad’s cool brother with the convertible we all loved riding in. One morning my mom made French toast, and I watched in disbelief as Uncle Richard skipped the maple syrup, grabbed the homemade raspberry syrup, and then piled on the powdered sugar. Mom didn’t say a word.

So, naturally, I followed his lead. I stretched my skinny little arm across the table, grabbed the powdered sugar, and absolutely covered my French toast. It was amazing.

These days I just add a light dusting, but it still makes me laugh how much other people shape our food habits. Years later, I was at a friend’s house when his mom offered me French toast… with cheese.

Cheese?! On French toast?! My brain said no — cheese belongs in eggs or on breakfast sandwiches, not soaking in custard. But of course I tried it, and one bite completely won me over. It didn’t make sense, but it was delicious.

I never did figure out exactly how she made it, but I’ll tell you this—that moment kicked off my lifelong love of sweet and salty flavors.
