Recipe(tried): Carrots and Cauliflower

This might be just a quirk of mine, since not everybody likes cauliflower, but this is a side dish I enjoy. Slice some raw carrots into "coins", break fresh cauliflower into bite-sized florets, and toss them with some Italian dressing. Can't beat that for simple and fresh.

There's a great Fresh Corn Salad posted here at TKL somewhere, basically corn cut from the cob and cooked quickly in a skillet with olive oil and seasonings. That can be prepared ahead and served at room temp, or even refrigerated and reheated with good results. You can change the seasonings to suit your own preferences, tho the original recipe is very good.

For dessert, how about fresh fruit, whipped cream, and whatever kind of cake you like to bake or buy? Find out what your grandchild's favorite fruit is, maybe.

Have fun!
