Stews have been around for many years, in many nations with such diverse recipes. All types of meats are used in what some call stew.

Tilapia with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle Rice

Tilapia with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle Rice by Salad Foodie

This tops my favorites of ways to prepare Tilapia. The recipe was one of the winners a few years ago in a contest sponsored by the USA Rice Federation. Using prepared jars of red roasted peppers and chipotle salsa cuts down on the preparation, but certainly not the taste of this snappy Spanish entree. (See "Useful Links" below for…

Bacon Wrapped Lamb

Bacon Wrapped Lamb by Patti Fisher

It came out great, especially adding our bacon square. Our first ingredient in our cooking is imagination, but…

Chicken Tender Rollups with Bacon Wrap

Chicken Tender Rollups with Bacon Wrap by Salad Foodie

The basic version of this recipe abounds on the Internet, using boneless chicken breasts and gouda cheese. I tweaked it to use what I had on hand, and that was chicken tenders. The resulting rollups are smaller, almost luncheon size, and you can use the cheese you prefer if no gouda's available - Swiss, cheddar, jack, mozzarella.…

It’s amazing how many recipe requests we get for macaroni & cheese. That’s fine with us, it’s quick, easy and has unlimited variations.
