Hearts of Palm Salad with Beets and Blue CheeseAngie Norwood Browne

"I had three kids in three years when I was a 'young married' in my twenties," writes Sheryl Hurd-House of Jupiter, Florida. "That’s when I started cooking and realized I liked it. But I’m having even more fun cooking now that our children are grown and it’s just me and my husband, Garry."

Fresh greens and a variety of colorful veggies add up to a great salad you can throw together in minutes.
