Curry Lentil SoupThis is a surprisingly light and tangy lentil soup. If you are used to thick and heavy lentil soups, this one will surprise you. It's very tasty and was a great complement to the pizza recipe I just put up. This is also adapted from a Greens restaurant recipe. |

Yellow Split Peas with Vegetables (Dal Takari)Wow, this is such a wonderful dish and so easy to cook! The keys to this dish are the yellow lentils, fried potatoes, and cumin seed. You can change out the other vegetables (spinach is a nice addition as it adds to the creaminess of the dish). Make sure you fry the cumin seed and potatoes over sufficiently high heat that the cumin… |

Garlic Ginger Green BeansThese are an excellent, healthy side dish to any grilled meat. I highly recommend them with the Chinese BBQ chicken recipe below, but honestly these would go well with just about anything. Unfortunately these were tapped out long before our chicken, so make more than you think you need. They are great the next day too! |

Amazing Red Lentil and Tomato SoupI never thought I would have a red lentil soup that could match the Turkish red lentil soup that I have been served in Turkish restaurants and that I've learned to make.

Chinese Vegetable SoupI love to throw this recipe together when I am in the mood for a healthy and spicy meal. Just about every time I go to an Asian grocery store I end up picking up the ingredients for this tasty soup.

Japanese Spinach Salad, OhitashiThis is a delicious way to consume large quantities of one of the healthiest foods on the planet...spinach! I came to love this when I lived in Japan from 1991-1992, and make it frequently now because it is so easy, healthful and delicious. Serve this with any Asian dish, or any meat and potatoes. It's not particularly spicy, but… |

Gujarati DalThis is comfort food my mom has made for as long as I've been around. She's been able to hook my kids on it; Dal is a healthy way to get protein into their diet. I serve it with some rice and yogurt. It also holds its flavor really well as a leftover snack. |

Sesame Noodle SaladA cold noodle salad with homemade peanut sauce. Great dish to bring to a summer potluck. Hearty enough to be an entree, but really just a salad. For those who can not go without meat, 4 oz. of cooked chicken can always be added. |

Asian Noodle Sesame SaladThis salad served cold is a wonderful summer meal or side dish. I think it is best when prepared a day or two ahead of time so that the noodles have ample time to marinate and soak up all of the wonderful flavor. |

KHEER WITH COCONUT (RICE PORRIDGE)This is a traditional Indian dessert. Champorado, rice porridge with cocoa, is the Filipino version of this dish. Muhallabia, Arabic rice pudding, is very much similar with this dessert. |
