Sunday, August 22. So wrong it's right" Potato Salad. Anyway, that's why I'm renaming this from Peggy's Potato Salad to a more modern "So wrong its right" Potato Salad - because adding butter to any type of salad is so wrong, BUT it tastes soooo right. Makes 5 lbs of potato salad - enough to feed an army. 5 lbs red potatos. 1 medium Vidalia (sweet) onion, diced. 2 celery stalks, sliced. 1/2 green pepper, diced. 4 oz jar pimientos, including juices. 3/4 cup green olives, sliced. 1 tsp Nature's Seasoning.

http://modernswap.blogspot.com/2011/02/chile-rubbed-shrimp-with-avocado-salsa.html
Saturday, February 19. Chile Rubbed Shrimp with Avocado Salsa. This is great served with the Black Beans and Rice. I like cooking it under the broiler, the same way I did for the Shrimp Cocktail. But you can also grill these or saute them with some vegetables. 1 lb large shrimp. 1 tbsp ancho chili powder. 2 garlic cloves, pressed. 1 tsp dried oregano. 1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper. 2 tbsp olive oil. 2 ripe avocados, diced. 1/4 cup diced tomatoes. 2 tbsp sliced scallions (dark green parts only).
