Hi and welcome to our website!
When I think of old fashion cold plates I think about my childhood, ever Sunday supper this was the meal we enjoyed and remembered.
We would have a plate of delicious homemade salads with leftover stuffing and salt beef, cold chicken and ham. Plus homemade cold salads!
My mom would make potato salads from the leftover potato from our Jiggs dinner it would have the flavours from all the vegetables and salt beef. Mmmmm So Good!
Of course you can’t go wrong with a macaroni salad we would have that as will, I don’t have it in this video but super easy to make, recipe posted below.

Cold plate suppers is an old time meal that I’m sure everyone that lived in Newfoundland or is from Newfoundland and Labrador have had this meal more then once in a life time.
We would also have with this cold plate a jello salad, corn salad or whatever your mom would make to dress up the plate. Bread roll with margarine ” butter” and of course a piece of old Chedder cheese.
I’m sure there are many different salads that was made, like a plain white potato salad.
Also from dessert we would have homemade custard and jello.

I have got a lot of requests for homemade cold plates over the years!
I hope you enjoy making these salads and I hope they bought back many fond memories of your childhood and growing up here in Newfoundland and Labrador or even visiting and having our traditional meals….
