Taste of Home

Humidity is high and temps will be hovering around 90 again today, what can you make for dinner that won't require turning the stove or oven on adding heat to the home.  This delicious salad from Taste of Home should do the trick.  It's both cool and healthy!

After a long day at work isn't it nice to come home to the smell of dinner cooking?  All you have to do is whip up a salad, cut the bread and set the table with this easy Root Beer BBQ Rib recipe from Taste of Home.  I know, I was surprised to hear I could cook with root beer too, but it doesn't taste like root, or beer.  Instead, it gives the ribs a savory sweetness you and your family will love!

It's the time of year that fruits and vegetables are in abundance.  Soon, root veggies will be harvested and then we'll run right into pumpkins and gourdes, but I'm getting w a y ahead of myself.  The main ingredient for this Taste of Home recipe can be purchased fresh (along with a lot of other goodies) at the Superior Downtown Farmer's Market today where B105 will be broadcasting live.

Wanna WOW your picnic guests this 4th of July?  It's easy A N D edible with Taste of Home's Flag Cake. Picnics are a staple of the Independence Day celebration and this make-a-head cake will allow you time to work on the rest of the food for the picnic!  Oh, and just in case it rains, I've included a bonus Fourth of July Pizza Recipe too.

Remember Pop Rocks Candy?  My first taste of Pop Rocks was in the 70's.  It was like carbonated candy that caused your tongue to tingle.  We thought it was SO cool to open our mouths while it was dissolving and hear the popping noises.  I was excited when I had the chance to introduce my daughter to the candy when she was younger.  Now, you can incorporate the fizzy, popping candy into a float for

If you're like me you've used red, white and blue candles, flowers and just about everything else that color to decorate your 4th of July picnic table.  These faux firecrackers from Taste of Home are darling and you can have some family fun BEFORE the holiday making them.  You'll be the one-upper this year for SURE!

The warm weather really makes you want to roll the barbecue grill out to grill up your favorites.  Add a pasta salad, some chips and you've got a picnic. End that meal on an easy high note with Taste of Home.  My mom was always good at making the strawberry part but the shortcake she used was the pre-packaged kind from the grocery store.  The kind you could keep in a bomb shelter for years because

It's a new spin on the same old corn on the cob.  Don't get me wrong, I love butter, salt and pepper on my corn on the cob too.  But, at your next BBQ that required some impressive moves to knock someone's socks off, serve Taste of Home's Parmesan Corn on the Cob.  It looks and tastes like you put a lot of work into to....but, you didn't!

Fresh, grilled and a healthy alternative to a burger on the grill.  It's grilled fajitas from Taste of Home!  The marinade makes it SO tasty, that coupled with the fresh garden veggies will make this a hit while you enjoy the summer weather!

I am not a fish fan, especially Salmon.  I wish I was because the way it's describe sometimes makes it sound delicious.  Cooked on a wood plank, maple glazed, Teriyaki?  I DO like the salmon spread they serve on pita bread at Famous Dave's though...
