Here Bruce, eat this "Long Life salad."

This is for a large party bowl of salad:
A half pound each of cooked Lentils, black eye peas, Christmas lima beans, and black beans, and quinoua.
One pound of raw chopped kale, and a half pound of chopped plain or curly parsley.

Vinigrette dressing: 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice, after the 2 lemons are zested and added to the bowl. 1/2 cup red or white wine vinegar. 1/2 cup apple, pineapple, grape, or papaya, or other sweet juice or nectar. Salt & pepper to taste.
Whisk until emulsified and pour over the salad and toss.
Feel free to use your imagination if you don't like one of the ingredients.

I posted this recipe in thread back in 2010 for a poster who was looking for a no-egg cookie recipe.  I don't know when my grandmother clipped this recipe, but it has been around as long as I can remember.

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine 1 cup butter or margarine, 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla, 3/4 tsp. salt in a bowl and blend well. Gradually beat in 1 cup sugar. Add 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour, and 1 cup semi-sweet choc. chips or butterscotch chips. Mix well. Press evenly into an ungreased 15"x10"pan. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped nuts over the top. Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool, then break into irregular pieces and drain on paper toweling. Makes about 1 3/4lbs.

I add the nuts to the dough, less messy.
 
Russian Cuisine

OK, I wish there were written recipes for these, but all I can do is point you to this guy's channel. He does include measurements in western units in most descriptions. We'll start with something appropriate for this time of year, ice-cold kompot. Watch his entire cooking playlist and you may have an urge to become an expert in Russian cuisine. Either that or find yourself wanting to play STALKER online all day with your gopnik friends.

I think this recipe could be adapted for a slow cooker very easily.  Adding some cut up potatoes, carrots, and pearl onions would make for a nice all-in-one meal.

I love Tamale Pie and I make it a few times a year, pretty much like this recipe, except I use my own chili powder and other spices.

And for the crust, I divide the cornmeal mush in half and press 1/2 in a 9" square pyrex dish on the bottom and up the sides. Then I pour in the filling and top with cheese, I place the remaining 1/2 of the much on a piece of waxpaper and press into a 9" square, the turn it on to the Tamale Pie, peel off the wax paper, seal the edges and make several vent holes in the top crust and bake as per recipe, 350F for 40 mins.

I also sometimes substitute cubed, cooked chicken breast in place of the ground beef for a change.
