Spaghetti Salad


First of all I must apologize for the photo. I couldn't get my camera to understand how to adjust on a sketti salad.

Here is a recipe for a summer salad that we eat a lot. It makes a huge salad but stays good for a long time in the fridge so we eat the leftovers with lunch. I love this salad. It does take some prep time but it is worth it and it's easy.

1 pkg. spaghetti cooked as directed on package
1 TBS accent
3 TBS lemon juice
4 TBS Wesson oil
1 cup bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cups diced celery
1 small jar of pimento drained
1 5 ounce jar spanish olives
1/2 cup mayo

After cooking spaghetti, rinse in cold water and drain well. Add the next three ingredients; mix well and marinate overnight. Next day add the rest of ingredients, salt to taste and mix well. Refrigerate for several hours.

Broccoli Salad



I know everyone is Oklahoma probably has a Broccoli Salad recipe. This is how my Momma makes it so this is how I believe it should be done. Now all this can be adjusted to your liking. If you are a fan of some facebook page called Ilovebacon.com then you should probably add a little extra. Or if you don't care for red onion just add a little or none at all. It ain't rocket science folks. Try this salad. My family thinks it's a lovely treat and I have never taken it to a pot luck where I wasn't asked for the recipe.

Salad

1 bunch of broccoli diced
5 pieces of cooked bacon
1 cup shredded cheddar
1/2 cup red onion

Dressing

1 1/2 cups of mayo
1/2 cup of sugar
2 TBS. vinegar
