Classic Pasta Salad

Ambrosia
Ambrosia Heavenly salad or dessert. Easy to make classic. Perfect for summer. I have always loved ambrosia…although we never called it that! My mother never made this, but my friend’s mom did.

Dulce de Leche
Dulce de Leche The easiest way I know to make this to-die-for concoction! Who doesn’t love dulce de leche? I always wanted to make this but I didn’t want to boil cans for hours on the stovetop due to the cost of LP gas (bottled, which I must have here in the boonies). Didn’t want…

Cheesy Pretzel Bites
Cheesy Pretzel Bites Another copycat of a Schwan’s favorite! Much cheaper and tastier. I admit. I’m a Schwan’s freak. Love their food. However, their food is pricy and has gotten more expensive lately as well as them now charging a “surcharge” for their delivery costs. Unfortunately, it’s gotten too rich for my blood. Always loved…
