I had been adding recipes for a while to a new cookbook so I could find them when I wanted to cook them. In the electronic age, a digital version seems to make more sense, since I can add, amend, advise, adjust, delete, and reconsider as often as I want to and you can access them if and when you please. I've included the recipes from both my original cookbook which many of you have, and additional accumulated recipes that never got published. This isn’t the latest thing or nouvelle cuisine. These recipes are comfort food, good memories, treasured family recipes, and occasional treats as well as many healthier recipes I've grown to like in recent years. I encourage you to add comments, pictures, and favorite recipes to make this a real family cooking spot. It's the next best thing to sharing a meal.

Lively Cafe Bean Salad

1 can Black beans
1 can Garbanzo beans
1 can Shoepeg corn
2 cups steamed edamame
1 bunch green onions, sliced
1/2 cup diced red pepper
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 bunch fresh Cilantro, chopped (or Basil)

Dressing:

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup oil 
Salt and pepper to taste

Lively Cafe at St. John’s Episcopal Church across the street from my office is where I usually ate lunch when I was working.  This bean salad was usually my choice for a side with whatever I ordered.
