Creamy Lentil and Broccoli SoupThis is a creamy, flavorful, and incredibly healthy soup. The next time you're in the mood for split pea soup (also very healthy), try this instead. It has a wonderful body and a great hearty flavor. If you haven't had sumac before as a seasoning, this is a great dish to try it with. Sumac is commonly used in the middle east to… |

Asian Rib Eye Over Mixed Greens with Ginger DressingI loved the combination of the flavorful rib eye and mushrooms over the truly delicious Asian flavored greens. You'll be using the salad dressing recipe again I'd wager, with or without the rib eye. This would make a great dish for a BBQ party or just for a delicious and casual summer dinner. We had this at my father in law's in… |

Ginger Sesame SalmonThis is an outstanding asian-flavored salmon. It's a bit more interesting than your typical teriyaki salmon. Think of it as teriyaki salmon with a kick! I'm a huge fan of grilled salmon and I don't think it gets much better than this. |

Sumptuous Georgian Lamb StewOhhhh this was yummy. Really, if you are at least tolerant of lamb, you should try this. And if you love lamb like I do, you are in for a huge treat. I could not get enough of the sauce in this stew. I love how the Georgian stews often have you blend up huge amounts of cilantro and basil and toss them in. It gives the stew an… |

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. |

Ribeye Steaks BordelaiseWhen you're in the mood for grilled steak, but want to dress it up a little and serve it with a wonderful bottle of Cabernet or Bordeaux, this is a great French standby. We like to serve this over mashed potatoes with some sort of dark leafy green. In this case we served it with Kale sauteed with bacon and cashews. It was awesome! |

Deep Green Lentil Soup with Caramelized OnionsThis rich collection of greens, lentils, cumin and coriander makes a. hearty Fall or Winter soup with layers of flavor. Both French green lentils and more commonly available brown lentils are delicious in this soup. The French green lentils hold their shape better when cooked, while brown lentils may start to break down a bit. Feel… |

New Mexican Red Chile ChickenThis recipe is very similar to the Southwestern Green Chile chicken I posted, but uses flavorful dried New Mexico chiles instead of fresh green chiles. Personally, I liked this version slightly better, but it was close. A mix of the two is ideal. I found ground New Mexican chile at the Safeway near us in part of the spice section… |

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… |
