Southwestern Green Chile ChickenIn mexico, they keep their chicken moist by grilling it underneath stones. In this recipe I've substituted foil covered bricks for stones. I got the idea from Steven Raichlen in his BBQ USA book. This is a technique used in New Mexico. I thought it added a little moisture. If you have time, it's worth it. And now that I have the… |

Eggplant stuffed with tomato and garlic - Iman BayeldiThe Turkish name for this recipe means "The Priest Fainted". I think the idea is that it tastes so good it made the priest faint.

Hopefully, with a little prodding from others too,… |

Sauteed Kale with Bacon and CashewsThis is a delicious recipe for sauteed Kale. If you are vegetarian, you can leave out the bacon and you will still have a delicious side dish. This also makes a beautiful presentation to accompany any main dish. The green of the kale contrasts beautifully with the golden color of the toasted cashews. |

Amazing Lamb, Squash and Chickpea StewWe served this fantastic dish over Memorial Day weekend with friends up in Point Reyes, California. The days were warm, but the evening turned chilly Saturday night, providing the perfect setting for a warm lamb stew. This stew is a wonderful mix of sweet, salty and spicy, vegetable, legume, and meat. The broth is thin, almost to he… |

Amazing Red Lentil and Tomato SoupI never thought I would have a red lentil soup that could match the Turkish red lentil soup that I have been served in Turkish restaurants and that I've learned to make. So I had low expectations for this Indian spiced version. It completely destroyed my expectations and was absolutely delicious. It was great last night, and I had… |

Tuscan Pork with Mashed Sweet PotatoesSlow cooking the pork with fennel seed gives it a fantastic flavor. The potatoes are good enough to make a dish on their own! |

Quinoa and Fresh Corn with ScallionsThis is a great side dish we served tonight with leftover chicken breast. I've been getting great vegetarian ideas from Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison. I left the cheese out of this one to up the healthiness, and it tasted great without! |

Spottiswood SmoothieI've been eating a smoothie almost every weekday for breakfast for the past 5 years (since I read Eat To Live). I use a vita-mix. This is my all time favorite. |
