This is a great fast and simple pasta dish, with a sauce that is lower in fat, yet creamy! If you like artichokes, you'll like this! You can adjust all the seasonings to suit your tastes.
My love of cooking started when I was trying to earn my Girl Scout cooking badge. My family savors the sweet sauce on these skewers. --Joanne Haldeman, Bainbridge, Pennsylvania
Fresh pineapple chunks, now widely available in supermarkets, speed the prep for this relish. Serve with coconut rice (substitute light coconut milk for some of the water to cook it). Round out menu with a romaine lettuce salad tossed with lime dressing.
Empanadas are Mexican-style pastries filled with meat, vegetables, or even dessert. This family-sized version is known as an empanada gallega. It's served in wedges like a stuffed pizza. Pork Carnitas would also be a delicious filling. Leftovers are best reheated in the oven.
Bow tie pasta with roasted red peppers and cream sauce delivers a rich flavor in this quick and easy recipe. Balsamic vinegar helps balance the natural sweetness of the red peppers.
Sauteed sliced artichoke hearts provide a new twist on an old favorite. Cooked black beans are paired up with sauteed artichoke hearts, garlic, and onions, and wrapped up in flour tortillas with shredded sharp Cheddar and diced tomatoes.
