Heres a great low-fat entree thats quick and easy, promises Amy Bauer of Griffith, Indiana. The relish stars tart cucumbers and mandarin oranges over tasty orange roughy. Its turned my family of fish haters into fish lovers overnight, Amy enthuses.
This authentic Mexican recipe I picked up while living in Mexico. It has a spicy, smoky flavor from chipotle peppers. It is perfect for a buffet where people can serve themselves and even better heated up as leftovers the next day! If this is too spicy for you, try using less chipotle peppers.
This easy-to make recipe is very inexpensive. I made it for my boyfriend's family and his mother is Filipino! They loved it! You can really mix in a lot of different ingredients to spice it up or make it your own. Try different Ramen noodle flavors.
Although this is a wonderful way to use leftover carrots and cranberry sauce, I often find myself making it specifically for Thanksgiving dinner. --Mary Ann Gilbert, Cincinnati, Ohio
Cannellini beans, native to Tuscany, work beautifully in this rustic soup because they hold their shape after simmering in the flavorful broth. Serve with a crusty Italian bread, such as ciabatta, and a salad of bitter greens.
A sweet, savory saute of bell pepper, green onion and bean sprouts is tossed with strips of cooked chicken and angel hair pasta, and coated with an exotic blend of peanut butter, soy sauce, chicken broth and fresh ginger.
This tasty side dish is always a big hit when my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter come for dinner or when I'm hosting a shower or party. At Easter, it's a great way to use up hard-cooked eggs! --Carolyn Griffin Macon, Georgia
I love creating new variations on tuna sandwiches. This one is made with basil pesto, and served on rye bread with slices of tomato and leaves of lettuce. I made this for my husband's lunch the other day, and he wanted them again for dinner that night!
