	Cauliflower & Potatoes ~ Indian style by Amos Miller I have never been a really big fan of cauliflower, but I love potatoes and spices. This dish, known as 'Alu Ghobi', has long been a favorite vegetable side dish in my kitchen. It is simple, easy to make and very healthy for you. One seldom finds a cauliflower dish on the average restaurant menu. But you need not be a…	8 votes 4 reviews 13 comments 21525 views
	In-a-Pinch Cranberry Sauce made from Dried Cranberries by Salad Foodie I serve turkey year round but forget to keep canned cranberry sauce on hand; even when I do it's hard to use up the whole can because not everone eats it. Recently the craving for cranberries with roast turkey breast was too strong. I grabbed the Craisin bag from the pantry and experimented making a small amount of cranberry sauce.…	2 votes 1 review 5124 views
	Cumin Rice by Joyce Leung This rice is a delicious mix of cumin and cinnamon. It provides a nice, slightly sweet flavor, that is a perfect complement to any middle eastern dish. The only dishes I would avoid serving this with are sweet dishes with dates, figs, etc. I served it with my Braised Lamb with Beans. It was great!	7 votes 4 reviews 1 comment 20775 views
	Creole Style Butter Beans by John Spottiswood Butter beans (another name for Lima beans) are super healthy and flavorful. I've been looking for a simple and flavorful way to cook these, and after a lot of research I found and adapted this delicious recipe. This is flavorful and hearty enough to make a full meal out of, probably accompanied by a salad or green vegetable and some…	12 votes 3 reviews 8 comments 10514 views
	Easy Persian Rice in a Rice Cooker by John Spottiswood Admittedly, this doesn't capture the crunch outside of the normal method of making persian rice.

	Cooler Corn by Glenn Large gatherings of people who like corn on the cob requires a couple of lobster pots or a wash tub and a lot of boiling water and patience. Not anymore.

	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
	Korean potato side dish by John Spottiswood I always love these sweet and salty braised potatoes when they are served along with kimchi and various other side dishes at korean restaurants. I've always wanted to make them, and grilling Galbi gave me the perfect opportunity. I started with a recipe from maangchi.com and substituted a mix of sugar and mirin for the corn syrup…	3 votes 1 review 1 comment 8995 views

	Corn Bread Chile Rellenos by Patrick Travis This is a cross between corn bread and chile rellenos I pulled together using a cornbread recipe that uses no baking soda or powder so its very dense. I layer whole canned green chilies between layers of cornbread batter, add some cheese, and have a very filling vegetarian main or side dish. I add pure ground chile powder to the…	1 vote 3304 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

	Sweet Zucchini Pickles by Salad Foodie Too many zucchini - what to do? A recipe by Chuck Allen (Palm Springs) caught my eye. Expectations are high from this retired chef, so he takes this recipe as a hostess gift. It is as colorful as it is delicious and lasts about 6 weeks refrigerated. The only thing I added was small cauliflowerettes. What an attractive conversation…	1 vote 3365 views
