Question: Going off of jennyanydots post for salads at a BBQ...

[Lachesis00]

Do you have a special recipe for cole slaw, baked beans, potatoe salad, macaroni salad or whatever your speciality is for a BBQ/informal gathering?


My mom's secret is for potatoe salad is for every potatoe you use, you must use 2 hard boiled eggs. She also uses dry mustard, mayo (best foods only!), olives, onions, and celery, salt and pepper....

Man makes me want some right now!

Actually, instead of macaroni salad, sometimes I make a pasta salad with fresh veggies -- broccoli, carrots, maybe some frozen peas (you drain the pasta over the peas to defrost them) and a dressing made from balsamic vinegar and honey mustard. Yummy.

I am scared to make my own dressing. I watch them do it on Food Network and think "I can do that" and then I chicken out LOL and do something like a bottle of italian.

I don't make any of those mayo-ish salads. I still think the best baked beans out there are Bush's Country Style. I could eat a whole can myself...and pay for it later!!
