Paula Mohr's Potato Salad

By -

We just had this potato salad and liked it quite a bit.

Ingredients

12 potatoes
Lawry's seasoned salt
16 Green onions, sliced
2 Cups small curd cottage cheese
2 cups mayonnaise

Optional add-ins: cucumber, celery, water chestnuts, pickles, olives... (we just had cucumbers in the one we tried)

Boil, drain, cool and dice potatoes. Divide in three (salad is arranged in 3 layers).

1st layer: Mix together salt, pepper & Lawrey's seasoned salt (all to personal taste), green onion & 1/3 potatoes.

2nd layer: Mix 1/3 potatoes, 2 cups cottage cheese and add on top of 1st layer.

3rd layer: Mix remaining 1/3 of potatoes with mayo and add as last layer.

Let set 6-8 hours or longer in a fridge. Then mix all together. You can add the add-ins either now or in the first stages, up to you.

Grapefruit Tiramisu

By jeff and alli -
 This ended up being a hit with the family and the missionaries.  I want to tweak the cocoa powder.  Sometimes you would kind of breath it in, which wasn't great, but the flavor of it was fine. I'm going to decrease the cocoa powder by a tad and see how that goes. I also want to try using coconut on top instead of cocoa powder.  Ingredients : 3 large eggs, separated (just using the yolks - save whites for later) 1/3 cup sugar + 1 tablespoon of sugar 1 cup plus 2 Tablespoons mascarpone 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste 2 grapefruits, finely grated zest and 1 - 1.5 cups juice 1.5 cups of whipping cream 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1 package of ladyfinger cookies (we used 24.  some people used 16, some 30) 1 Tablespoon cocoa powder for dusting Directions : 1. Have a 1 quart or larger dish at the ready. 2. Put the egg yolks and 1/3 cups sugar into the top of a double boiler. Whisk over medium high heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is 165 degrees. Remove from...
