Winter Fresh Slaw

For the past few weeks, all I have been craving is coleslaw.  Fresh, crunchy, and so easy to make.  However, I am not a fan of pre-made coleslaw dressing - it just tastes too sweet for me.  So, I like to make my own and control the amount of sugar in it.  But that doesn't mean I don't like some sweetness in my salad.  Pears are a beautiful, crisp, sweet addition to coleslaw.

Orange Dream Salad

In our house, no special meal was complete without some form of fluffy, fruity, Jell-O salad.  We never had any real recipes for these, but we all knew them by color.  Pink salad is made every year, green is an occasional treat, and orange is a new favorite.  Plus, I personally think that all marshmallows should be lit on fire at least once, so I like to torch the ones on top.  This is optional, of course, but the flavor is so incredible!
