in the fridge for awhile.
Do you have a favorite you would be willing to share?

Bean salads... 3 bean, 5 bean, however many beans.
They keep well for a while too.

I am currently enjoying a "corn relish" type of salad, I made it last weekend. Very easy, it has diced cukes, red/green bell peppers, celery, red onion, I used frozen corn...cooked up briefly in a brine of rice vinegar/water/sugar/ salt, for lagniappe I added red pepper flakes, minced garlic, and a wee bit of garam masala...

Very tasty, I just had some mixed with some store - bought macarooni salad, I've used it in tossed salad, with tater salad, also as a relish with some bratwurst...I made two quarts and it is almost gone...it is dandy just by itself...very "clean and healthy", so one can eat a lot...nice spicy and crisp taste...

You can use most anything, this weekend I'll use some zukes, okra, mebbe some termators...red or green cabbage, too...I've a bag of small bruxelles sprouts in the freezer, that might work too...OH and green beans, carrots...

Years ago I would can quarts of this stuff for the winter, always a hit as a Christmas gift. Now I'm older and lazier, the "refrigerator pickle" type of thing as this is works well for me...

This is my favorite
INGREDIENTS
medium size head shredded green cabbage
2 grated carrots
1/2 diced green bell pepper (red good too)
2 tablespoons grated onion

2 cups mayonnaise
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons celery seeds
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix vegetables in a bowl. Mix remaining ingredients in another. Mix
together and toss well. Cover and refrigerate 3-4 hours.


I use the grating blade of the food processor and get a fairly fine cut.
I let it sit for a good half hour. Then I put it in a bowl but squeeze
out much of the water from it.

Mix in the dressing and chill for a few hours or even overnight. I like
to make it the day before.

that sounds interesting. No tomatoes? Does it get watery sitting in
the brine? Do you brine the vegetables for a bit and then drain the
salad before adding the final bit of dressing?

bell pepper, need to get some.

My fav is Gunsmoke Slaw from _Vegetarian_Planet_ by Didi Emmons. But you'd better like heat (or just cut back on the chipotle in it).

Recipe is all over the 'net. (Great cookbook, BTW.)

Not coleslaw but I often have a very basic salad mix of
- tomato
- onion
- cucumber

Additions:
- fresh corn cut off cob
- julienned carrot
- chopped hard boiled egg
- torn up slice of american cheese (mild cheddar)

All this lasts a good while in fridge. Can be eaten plain
or tossed with iceberg lettuce right before a meal.
I always add dressing of choice at meal time.

Most times I don't have a bell pepper so just leave it out. Still good.

I brine the veg for a bit and then remove with a slotted spoon to a container, keeps several weeks in the fridge...this is akin to a "corn relish" type of thing...and one could add some tomato piecces (pulp removed, natch)...or most anything else. Cauliflower might be good...a quick goog for "vegetable relish":

https://www.food.com/search/vegetable+relish

Many receipts for corn relish, here is one to start, simply forego the canning part if you wish - and you could even leave out the corn (I use frozen corn)...:

thanks. I like the whole dressing except for the amount of chipotle
peppers. I have the pepper powdered, that will give me better

I do too I usually slice and wedge the veggies about an hour
before dinner and then splash them with garlic, salt and pepper and
red wine vinegar. To me, this is lip smackin' good.

I could kill for a loco moco right now. Unfortunately, I'll probably have some coffee and a protein bar. So sad.

It's 7 am where you are. A little early for loco moco.

You could have coffee and real food.

Real food as opposed to what? Table decorations.

That's why it's smart to keep a jar of dehy bell pepper in the
cupboard. People buy fresh peppers and in about a week they turn to
mush... dehys keep well for many years... and rehydrate in minutes. I
rarely buy bell peppers, in seasson I have plenty in my garden, during
winter I use dehys.

I mostly eat loco moco for breakfast. I have to admit that it's kind of a gut bomb. I feel just great while eating it though. I think most people will eat a loco moco for lunch. That's fine too. Mostly it's breakfast or lunch fare.

Maybe he uses the mobile Google Groups interface, which doesn't have a
quote feature, apparently. Such brilliant design! Must be popular in
Hawaii!

Americans and especially hawaiians are so ****ing stupid!

Most australians are not very bright either. But you take a goddamn
dutchman, why, he's smarter than gawd. Even the shittiest dutch
butt sniffers are far superior to any other humans. I believe we
have one here.

I don't do recipes, but I make a minimal slaw by salting the cabbage
first for two hours, then rinsing and pressing out extra water. Add
grated carrot and chopped onion. Mayo just enough to set it, rice
wine vinegar or lemon juice, celery salt, and 3-4 TB of buttermilk
and 2-3 TB sugar per half head of cabbage.

Then my secret: either fresh grated horseradish activated with water
then fixed with vinegar a few minutes later and/or horseradish oil
to taste. The horseradish is pronounced in mine. Cabbage,
horseradish,a nd mustard has been suspected of preventing the virus
from reproducing, but I've been doing this since pre-coronavirus.
[And I've never gotten it so it must work! <cough>]

I make a batch about every 4-6 weeks and use it for topping hot dogs
and sausage, especially.

Otherwise the slaw gets too watery, especially if you use
buttermilk. You can make it too dry and the cabbage leathery, so
don't salt too long.
