Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with Jim’s Corned Beef and Cabbage!

March 16, 2012

 | 

four-leaf_cloverThis is my mother’s simple recipe and a favorite meal for many on St. Patrick’s Day.

Red Potatoes – unpeeled – 2 per person

Green Cabbage – Cut in quarters – 1 quarter per person

Whole Yellow Onions – 2 per person

Put corned beef and packaged juice in water with 2 bay leaves. Add 1 teaspoon of garlic, a teaspoon of vinegar, black pepper, and 3 medium whole onions. Boil meat 2 hours until real tender (at this point, check spices, i.e. salt, pepper and garlic). You may have to add water as the mixture boils down. Take meat out, put in potatoes one hour before serving. You may want to add additional whole onions (I do). Add cabbage 20 minutes before serving. Put all in and heat to serve.

Enjoy!

Cool Down Your Hot Summer Day with Jim’s Famous Pasta Salad!

July 26, 2011

 | 

pasta saladJim Davidson has dozens of amazing recipes and this one is right up there with the best! It’s definitely Kristen Calhoun’s favorite. She is our Listing and Marketing Coordinator and also one of Jim’s daughters. Jim made a huge batch for a group of us that participated in Relay for Life this year. It was the perfect treat throughout a very hot day. We hope you love it as much as we do! 

JD’s FAMOUS PASTA SALAD

1  Green pepper (Bell) chopped
1  Red pepper chopped
1  Yellow pepper chopped
1  Bunch scallions (green onions) chopped
1  Cup chopped parsley
1  Cup sliced green olives
1  Cup sliced black olives
1  Cup sliced mushrooms (jar)
1  Tablespoon dried oregano
1  Teaspoon dried basil or optional 1 cup fresh chopped basil (which is better)
½  Teaspoon thyme
2  Teaspoon chopped or minced garlic (jar)
½  Cup olive oil
½  Cup Italian dressing
4  1 lb. packages of pasta (I use a mixture of 4 or 5 types of pasta but always include bow tie)

Put all ingredients in a bowl with olive oil and Italian dressing.  Mix well.  Cook pasta until done, but not mushy.  Run cold water over pasta until cool.  Drain pasta and add to mixture then stir.  Use additional Italian dressing to desired consistency.  Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.  Serve cold. I like to serve with my tuna salad.

Enjoy!

Jim
