Taisen's semi Italian pasta salad Taisen's semi Italian pasta salad
I have seen a lot of different Italian pasta salads, so I decided to try and do one but I couldn't find the one that I wanted to try, so I ended up just buying stuff that I wanted in it. Nobody in my household would try it besides myself and my youngest daughter. She loved this so much that she kept asking for more. The only thing that she picked out of it was the tomatoes. I will definitely do this again, but I think that I might make a few changes just to make it different. The ham for instance, didn't really go with because I had gotten honey ham. I think regular ham would be better. taisen76 -
taisen's macaroni salad taisen's macaroni salad
I am the only one in the house who eats this but my mom did it all the time growing up. I loved it and I always add extra vinegar because I love it so much. when my brother , sister and mom come over for a get together I make this for us all. they take home some everytime. I did this about a week ago and didn't do the boiling of vinegar and sugar. Instead I just added them in and mixed well. Turned out the same. I did add some diced carrots and I really liked it ! taisen76 -

Tofu and Cucumber Salad with Umeboshi-Sesame Dressing Tofu and Cucumber Salad with Umeboshi-Sesame Dressing
I made this when I was out of dressing. It was really good, so I've been relying on it ever since.This is also good with mizuna greens or green bell peppers instead of cucumber.If you leave it standing for too long the tofu will start to exude moisture, so I recommend making it just before you plan to eat it. For 2 servings. Recipe by naganyo cookpad.japan -
Easy cucumber tomato salad Easy cucumber tomato salad
I don't like too tangy of cucumber salad. This salad is just right but I am sure that if it is too tangy you could add more water and if it is not tangy enough just add more vinegar. krg0802 -

Marinated Cucumber Red Onion Salad Marinated Cucumber Red Onion Salad
I think I am addicted to this as well as other salads. So easy to make, healthy as well. In this photo you will see bits of finely shredded cheese. Ooops, I was making broccoli salad also and accidentally put the cheese, flax seed, sliced cherry tomatoes, and red beans in my onion and cucumber salad. That will teach me, to either keep the two recipes far apart, or only make one at a time 😊. This is my own amount of ingredients. Candis Brooks
