It would be great if when you search for a specific recipe you have the option of seeing the entire menu that was featured with the recipe. I remember watching this show with the sweet and spicy slaw but I can't remember what the rest of the menu was.....just an idea. Thanks and keep on cooking!

Paula, The sweet and spicy slaw is fabulous; I watched you and your son put it together on TV. I too, use the pepper jelly on and in the cream cheese for a nice spread. I made a batch of pepper jelly over the summer, and now I know how I will use it up. Thanks for your warmth, creativity and "outstanding" recipes. This one gets 5 stars!!

This dish is amazing... The only thing i did differently was to throw in some slivered almonds instead of the pumpkin seeds.... smile
