My Husband's Favorite Recipes from Salad in a Jar


Father's Day got me thinking about all the recipes my husband has taste-tested over the years.

Today I'm sharing four of his favorites. As it turns out, many of them are reader favorites, too.

WELCOME BREAD MACHINES YOGURT SALAD IN A JAR RECIPE INDEX My creativity in the kitchen has gone into hiding during the high temperatures of the past few weeks. I’m hoping it comes back soon.
