About Me

My photo
I was raised by my father (God rest his soul) in the valley of Nebraska. The background picture is of the Scottsbluff National Monument I took on a trip home... Thank Goodness I had Czech & German Grandmother's and Aunt's who taught me how to cook, sew and overall be the most giving person ever. The lady in this picture is my Aunty. She passed from Alzheimer's a few years ago. and was a huge influence on who I am and how I love. She and My Best Friend inspired this blog... I don't want anything to be forgotten!

Diva’s Memories of Recipes
Vegetable Salad with Hominy
Inspiration:  This was given to me by a lady I use to work with at Delphi.  I have it written on an inter-shirt report paper in my recipe book.  We did that when we had carry in dinner's and loved someone else's cooking.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1 TB water
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
1/8 tsp pepper
1 TB parsley


1 14oz can hominy
1 14oz can green beans
1 14oz can kidney beans
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper

Instructions:
Add first 6 ingredients to a large saucepan and bring to a boil.  Remove and cool.


Combine drained veggies in a large bowl and stir in cooled dressing.  


Refrigerate over night.

Variation:  since I am diabetic, i substitute splenda for the sugar.  I also add tomato's when my kids are not eating this.
