Pink Beans With Smoked Ham Shanks & KaleThis is a hearty legume dish that is easy to make and stores well in the freezer. We generally eat some type of legume dish weekly. I like to try different combinations to offer variety knowing legumes are a great source of fiber and protein. Any kind of beans will work if you don't want or don't have access to pink beans. Soaking… |

Heinz 59 Sauce/GlazeThis is adapted from a recipe on the back of a bottle of Heinz 57 sauce. The original called for the sauce and honey only. I decided to jazz it up a bit by adding some more ingredients. Hence the name Heinz 59 Sauce. The result works as a different sauce/glaze for almost any kind of protein. I used it on smoked chicken thighs as… |

Mojo-Cuban Citrus Garlic SauceThis is an adaped from a recipe by Steven Raichlen. Mojo is a traditional sauce for Cuban pit-roasted pork and palomilla (a thin steak cut from the round and grilled). It is made with lots of garlic and a sour orange tropical fruit called naranjo agria, or sour orange. In my area sour orange is not available so I used orange and… |

Grilled Tandoori Turkey TenderloinThis is a fun rendition of Tandoori. It is adapted from a recipe in Cuisine At Home seven years ago. Since most people don't have a tandoor; a wood clay oven, similar results can be obtained by grilling the turkey on high heat. Don't be put off by the amount of spices used. Combined with the yogurt and sour cream for the marinade… |

Beef Tenderloin Stroganoff With Dill WeedThis Stroganoff dish is adapted from one my Mom made for the family on special occasions. She got hers from a Spice Islands Cook Book published in 1961. I have modified it significantly. The original used Sirloin steak. I used Beef Tenderloin only because I had some frozen that needed to be used. Any cut of beef will work but… |

Pita & Lavash ChipsThese are quick and easy to make. They go well with Hummus as a snack or appetizer. Serve them along side Middle Eastern dishes to add some crunch to the meal. I used whole wheat from Trader Joe's but if you are able to make your own that would be even better. Using cooking spray to bind spices to the chips makes them low in… |

Chinese Chicken SaladThis is an old recipe. There are countless variations of Chinese Chicken Salad recipes. Though slightly modified from the original we recevied this one is a classic. My wife got the recipe at a pot luck she attended at work over 35 years ago. We ate it frequently when our kids were small. They probably grew weary of eating it so… |

Cottage Cheese Dill BreadWe don't eat bread often. However when the weather begins to change and it starts getting cooler it seems spark me into wanting to make bread. This is a good bread with almost anything. It is great for the Holiday season. It freezes very well. If you are not a fan of strong dill flavor forget this formula. My wife and I both… |

Pork Tenderloin With Red Wine Demi GlazeThis is a simple but elegant entree. Pork tenderloin pounded thin and combined with mushrooms, red wine and demi glaze. The stock is key to this dish. If you don't make your own you should. It makes all the difference and is not that difficult to make. Yes, it is rich. Eat occasionally and serve as a great dinner party entree.… |
