Roasted Garlic & White Cheddar Mashed Potatoes by Amos Miller

This is both very flavorful and versatile, pairing with red meat dishes and fowl. If you cannot obtain elephant garlic, just buy the biggest bulbs you can find. Please try to locate white cheddar and avoid the yellow or orange cheddars. While some may be flavorful, we're going for an appearance that will deceive the diner into…

Cranberries with Jezebel Sauce by Amos Miller

If you don't care for the tart tang of cranberries - try this. My dear friend, Gail, serves this dish her way frequently and everyone likes it because it is sweet & spicy and just tangy enough. A great condiment. I've modified Gail's recipe a tad and share it with you. Cranberries will no longer be a Thanksgiving side dish. This…

Mexican Rice Pilaf by myra byanka

Generally, Mexican cooks make this rice with fresh tomatoes, but ever the corner-cutter, I use petite diced, drained.

Sauteed Zucchini with Peppers by Salad Foodie

A basic and quick zucchini side dish - and interesting variation from zucchini-tomato sautees. This dish can go the route you want it. If I want a south of the border twist, I add 1 small seeded and minced jalapeno pepper along with onions, and season with cumin, chili powder and a sprinkle of Queso fresco. For an Italian flair, I add…

Easy Risotto & Gourmet Mushrooms by Amos Miller

Risotto scares too many cooks. It's really a simple dish, though not commonly served at the American dinner table - unless you have some (usually Northern) Italian blood in your family. When done with care, risotto can be a sublime accompaniment to all types of dishes. In fact, you can add all types of things to a risotto to…

Incredible, Skinny Roasted Garlic Mashers by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

This recipe is it! These are one of my favorite ways to make mashed potatoes. And for garlic lovers, a dream come true. When you roast garlic it has a slightly sweet, nutty flavor. They taste just like the rich decadent potatoes you get in a 5 star restaurant only skinnier. The skinny for 1 serving is only 94 calories, 3.6 grams…
