0:00
- I'm gonna share one more recipe with you,
0:02
and you probably have made this a thousand times,
0:06
but I'm gonna share it anyway with y'all
0:09
because, you know, there may be some new cooks out there
0:12
that has not tried it.
0:14
- [Theresa] And you decided this would be-
0:15
- Yeah. - really good
0:16
for Mother's Day. - And this is
0:19
and it's also out of my classics cookbook.
0:24
So I was chopping up my bacon,
0:30
and, you know, my recommendation,
0:33
if a recipe calls for bacon, use bacon.
0:36
Don't buy those that crumble fake bacon,
0:39
you know, like in your salad dressing area.
0:43
You know, use the real deal,
0:48
All right, so in mine,
0:50
it's gonna have purple onion, tomatoes, cheese,
0:55
a block of cheese that we diced up,
1:03
You know, there's so many different ways you can do this,
1:07
and a diced apple would be delicious in there.
1:11
And before it's done, I may turn around and grab an apple,
1:16
'cause I just like interest in my dishes
1:21
and something that will go with everything else.
1:28
Theresa said Eddie bought it for me.
1:31
"Happy Mother's Day, Paula."
1:33
(Paula giggles) (Theresa laughing)
1:34
Theresa is a gadget nut.
1:40
- [Theresa] And that's wonderful,
1:41
those are wonderful for, like, peanut butter and honey,
1:44
because all you do is... - Yes.
1:47
- And it- - Thank you, Eddie. (laughs)
1:51
- [Theresa] Scrape off the bottom.
1:52
- You know I'm gonna scrape it.
1:55
You know I is gonna scrape it.
2:00
Nobody cheat me out of my mayonnaise. (laughs)
2:08
Let's get that out of the way, Theresa,
2:10
so they can see me, please.
2:12
All right, I've got sugar.
2:27
I've got my purple onion.
2:32
Am I forgetting anything, Theresa?
2:34
- [Theresa] I'm coming over there. Don't you worry.
2:37
That's what I work for, to ensure you.
2:39
- Yeah, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, white vinegar.
2:50
Now I like to do this all separately.
2:54
you see I do my mayonnaise, my vinegar, and my sugar first
2:58
and just stir that up and kind of let it meld together.
3:03
All right, so I actually like to add my broccoli last.
3:09
(spoon scraping) (food squelching)
3:21
You know what else would be good with this, in this?
3:28
Fresh pineapple chunks.
3:33
- Are we not putting nuts in this?
3:35
- [Theresa] Not in this version.
3:36
I know that's a first time for you.
3:38
- I thought I always put nuts in it.
3:40
- [Theresa] You have been known
3:41
to put almonds in a version of it.
3:50
- [Theresa] Not everybody is as nutty as you are.
3:53
- I know that. (giggles)
3:58
- [Theresa] Little play on words.
4:03
But it's important that you be a little nutty
4:05
so you can have a good time.
4:13
Like I said, it takes a minute for that sugar
4:22
All right, so now I'm gonna toss in my bacon.
4:28
I think I'm gonna go ahead and add my broccoli.
4:30
And, you know, you're gonna find this hard to believe,
4:36
but I have a very small mouth inside,
4:47
you know, I can't get the whole piece of broccoli
4:51
so I'm gonna go back and make sure
4:57
that this is like a reasonable bite size.
5:03
So we just stopped the camera for a minute,
5:07
and Theresa and I went back and trimmed up out,
5:11
you know, just the head,
5:15
because that stalk just makes it harder to eat to me.
5:24
And I definitely love the raisins in this
5:28
because it gives you that sweet little bite
5:33
that a good raisin does.
5:37
All right, so Theresa, let's talk about ways
5:40
that give them some ideas out there, friends out there,
5:44
if they wanna vary this recipe up.
5:52
we have about four or five different variations out there.
5:57
I know you love a variation.
6:00
- Okay. - This is how I like it.
6:01
- [Paula] Okay, well, so this is-
6:02
- So this is- - the way Theresa likes-
6:05
- Yes. - broccoli salad.
6:07
- [Theresa] Now the almonds in it
6:08
that we have in one recipe,
6:09
which is pretty much-
6:10
the same with just almonds. - Oh yeah.
6:12
No, I've used walnuts.
6:13
- And then there's Paula.
6:15
Well, apple, a little walnut,
6:18
little pineapple. - Uh-huh.
6:20
- We're going down a lot of roads.
6:21
- All right, you know what?
6:22
I gotta have some nuts, I think.
6:24
I don't think I can do it without nuts.
6:26
Don't you like walnuts?
6:28
What you looking like that for?
6:31
- [Theresa] 'Cause, you know, sometimes I just like
6:33
the good old original.
6:36
- I mean, people could add nuts
6:38
to that. - Okay, okay.
6:39
Well, get your plate and a fork.
6:45
Happy Mother's Day to me.
6:49
And you're the mother of dogs. - This is so good.
6:54
- Mm. - The longer this sits,
7:00
- And this is one of my,
7:01
this truly is one of my favorite salads that we do.
7:05
- It's got a little of everything,
7:07
sweet, crunchy. - Mm-hmm.
7:18
- I hope all the mothers have a wonderful,
7:21
Again, Dad, you can get in the kitchen.
7:24
The only thing is cutting stuff up.
7:30
That's what I look like eating salads. (laughs)
7:35
- So happy Mother's Day.
7:40
- Love and best dishes out there to all you mothers.
7:46
The world would stop dead in its tracks
7:49
if it was not for mothers.
7:53
Send y'all much love.
7:58
