One of my favorite things about hot weather is eating cold pasta salad. Cold pasta salad is the perfect dish for hot summer nights. I throw almost anything in with cold pasta and eat it. You can have a complete meal, quickly and with just a few ingredients.

Have you been looking for a dish that is unique, maybe a little something different for your backyard barbecues? Are you tired of the same old baked beans and sour cream chip dip? This recipe is great for outdoor dining. It is crisp, zesty and even a bit spicy. It can be used as a dip for chips or served as a side dish.

Montanan’s love their beer. Why else would Montana be home to so many amazing breweries? Yes, we all have our favorite local beers. You love the taste of your brew so much, wouldn’t you like to enjoy it another way besides just drinking it?

I am usually a traditional cake maker. Traditional to me means that I open a box of Betty Crocker, pour in the water, oil and eggs, mix it and bake it. I have heard of making cakes and other baked good without using eggs or butter, but wasn’t ever able to find a recipe. However, I have finally found one.

I have been hearing people talk about the Paleo diet. I didn’t know what it was, so I finally got curious enough and looked it up. The Paleo diet is eating only natural foods that cavemen, or paleolithic men, would have ate. The main foods eaten with this diet are eggs, fish, vegetables, fruits, nuts and game meat.

I was given a rhubarb plant a few years ago by my mother. The first year I had it it did not produce much fruit, but over the past couple of years, I have gradually been able to harvest some rhubarb. This year, my rhubarb crop seems to be quite exceptional. I have already cut and chopped up enough rhubarb to make a batch of jam and June has just begun.

I’m a coffee lover. Most of the time I enjoy my coffee hot, but on hot spring or summer days, the last thing I want is a hot drink. So in order to satisfy my coffee craving without having to endure the heat, I often mix up a cold version of my favorite coffee drink.

One of my very best friends is famous for making this delicious artichoke dip. It is something everyone begs her to make for family gatherings. After much begging and pleading, she finally relented and gave me the recipe.

If you ever go to the local bakery or drool over the pastries in the local coffee shop while you’re waiting for your latte, then you will love this simple recipe I have put together for you. I came up with this recipe while trying to make zucchini bread. It seems that I had run out of some of the ingredients and so, as a true baker, I improvised.

I love pasta, but during the summer months, I loathe hot pasta dishes. So to satisfy my pasta cravings in these hot months, I’ve created my own cold pasta salad recipe. This is my absolute favorite, but not all of my kids love peppers, so I do get a dirty look or two from a couple of them when I make it, but I don’t care. I love it. Try it and see what you think.

Growing up, I can remember my mom and older brothers making unbake cookies. My brothers and my mom loved to make them because they were quick and easy, and full of chocolate. I had only made them once since becoming a mom, but when I did, my boys loved them.

Do you love cheesecake, but hate the calories? I myself am a cheesecake lover, but don’t eat it as often as I like because of how fattening it is. That, and well, to make a traditional cheesecake, you have to bake it. It takes a lot of time and effort to make a true cheesecake.
