Recipes from ISBC Women's Retreat, 2012


Once again at this year's ISBC Women's Ministry Retreat, Paul and Sandy Vowell along with Larry and Erika Brammer provided FABULOUS meals for our ladies! Everyone was so impressed with the food that they all wanted the recipes. So here at your request are the chefs' secrets!!!
PAUL VOWELL'S POTATO SALAD
Potato salad - ingredients - potatoes, sweet pickles, sweet pickle juice eggs, mayo, mustard. Cook potatoes and let them cool. Boil eggs. Cut several eggs into slices so that you have pretty yellows cetnered in the whites. These are for the top of the potato salad to make it look pretty. Chop the rest of the eggs into small pieces. Chop pickles into small pieces. In a mixing bowl cut the potatoes and add the eggs, mayo, pickles and mix into the consistency that you desire. Add in small amounts sweet pickle juice until you have sweetened the salad. Then add a small amount of mustard to color the potato salad yellow.
PAUL VOWELL'S CHICKEN SALAD
Chicken Salad - ingredients, chicken, sweet pickles, mayo. Boil chicken until done, after chicken is cool shread it into pieces. Chop pickles into small pieces. In a large bowl mix chicken pickles and mayo. Add mayo slowly until you have the consistency you desire.
