"Easy, elegant one-dish chicken casserole with whole green beans and sherry in a creamy sauce. All you need is a salad, some rolls and a good glass of wine!"
"Goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes and roasted red peppers adorn these quick and easy appetizer pizzas. A drizzle of balsamic vinegar and some fresh basil top them off to make these an outstanding choice for any formal or casual gathering."
"Grab your slow cooker and the ingredients for this wonderful chili and you have a party in the making. Everything goes into the cooker and emerges two hours later as vegetarian chili."
"A hearty breakfast dish that includes hashbrowns, cheese, ham and diced green chilies rolled into flour tortillas. A new favorite for your next brunch or office get together that can be made in advance and reheated easily the next day."
"This Indian dish combines fresh spinach and ricotta in a creamy curry. Use paneer if you can find it! It is absolutely wonderful with basmati rice or naan (Indian flat bread). The key is in the spices, which you can find at an Indian grocery."
"Pork chops rubbed with a pungent seasoning of dried sage, salt and pepper are pan fried in butter until golden brown then simmered in a simple beef bouillon."
"This simple stir-fry has a sweet taste that appeals to teenagers. While broccoli is specified here, it's easy to add whatever vegetables you have available to it. Serve this over rice for a filling meal."
"Our family's favorite. Slightly sweet and spicy with a light non-tomato based baste, that doesn't overpower the delicious falling-off the bone meat. We have also used this recipe on pork shoulders.. Devine!! BBQ sauce is never needed, but if you must, only use your favorite!"
"An exceptional dill flavored, beer batter for deep frying. Fish options include cod, haddock, sea bass, and orange roughy. Suggestions for side dishes are french fries, hush puppies, and ginger coleslaw."
"Kingfish, a.k.a. King Mackerel, is a strong flavored sport fish which pairs well with the zesty flavor of salsa. Make sure to remove all of the dark meat from the fish when you clean it."
"This is a moist fudgy type cake. Sweet but not extremely sweet and makes good use of zucchini! You can frost it with chocolate frosting or cream cheese icing."
"This is a bit more gingery and spicy than the recipe above. But it has it 's sweetness too, honey. Two surprises, jalapeno peppers and slivers of basil added at the last minute."
" You 'll need a food dehydrator for this one, but it just might be worth the purchase. Two dozen cherry tomatoes are cut in half and dried for 12 hours. Very, very easy and delicious."
"Fajitas at home! Chicken briefly steeps in a zesty marinade before a saute with onions and peppers in this faithful rendition of a Mexican favorite. Serve with warm flour tortillas, salsa and sour cream to complete the picture."
"This quick and easy salsa can be made in just a few minutes with a food processor. Green onions instead of white onions give it a nice, mellow flavor to balance the kick of the jalapenos. This recipe also works well with 2-3 habanero peppers instead of the jalapenos. But be sure to remove the seeds and membrane from the habaneros first! Grab a bag of tortilla chips, dip, eat, and enjoy!"
" First the tuna is marinated in a lovely rosemary/white wine/vinaigrette. Then it 's grilled, plied to crisp salad greens with cherry tomatoes, and drizzled with a bit more of the vinaigrette."
"This makes a spicy and healthy version of one of my favorite dishes. Serve with tabbouleh, pita bread and olives for a wonderful feast. Black beans or chickpeas can be substituted for adzuki beans. Adjust hot sauce and garlic to your tastes."
"Garbanzo 's, green beans, chunks of sweet potato and tomato are combined in chicken broth seasoned with thyme, basil and paprika in this soup which can easily be altered to suit a vegetarian diet."
"A yummy pumpkin pie with NO sugar added. If eggs are not part of your diet, substituted 1/2 cup egg substitute for 2 eggs. Originally submitted to ThanksgivingRecipe.com."
