An explanation of the "Fred-up" copyright. I am in the process of compiling a recipe book and my eBay ID (or one of them) is Fred-up. As this is being compiled for the members of the FH&G discussion board it seemed a good idea to use my ID for the Book.

All the recipes are mine and have all been tried by me or my family which is also where I got a lot of them from.

Minted Tomato Salad

1 1/4 lbs tomatoes, sliced
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp dried mint, or 1 tbsp fresh, chopped
1/8 tsp salt
1 small iceberg or romaine lettuce

Arrange tomato slices on a plate. Combine remaining ingredients, except lettuce, in a jar with a tight fitting lid. Shake vigorously. Pour dressing over tomatoes and toss gently. Serve on a bed of lettuce.

I dont have a name for this side salad. I made it for a theatre companies BBQ and it seemed to go down well.

Salad

2 rashers bacon
2 eggs
1/2 head lettuce, shredded
1 carrot, grated
1 tomato, sliced
1/2 red pepper, sliced
1/2 green pepper, sliced
1 small red onion, sliced into rings (optional)
1 tbsp corn or salad oil
1 to 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
salt and pepper to taste

Place bacon in a large frying pan. Cook over medium heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, shell and chop.
Place lettuce in a salad bowl along with the carrot and tomato. Sprinkle with bacon and eggs and toss.

Mix oil, vinegar and salt and pepper and drizzle over the salad.
