Time for us to share another delicious Ridgecrest recipe. (How did you like the chocolate waffles by the way?) Now that summer is upon us, it’s time to be thinking about fun stuff like Sunday afternoon cookouts and utilizing all those great vegetables from your garden. Named after the employee who created this salad back in the 90′s, Helen’s Salad is a great option for those summer BBQ’s by the pool. Try it out and let us know what you think!
