German Meatballs and Sauerkraut by Salad Foodie

I have never thought to serve meatballs on sauerkraut until I tasted this. Wow, forget about meatballs and spaghetti ~ this is delish! Perfect for anytime, and especially for Octoberfest.

Tilapia with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle Rice by Salad Foodie

This tops my favorites of ways to prepare Tilapia. The recipe was one of the winners a few years ago in a contest sponsored by the USA Rice Federation. Using prepared jars of red roasted peppers and chipotle salsa cuts down on the preparation, but certainly not the taste of this snappy Spanish entree. (See "Useful Links" below for…

Marinated Fillet Steak & Creamed Sweet Potato by Fleurs Food

A marinated fillet steak is definately on my desert island menu. Whenever I go home, one of my biggest treats is when my dad cooks a perfect steak, accompanied with good but simple vegetables.

Starting with a recipe that won a contest sponsored by the USA Rice Federation, I took the liberty to substitute chicken for the original recipe’s fish (see “Useful Links” below for the Tilapia version.) Using prepared jars of red roasted peppers and chipotle salsa cuts down on the preparation, but certainly not the taste of this…

Polenta Squares with Gorgonzola - Crostoni al Gorgonzola by Evelyn Scott

Fried polenta is a great treat, a snacking food of the sort one can go to a friggitoria and buy a cone of -- the frier takes a sheet of yellow butcher's paper, rolls it into a cone, and fills it with squares of polenta. But polenta is also a nice accompaniment to other fried foods at table, and is a perfect base for toppings of…

Pancakes with full sun by Nollian

Delicious pancakes. Dough when lifting will be doubled, so take a large bowl. I have not calculated, when the dough is rising for the second time - ran away.
