My adventures of trying new recipes

Tonight I made two new recipes.

First for dinner I made Creamy Swiss Chard. I had never heard of Swiss Chard, it was one of our produce items from Grasshoppers (CSA). I recommend this recipe http://www.recipezaar.com/recipe/Creamy-Swiss-Chard-Pasta-57123 if you would like to try the Swiss Chard. My recommendations would be to not use the leafy part of the chard, it was pretty bitter. Justin did not care much for it and ended up going to McDonald's I on the other hand think that it is a really good Summer pasta dish.

My second recipe was my first attempt to make home made Buttermilk Ranch Dressing. YUMMO!! I kinda combined these two recipes.

It turned out so good I want to put it on everything. Justin even liked it.  I think I will be making ranch dressing from now on. It was cost effective and tastes so fresh.
