Thank you for the pie recipe!

Side dishes are always interesting to make.
This year I am making a nice banana salad.
So simple;
Cut bananas in to wheels.

Add strawberry flavoured yogurt and mix carefully.
Make just before serving to avoid blackening of the fruit.

Also,
My family likes a potato salad, so I am making some this year as a side item, and for sweets, here is a very special recipe for you to try;

Granny’s sweet dumpling pudding
