This is a great dry rub for tri tip. I just made it for a recent party and the tri tip vanished.

Mexican Cole Slaw with Lime and Cilantro by John Spottiswood

Don't you love it when you find a great summer side dish that is healthy and goes with many things, so you know you'll be making it over and over again? That's how I felt when I tasted this fabulous cabbage salad. It is truly delicious and VERY easy. It's adapted from Kalyn's kitchen.

Asian Beef Salad by david spottiswood

This is a spicy, hearty salad tastes great in hot or cold weather. It can be an appetizer, Tapas, or served alone as a light meal. We had it paired with Curried Mussels last night. It has only 195 calories per serving. Feel free to substitute Calamari, Octopus, Shrimp, Chicken or Tofu if you don't eat red meat.
