Aunt Fredas Suit Yourself Salad Recipes

AUNT TC'S POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Fill a large stockpot with heavily salted water and the potatoes and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain the potatoes and quarter when cool enough to handle.
• Mix together the relish, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, eggs, onion, bell pepper, 3 cups mayo and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the potatoes and toss until combined. Add additional mayo if the salad looks dry. Sprinkle with smoked paprika. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to eat.

GRANDMA'S 5 CUP CREAMY FRUIT SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the oranges, pineapple, marshmallows, coconut, and sour cream.
• Stir until completely mixed together.
• You can eat it immediately after mixing, but we recommend that you refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before serving so that the sour cream can be sweetened by the fruit.
• Try these other variations: add in chopped walnuts or pecans for an added crunch; to make it sweeter, stir in a little powdered sugar - it will also offset the tartness from the sour cream; add in a small jar of maraschino cherries; add in a can of drained fruit cocktail; add in dried cranberries and a dash of cinnamon; stir in 2 Tablespoons of instant lemon pudding powder for a lemon-taste; use pina colada flavored yogurt in place of the sour cream; top with corn flakes for an added crunch; add diced apples (if you don't like coconut, apples are a great alternative because of the crunch); add grapes (red or green) that have been halved; add diced bananas; add some marshmallow creme in with the sour cream to sweeten it up.
