My husband's grandmother came from Germany, so I was inspired to keep the German cooking traditions going in our family. This skillet dinner is one of the dishes she made. --Lucy Bradshaw New Bern, North Carolina
Delicious garlic and fresh tomato sauce cover tender pork cutlets. Serve with crusty bread, a leafy salad, and maybe a side of buttered pasta with a little of the sauce on top. Terrific and fast.
Here's a spicy Texas favorite. Black-eyed peas and black beans are marinated in a fiery, flavorful mixture. This is great with tortilla chips or bread -- and plenty of cold iced tea!
Eye of round roast is stuffed with chorizo and marinated in a Cuban-inspired blend of citrus juices, garlic, and oregano, then slowly cooked until tender.
I keep my kitchen stocked with fruits and vegetables. Potatoes are great to have on hand because they're nutritious and low in fat. Oregano seasons this side dish dressed up with onions, peppers and tomatoes. --Connie Thomas of Jensen, Utah
Shredded carrot adds sweetness and color to this rice pilaf recipe. Use fresh mushrooms, such as shiitake, chanterelle, or porcini, for a more exotic dish.
This is a wonderful way to prepare root vegetables. This savory combination of potatoes, rutabagas, carrots, parsnips and sweet potatoes keeps people going back for seconds!
A wonderful flank steak on the grill I invented that friends just love! My girls think this is great, and it doesn't take long to grill. This also works great when sliced and used for fajitas.
