Handmade Guacamole by Denise Romeo

It wouldn't be "Taco Night" without homemade guacamole. I use copious amounts of cilantro in my recipe. I hope you like it as much as we do!

Salad with Italian Lemon Vinaigrette

Salad with Italian Lemon Vinaigrette by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a great, simple, and tangy salad from Milan that goes great with my Pan-roasted chicken recipe. But try it with anything and I'm sure you'll like it.

This version of guacamole uses corn for some sweet crunch and black olive for some great saltiness. It is requested at every get-together in our family! Thanks Mom!

Spicy Avocados by Emily R

I feel like I am cooking from everyone else’s blogs lately, but I can’t help it! There’s so much great stuff people are posting! I got this recipe from Kika’s blog, The Wandering Cook. It was so simple, for one thing. I threw it together as a quick side for dinner for Matthew and myself last night. It’s fast, easy, and…

Curtido

Curtido by Lynn

This is the essential accompaniment to papusas. Even if you buy papusas, which you can at Whole Foods in the Bay Area, make this from scratch - it's terrific.

Guacamole

Guacamole by Frank Fariello

I spend a lot of time on my blog in wistful remembrances of the delicious fruits and vegetables that I used to enjoy in Italy and, conversely, moaning about the lack of flavor of much of the produce you are likely to find here in the US.

Zucchini Fettuccine al Pesto

Zucchini Fettuccine al Pesto by CrunchyLettuce

Who doesn’t crave pasta? I certainly do. Classic comfort food, right? But no one wants to wake up in the morning with carb face :) The solution: raw zucchini “noodles”! Don’t underestimate the simplicity of this dish. This pesto really is delicious. And the noodle texture is surprisingly similar to regular fettuccine noodles.

Avocado-Olive Dip

Avocado-Olive Dip by Elaine

Avocado pairs well with other green vegetables, but this is a favorite; although there are derivations that I will comment at the end. This is great as a dip or salad dressing, and readily saved for at least a week or more.
