1 plain bagel
½ c. shredded ham
½ c. shredded cheese (your preference)
2 Tbsp. Mayo
These ingredients may not be perfect but they are close. All you do is mix the ham, cheese, and mayo…as if making a tuna sandwich. Then you spread onto bagel.

Welcome to our Recipe Swap!
If anyone would like to join this blog as a contributor, just let me know and I will add you as an author. The only thing we ask is that you share your recipes with us! We may start monthly themes later on down the line, if more people show an interest, but at this point, please feel free to post any recipe you like, whenever you like.
~If you have a photo of the dish, please post it along with the recipe, since it is always nicer to see a picture. Please post it at the medium size so we can keep all the pictures the same size.
~And please tag the recipes into one of the categories listed. As you decide on which category to put them in, think of how you would search for it in a cookbook. As administrator, I may occasionally go through the recipes and categories and edit them for easier searching as things go along, so don't feel offended if I change some things around.
~If you try a recipe, feel free to comment on the recipe and let us know what you thought!
~Finally, please write a little something about yourself. I will post everyones profile here, so that we can get to know those we may not be familiar with.
Thank you to those who have already jumped in and added recipes. I am excited to see what everyone is cooking!

1 pkg orange-flavored unsweetened powdered drink mix
2 c. sugar
1-2 qts. Ginger- ale

Creepy Crawly Ice
-This will be sure to get some laughs-
Place a plastic spider or bug in each individual square of an ice cube tray. Fill with water and freeze. Serve as you would ice in your favorite Halloween beverage. Another idea is a rubber or plastic snake in a gelatin mold filled with water. Freeze and float in a punch bowl. (Could also do gummy worms.)

Tuna Triangles
1 can tuna fish (or canned/cooked chicken), well drained and flaked
½ cup shredded cheese (I like using mozzarella, but you can use whatever you want to)
1 tbsp ranch dressing (or enough to moisten as desired)
1 can (8oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
Combine tuna, cheese, and dressing. If desired, up to ¼ cup chopped peppers, onion, celery, and/or olives may be added to the tuna filling. Separate crescent dough into four rectangles. On an un-greased baking sheet, press each rectangle to about 4"x 8". Cut each rectangle in half to form 8 squares. Mound tuna mixture on a diagonal half of each square, leaving a ½" border around the filling. Fold dough squares in half to form triangles, press edges with fork to seal, and cut a slit in top. Bake at 375ยบ for 14-16 minutes until golden brown.
