French Classics Cookbook
This is not only a post about my French Challenge going on, but to also say it’s been a challenging week at home with some personal family issues, hence no cooking blog this week. No new recipes or much cooking going on in this household besides microwaving and such, but we are slowly getting back on track. I hope to get you some new recipes after we get over this bump in the road of life.
Now, I present to you three dishes from the third chapter of my French cookbook. I had challenged myself to make at least one dish from each chapter, and this chapter is Vegetables and Sides. I found all the vegetable recipes to be quite simple, and one of them only had two ingredients so I wasn’t much challenged by that! So I picked three of the salads that at least expanded my horizons. Which is a nice change of pace from the Cassoulet dish I made a few weeks ago, which stretched me for sure!
Please comment which dish you’d like me to make for my next challenge by the end of Sunday, May 18. I found the longer voting times really didn’t increase the votes, so let’s just get it over with, huh? Here are the choices:
Dill and Caper Potato Salad
Dill and Caper Potato Salad
Salade Nicoise
Salade Nicoise
Warm Lentil and Chorizo Salad
Warm Lentil and Chorizo Salad
You can comment on both Facebook or down below in the comments. Thank you so much for your help!

Kathryn all 3 of them look delightful. If I had to pick for only one of them I would vote for the Warm Lentil and Chorizo Salad probably because of the cooler weather we have right now. I did enjoy reading about all three of them. I hope the bump in the road gets worked out. We all encounter them from time to time. Take all the time you need. I will be here waiting for you. My peace to your family. ❤ Hazel

OK my foodie friends, I’ve dredged up my French Challenge #3 post because way back I ended up in a tie and then life got busy and then, well, you know. So while we are still in limbo from closing on a house, I have a perfectly good (but small) kitchen to cook in now. I’m reviving this post and starting the count all over. Help me out! Which one of these recipes should I make for the the French salad??? Please comment on this repost instead of the original and then I can start a new count. Many thanks!

Thank you Gerlinde! It appears the lentil chorizo salad is the favored based on my Facebook posts. But that doesn’t mean I won’t make it one day!
