I have lots of recipes and I enjoy trying new recipes but I only keep the ones my family approves of. I decided one day to put my recipes where they are more organized and I can access them anywhere. I don't have fun pictures to go along with the recipes and hopefully one day I will, but between dancing around our dog and 3 small children, I only have time to cook and then get the food on the table.

Many of my recipes have come from amazing friends and family that where nice enough to share, and I have given them props for it. So if you find something you like please just give props to the appropriate person.

Chicken Salad Pasta



Serves 36 People

12 chicken breast 

1 can of cashews

1 bunch of red grapes halved

3 cups of celery chopped finely

1 cup mayonnaise

1 cup miracle whip

1 tbsp. lemon juice

3 to 4 shakes of curry powder

½ cup of sugar (or to taste)

1/8 to ¼ cup of cream to thin to right consistency


  1. Boil the chicken in 4 cups of water with onion, celery ends, salt and pepper. Cut chicken in bite sized pieces and spread chicken on big piece of tin foil. Season chicken and celery with salt, pepper and onion salt until desired flavor. (This is an important step for the flavor of the salad)
  2. In a separate bowl combine mayonnaise and miracle whip, sugar, and curry powder. Thin with lemon juice and cream. Dump chicken and celery in bowl and chill. Just before serving stir in grapes and cashews.
  3. 2 boxes of bowtie pasta (may need to add more dressing) mix in before chill.
