Cucumber Mint Raita

Cucumber Mint Raita by Bob Vincent

A simple raita that goes well with Indian or spicy grilled food. I served it with Grilled Tandoori Turkey Tenderloin. A link is provided. It can be refrigerated and used later. It actually tastes better to me cold.

Grilled Tandoori Turkey Tenderloin

Grilled Tandoori Turkey Tenderloin by Bob Vincent

This 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 Weed

Beef Tenderloin Stroganoff With Dill Weed by Bob Vincent

This 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…

Applewood Smoked Chicken, Pear and Spinach Salad with Pomegranate Dressing

Applewood Smoked Chicken, Pear and Spinach Salad with Pomegranate Dressing by Bob Vincent

This is a nice main dish salad that serves two amply as a full meal. If you are not into smoking food as I am then grilling the chicken works fine as well. The applewood smoke flavor adds a nice accent taste to the dish however. If you don' have…

Turkish Lamb Kofta With Cherries & Yogurt

Turkish Lamb Kofta With Cherries & Yogurt by Bob Vincent

These little meatballs are a bit different take on traditional Kofta with the use of cherries and veal stock as a sauce. Fortunately in the Bay Area this year the cherry crop was very good; keeping the price per pound within reason. As garnish options I offerred chopped cilantro, feta cheese, yogurt sauce and toasted pignoli…

Chicken Fattoush Salad

Chicken Fattoush Salad by Bob Vincent

This is a different take on traditional Lebanese fattoush salad. I have added some additional ingredients in the form of chicken breasts, red bell pepper and feta cheese that make this a nice salad main course. Toasted whole wheat pita bread adds some crunch and texture and soaks up the citrus dressing. If you're not familar with…

Cherrywood Smoked Salmon with Kiwi Puree

Cherrywood Smoked Salmon with Kiwi Puree by Bob Vincent

This recipe is adapted from one posted on CES by Olivia Kim recently. I have provided a link to Olivia's original recipe below. I changed the Kiwi puree by adding lowfat Greek yogurt to firm it up consistency wise. My wife liked the puree so much she used it on her salad as well. Olivia's original recipe is great if you prefer a…

Baby Spinach Salad with Pecan Smoked Chicken, Mango, Avocado and Orange Vinaigrette

Baby Spinach Salad with Pecan Smoked Chicken, Mango, Avocado and Orange Vinaigrette by Bob Vincent

This is a nice main dish salad that can be prepared ahead of time and assembled at the last minute. It works well on a warm summer day. I served it with pork potstickers and a Hoisin dipping sauce. If you don't have a smoker cooking on the grill…

French du Puy Green Lentils with Chicken Apple Sausage

French du Puy Green Lentils with Chicken Apple Sausage by Bob Vincent

This is a simple but hearty dish. Probably better suited for winter months but I found a good source for French du Puy green lentils in our area. They had been difficult to find heretofore. The store also had some interesting freshly made Chicken Apple Sausage made without chemicals or nitrates. These lentils stay firm when…
