Avocado Pasta by Wendi Taylor

Delicious, creamy (with no milk or cream!), and healthy. Makes a great side dish, or top with grilled chicken for a complete meal. Pairs well with grilled chicken, grilled or baked pork chops, baked or sauteed fish, or boiled shrimp.

Tapioca Mousse by Sherwin Faden

This is a very fluffy, light, but rich tasting dessert. It is best served chilled. The mixture of texture between the slight chewiness of the tapioca and the frothy dissipation of the mousse delights the senses.

Avocado and Feta Salad by Yvette Bedrosian

This recipe works as a guacamole when served with tortilla chips, or can stand alone as a salad, or used as a chutney.

Shrimp Tacos by The Enthusiastic Eater

This light and healthy dinner is easy and quick to make, even midweek! Top the lemon garlic shrimp with whatever you like. I often use shredded cabbage and homemade guacamole but mango, pineapple, or corn salsa would be tasty, too!

Avgolemono (Greek Chicken-Egg Soup) by sf

Tartness varies according to amount and the type of lemon you use. I use Meyer, which isn't as tart as regular grocery store lemons. We usually eat the dark meat of rotisserie chicken in sandwiches, so this is one way I use the white meat. Save the carcass to make chicken stock in your crockpot.

Heavenly Herb Monkey Bread by Kelly Christensen

So delicious you won't want to eat anything else. Seriously.

Scrambled Eggs by Sherwin Faden

Soft scrambled eggs served to perfection. This may appear to be a silly recipe, but I have received so many compliments. The trick is found in three things; low heat, stirring, and patience.

Broccauli Egg Salad by Rene Astudillo

I think we can all do better than that especially when bringing these veggies to a potluck or cocktail party. Next time you do so, make it an appetizing salad by following this very simple recipe. Your party host and…

Morning Crêpes by Sherwin Faden

Very good crepes to eat as is or with your favorite jam, peanut butter, maple syrup, cinnamon sugar. These are not dessert crepes as so they are not too sweet and go easily with anything.

Fresh Cilantro Pesto by Melanie Yunk

Since most of my recipes use only a few sprigs of cilantro, I decided to make a pesto using the rest of the bunch. You can use this sauce on fish, chicken or try it on a pizza or in a taco! Add a little white wine vinegar to make a delicious salad dressing too!

Running Dog Dessert! by kathy gori

Last night my husband chased an elusive Patsy though the fields around the dog park. He had me on the cell phone listening all the way. I was shouting, he was shouting, Patsy was running. Monitoring this whole dog rodeo via my iphone reminded me of watching Avatar last week. I felt as though I was back at the base station trying to…

Black Bean Salsa by J. Gino Genovesi
