CEVICHE! ~ Costa Rican StyleMy buddy, Ed, of Puerto Rican descent, spent his time in the Air Force in Central and South America. Ed's favorite dish: ceviche! He tells endless tales of trying ceviche, which is seafoods 'cooked' in nothing but citrus juice.

My Dry RubIts that time of year when the barbecue hits the grills & smokers and so I thought I'd post my favorite dry rub recipe. I only use this rub & a variation of it on pork products and It is well- liked. Remember that you want to wash & pat your meats dry before you apply a rub, then add rub to one side, wait about 10 minutes, then… |

Chicken Teriyaki Stir FryThis recipe was featured in "30 Minute Meals" (Rachael Ray Magazine 6/15) and we agreed it's a keeper. I didn't meet the half hour timeline though, because while the cooking is fast, there's measuring and chopping to accomplish. Nevertheless I think you'll enjoy serving this healthy and satisfying stir fry. Note: Beef or pork would… |

Mexican Pozole I (Posole)A hominy stew with pork or chicken, this soup can usually be found where Mexican food is popular. Has a nice “heat” to it, and as with most stews, flavors enhance next day. This recipe is based on one from the Las Palmas website and requires about 1 hour of cooking. A second version of posole is posted (see "Useful Links" below.) |

Chow-Chow RelishFall's green tomatoes are a perfect base for a batch of chow-chow. This pickled relish or condiment is lip-smacking good on hotdogs, hamburgers, fish, poultry, beans - oh, just everything! This version is a fusion of a friend's recipe and several others I compared it to, and I really like the results! A stash of 6 pints or 12… |

Corned Beef and Vegetable SoupFor a change from sandwiches, use the last gasp of the corned beef to make soup! The leftover broth from simmering the meat forms the base of the soup, and fresh chopped vegetables plus seasonings revive it for a command performance. |

Low Calorie and Delish, Coq au VinThis is a wonderful low calorie and low fat version of the French classic chicken dish. The French pronunciation is kɔk o vɛ̃. It’s so easy and straightforward. I’ve served it many times and everyone loves it. My version uses white wine instead of red wine, which creates a lighter tasting sauce and is cooked on the stove top instead… |

Las Vegas Recipe Guru Summerlin Turkey and Roasted VegetablesThis makes for a more healthy and unique approach to a turkey meal anytime. Breaded stuffing of course could be added as a side, but there is no need and if served without that condiment, it won’t be missed. A good cranberry wine goes well with… |

Turkey Lasagna with Spinach and MushroomsRed, green and white, the perfect Italian flag colors, make this lasagna as pretty as it is delicious. It’s a pleaser at potlucks, or makes a generous amount for the family, with leftovers. A nice dish to prepare the night before, and pop in oven next day. |
