Roasted Potato Salad

This potato salad is made more flavorful and interesting with roasted potatoes and onions, along with some dried or fresh herbs and a well-seasoned mayonnaise and sour cream dressing. I sometimes add a little diced cooked bacon to this potato salad for extra flavor.

Chicken, Kale, and Pasta Bake With Cheese

I used chopped cooked kale in this casserole, but chard or spinach could also be used. It's a hearty dish, perfect to serve a family any day of the week, or make it for a potluck or large gathering. Casarecce pasta is a slightly twisted, open, tubular shape which holds sauce very well. It worked nicely in this casserole, and I think it would be great in a creamy macaroni and cheese dish as well. You could also use fusilli, campanelle, elbow macaroni, penne, or similar pasta in this dish.
