Hey everyone, I am really excited to start a new monthly thing here on the blog and the best part is that you can participate too! The first week of every month I will be hosting a monthly guest post blog swap. If want to participate make sure to fill out the form at the end of this post and then you will have your name in for the next months swap. These swaps are great because everyone who fills out the form gets to have someone guest post on their blog as well as have their very own featured guest post! Sounds pretty fun right :)

Well now let me introduce you Katie! She is amazing and her blog is always filled with her amazing travels and beautiful pictures.

Hi, this is Katie from  Lublyou! 

I'm Russian, my husband is American, my blog is about our life in New York City and my adventures in Russian cuisine with an American twist. I'm really happy to be guest posting for Kendra today, and naturally, I decided to share a recipe for one of my favorite Russian salads.  Russian Calamari Salad

Ingredients: 

1 lb calamari 

2 large white onions 

3 hardboiled eggs 

6 tbsp mayonnaise 

Salt and pepper on taste 

Preparation: 

Remove the skin from the calamari, wash inside 

and out, and put it in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes

 (no more, it will get rubbery!). 

Drain calamari, and cut into julienne-style cuts. 

Grate the eggs on a large grater. 

Peel the onions, cut into thin pieces. 

Mix calamari, eggs, onions, mayo, salt, and pepper; stir well. 

Cover the salad bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, 

and let sit in a refrigerator for a couple of hours to get moist. Приятного аппетита! It's Russian for "Bon appetite!" Katie Lublyou
