Ham Salad

Welcome back!

Since I mentioned it before, I figured that i would talk about how i fixed this tasty food.

I do not have a blender to chop up ham or pork. I cheat and use lunch meat that is finely sliced.
Place it on my cutting board and mince it up finely. The boiled eggs are easy. I used to use 1,00 Island and then would mix it all up. It worked nicely.

4oz thinly sliced ham
6 boiled eggs
1/2 cup 1,000 Island

This mix on toast is great and easy. If you can think of a good substitute for the 1,000 Island, I would love to hear about it.

What to do?

I genuinely enjoy eating egg salad sandwiches, ham, and tuna also. They are so easy to fix, that it is amazing there are not a lot of recipes on possible variations.

My question is this. What do you do when one of your family members cannot eat Mayo, or 1,000 Island salad dressing. The 1,000 Island makes it easy to fix the mix without a lot of worry. What do you use instead of those things, though?

I have been trying to think about that and have come up with some really strange ideas. :)
I have thought about using BBQ sauce - not with tuna, no thanks. I have also thought about using Caesar salad dressing, but it uses Parmesan cheese which my husband can’t eat. So, what do I do next? Haven’t figured it out, yet.

Clean Up

There are so many hits out in the world about cleaning up things. I have read some amazing ideas tht can help, I just wish that I could remember where they were.

There is one that my husband showed me that does work and it is neither hard, nor expensive.

To clean your windshield on your car. I learned is easy. It involves a bottle of club soda. Just club soda and your windshield wipers. The soda wish bubble up dirt that might otherwise stick, and since it does not contain sugar or coloring, there is not damage to your paint job. Of course most of the vehicles that we have owned have had no worries there as they have older cars.

Just have someone outside start to pour the soda on the glass and start your wipers. EASY :)

A Little Off The Top Please

Nope, I am not talking about cutting hair at this time, although I have done that, too.

I am talking about the times that you might have onions in your fridge for too long. Have you ever seen them when they start to grow and get lots of green things sticking out of them? Believe it or not, but those onions are not for throwing away. Those green tops are great for using as season in many things. Eggs when scrambled, omelettes, soups, meat sauces, and all sorts of things can use ‘green onions for flavoring. When those onions get those green tops, voila, you have green onions.

If you wanted to start you own garden, onions that have sprouted, potatoes that have sprouted are all starts for regular plants. I like to let the potatoes grow so I can have some greenery out in front of our apartment, too. I even have a couple of potatoes waiting right now to be planted. I hope they grow. I like plants. Not always to eat, sometimes just to look at.
