Taco Salad
The basics: A can of black beans and salad greens, spinach is our favorite choice.
Add any or all of the following: Jalapenos peppers, chopped onions, chopped green peppers, grated jack cheese, black olives, chopped cilantro, cooked ground beef.
The dressing: mix equal parts salsa and plain yogurt.
Toss everything together and serve with corn chips.
Sweet Peas and pasta with goat cheese
The basics: Frozen peas, pasta, goat cheese, chopped fresh mint or basil, olive oil and chopped garlic.
Optional Additions: Chicken or Shrimp, lemon zest
Cook pasta. In a large sauté pan, add 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil, chopped garlic (3-5 cloves) and chicken or shrimp (optional). Cook over medium heat until done, be sure not to brown the garlic. Add peas and cook for about 2 minutes. Toss with cooked pasta. Add goat cheese and chopped fresh mint or basil, more olive oil if desired and give a quick stir.
Serve with a salad.
Otto’s Quick Ham and Red Cabbage Dinner
The basics: Oscar’s Smokehouse bacon, a couple of thick slices of ham from the deli, horseradish and a jar of red cabbage.
Fry up the bacon, crumple it into the red cabbage and cook over medium heat. In a frying pan, quickly heat the ham. Spread horseradish on the ham and serve with the cabbage.
Goes great with Pierogies (in our freezer section). Don’t forget the sour cream!

Maya Kaimal Curries
Get a chicken breast either uncooked or pre-cooked (look in the deli or front freezer), a few vegetables (fresh or frozen), chop everything up, throw it in a skillet, add Maya Kamal Curry Sauce and cook until done. Serve over rice.
Turkey Dinner
No need to wait for Thanksgiving to get your turkey fix. Ask the deli to cut a couple of extra thick slices of our in-house roasted turkey; grab some stuffing mix, cranberry sauce and Bruce’s Candied Yams and you can have a Thanksgiving feast any time of the year!
Pizza and a Salad
We have two ways to whip together a delicious pizza:
One: Frozen pizza dough (front freezer). If you have time to thaw the dough, this is the way to go, better (and much cheaper) than take out.
Two: Rustic Crust: Organic Pizza Originale (bread aisle). This pizza goes from oven to table in ten minutes flat.
Stop by the deli for fresh mozzarella and interesting toppings, like roasted tomatoes, artichoke hearts and prosciutto. Add some Contadina Pizza Sauce (middle aisle) or our made-in-house bruschetta (front refrigerator). Pick up some salad greens and a bottle of dressing and you’re done!
Shrimp Jambalaya
Take some shrimp (front freezer) and a box of Zatarain’s Jambalaya Mix (middle aisle). Follow the directions on the box and your Cajun dinner is served.
Thai Beef Salad
Have the deli slice a couple slices of 1-inch thick pieces of roast beef. Cut the slices into strips and add to a large bowl. Add whatever salad greens you like and some salad vegetables like carrots, radishes and red peppers. Toss with Newman’s Own Sesame Ginger Salad Dressing or San-J Thai Peanut Sauce. Easy, delicious and healthy, especially if you use spinach!
