Good Eats Friday

by Candace Sampson

So much to do today. I’m readying my house for 8 extra people this weekend, so I’m going to get this post up lickety split and then head for my kitchen!

First up is this Beef & Veggie Mushroom Sauce over Rice from Ottawa Valley Moms. This is a favourite childhood recipe of Crystal’s.

Mara’s Vinagrette Potato Salad from Be Nice or Leave has me drooling. ‘Nuff said.

Finally this Kasha, Beet & Dill Salad from Jo-Anna at A Pretty Life in the Suburbs a) looks beautiful b) sounds delicious and c) uses my favourite herb dill. It’s a keeper
