	Homemade Refried Beans by John Spottiswood I'm ashamed to say that though I LOVE refried beans, this is the first time I've ever made them myself. It's just so easy to buy them in a can, or at a mexican restaurant, that I haven't bothered. But this recipe is simple and it is definitely worth the effort in my mind. I figure my kids are the true test, since they aren't that…	7 votes 3 reviews 5 comments 8467 views

	Bulgur Pilaf by Salad Foodie Faster and easier to cook than rice, bulgur is a grain to consider for making pilaf. High in fiber and low in fat makes this side dish a healthful choice.

	Fabulous Pork Tacos by John Spottiswood I made pork tacos for the Superbowl modeled after my favorite taqueria -- a hole in the wall in Playa Del Carmen called El Fogon. I may not have quite matched El Fogon, but these are darn good! I highly recommend them. I served them with Homemade Corn Tortillas (see my recipe) which were great, but they'll taste great with any…	1 vote 1 comment 9538 views
	Sauteed Spinach with Garlic by John Spottiswood This is a delicious and healthy dish that takes 5 minutes to make and goes with almost anything--asian, mediterranean or american. Barefoot Contessa has a similar recipe but adds butter and extra salt. You don't need that, but can add if you like. Fresh spinach is much better than frozen in this dish.	4 votes 1 review 11265 views

And brussel sprout lovers like me will still thoroughly enjoy them! To save time, use a…	4 votes 1 review 9638 views
	Honey-Ginger Glazed Carrots by John Spottiswood This is a standard side dish for us when we're serving an asian-inspired meal. It's also great with any grilled meat. The honey brings out the natural sweetness of the carrots and the ginger gives a bit of spice to balance the sweetness. Orange zest and juice gives a nice acidity to the dish. If you make this, it will likely become…	2 votes 1 review 5926 views
	Buttered Brussels Sprouts by Amanda Natividad Brussels sprouts get a bad rap. Opponents of the vegetable swear it tastes like metal. Or worse, like feet. But when coated with the right vinaigrette, flash fried, or sautéed, Brussels sprouts have a complex richness, an earthy savoriness that fills your mouth. There’s nothing like it.	2 votes 4504 views

	Potatoes With Parsley and Garlic - Pommes Parsillade by John Spottiswood These are the fantastic potatoes you've probably had in a french bistro...the ones that weren't pommes frites (french fries). They are best served immediately when the crisp exterior contrasts so nicely with the warm, soft interior. We served these with a lentils and sausage recipe that I will post shortly. The combination was…	10 votes 7 reviews 3 comments 4696 views
