Beef Fajita Best Marinade by Amos MillerThis is fast, simple and super delicious! You should have a very hot (very) cast iron griddle or pan to do this right. I preheat the griddle and simultaneously heat a cast iron serving dish so it goes to table with that distinctive 'sizzle'. Be sure to cut the meat, after it has rested, across the grain and as thin as you can. This… |

Simple Himalayan Salt Block Salmon by John SpottiswoodMy wife got me a Himalayan Salt Block to try grilling on this summer. We made our first attempt last night with salmon, trying it two ways. This is the first...a very simple effort and very delicious. My instinct with the salt block is that I am going to enjoy simple recipes the best, since they will allow the flavor of the salt… |

Asian-Style Grilled Black Bass by John SpottiswoodThis fish is simply delicious. The flesh is like butter and the flavor is from heaven. I know that sounds extreme, but it's true. I was in Costco and the fresh fish counter had whole black bass. I'd never made it before, but the woman behind the counter said it is similar to yellowtail (hamachi) which is one of my favorites, so I… |

Grilled Flanken Style Korean Short Ribs (Galbi or Kalbi) by John SpottiswoodI adapted this recipe from one in Bon Appetit and another from Chef John (foodwishes.blogspot.com). Chef John recommended blending an asian pear into the marinade to help tenderize the meat. I didn't have an asian pear, so I substituted a fuji apple and reduced the sugar slightly. I thought the resulting marinade, and ribs, were… |

The avocado salsa is mild and complements the salmon nicely without over powering it. The dish is beautiful and would be good for entertaining, but the meal is also easy enough for a week… |

Ham & Cabbage Hash by Salad FoodieThis is a fast dinner-in-a-skillet recipe, and a good way to use up leftover ham or roast beef. Lots of vegetables make the meat go further and keep calories, fat, sodium and carbs to a reasonable level. A healthy and homey stand-by recipe for breakfast and/or casual dinners. |

Calypso Chicken Salad by Amy Gibson and Janesse BakerDo you like chicken salad? A good chicken salad is creamy, a bit sweet, a bit salty, has some crunch in it and must have really tender chicken. One of my favorite chicken salads was served at a place I used to work and it was mayonnaise based with cashews. Yum - it brings back fond food memories. The reason I am sharing this… |
