Green Curry Mussel & Sausage StewThis is an easy dish to prepare. It could be served over pasta as well by thickening the sauce with a cornstarch slurry a bit. I used frozen New Zealand green lip mussels. If you can find good fresh mussels by all means use them as they would be better. I used a green curry paste. My wife does not like things too hot so I opted… |

Asian Sloppy Joe SlidersThis is adapted from a recipe that appeared in Cuisine At Home recently. I added red onion and used more cilantro than the original. It is an easy dish to prepare in a hurry for a weeknight meal. The water chestnuts and hoisin sauce add an Asian flair to the standard Sloppy Joe. I served the dish with Myra Byanka's Napa Asian… |

Kristy's Sausage, Potato & Kale SoupThis is adapted from a soup my oldest daughter Kristy makes for her family. It is quite hardy and makes for a quick/easy week night dinner soup. This produces a thin based soup. If you want it a bit thicker add a slurry to it. I served the soup with a crusty bread and a green salad. With a creamy base this calls for a wine… |

Cuttlefish & Clam Fra DiavoloFra diavolo meaning "brother devil" describes this peppery Italian red sauce which originated in the northeastern United States by Italian immigrants I am told. The sauce can be used with most anything: seafood, poultry, beef all work, just use the appropriate broth type. I used cuttlefish fillets and Manila clams. Calamari… |

Green Curry Chicken Over Rice NoodlesThis is nice dish for those who don't want overly spicy curry. I like lots of heat but my wife doesn't. This version seemed to suit her taste. Like they say; happy wife, happy life. Make your own curry paste if you have a combination that works for you. I used a bottled paste from Thai Kitchen. I served this over rice… |

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… |

Smoked Chicken Thighs with Quinoa & Baby Spinach SaladThis a nice main dish salad. I smoked the chicken with apple wood then finished it on the grill with the glaze. If you aren't into smoking like me; grilling or oven roasting works fine. I took the skin off after smoking to reducing fat content a bit. The quinoa can be eaten hot, cold or at room temperature depending on your… |

GuacamoleThis is an easy to make guacamole. Every time I make it I think of my brother. The only way he will eat avocadoes is if it is guacamole. Otherwise he won't touch them. We are fortunate to have great Hass avocadoes all year long here in California. My wife loves avocadoes. Though they are high in fat it is good fat not saturated.… |

Grilled Pork Tenderloin Wtih Green Chile Tomatillo SauceThis is a tasty grilled pork dish. Different cuts of pork will work but we like the tenderloin best as it is lean and tender when grilled. I served the pork with annatto rice, green beans, flautas and guacamole. For a wine we had a 2008 Fenestra Lodi Silvaspoons Vineyards Alvarelhao. This grape is traditionally grown in… |

Green Chile Tomatillo SauceThis is a nice all purpose sauce that can be used in numerous dishes. It is good for enchiladas, as a base for Posole or other Mexican/Southwestern dishes. Adding an equal amount of Mexican Crema or sour cream to the cold sauce makes a thick finishing glaze good for plate presentation. I used canned tomatillos as he fresh at my… |
