Ma Po Tofu, a classic dish from the Sichuan province of China, inspired this recipe. The original is made with soft tofu and ground pork or beef with plenty of heat from dried chile peppers and Sichuan peppercorns. Portobello mushrooms stand in for the meat in our vegetarian version and convenient jarred chile-garlic sauce gives it plenty of kick. Serve with brown rice.

We use crisp radishes for a bit of crunch and spiciness in this Crab Salad Sandwich. You can also use chopped fennel, celery, thinly sliced fresh apple, or matchsticks of jicama as alternatives.

The pumpkin made them very moist and puff up into a perfect pancake. The spice blend came out perfect and were amazing served up with some fresh whip cream!
It is a sweet caramelly teriyaki glaze.The skillet gave it a golden brown crust along the outside. It thickened up and literally just glazed the chicken.
