Peanutty Oatmeal CookiesA different take on peanut butter cookies. The oatmeal adds chewiness, and the chopped peanuts add extra crunch. For an over-the-top serving, spread a cookie with a smear of peanut butter and dab of jelly. |

Fresh Corn and Peach SalsaThis salsa makes a great side dish for salmon or chicken. I take a one pound salmon filet, cut it into two pieces. Brush with olive oil and sprinkled with fajita seasoning mix and bake in a 400 degree oven for about 12-15 minutes. Plate the salmon and spoon salsa on the side. Garnish with sprigs of cilantro. |
