Chili Roasted PotatoesThese are super simple and really tasty. If you like roasted potatoes, but are looking for something a little different, give these a try. I served with grilled flank steak and broiled asparagus. |

Eggplant and Peas StewThis recipe was invented by my good friend Brian Bedrosian. He recommends that you "Should drink red wine while cooking and eating for best results." I haven't tried this one yet...but every other Armenian concoction I've tasted of Brian's has been outstanding! |

Mushrooms with Butter, Garlic and CroutonsThis is a delicious and easy to make mushroom dish. It tastes as good as fancy stuffed mushrooms, but is half the work. My kind of recipe! |

Black Bean and Tomato QuinoaThis is a delicious quinoa recipe that we served with our garlic lime grilled pork chops. This is flavorful enough that you'll want to serve it with a relatively simple grilled dish. It would go wonderfully with grilled fish, chicken, or steak. Or try it with the pork recipe linked below. |

Miner's MushMy French Canadian grandma used to make this for my dad and all his siblings. It has become a Jordan family staple. I like it with the anise, but feel free to adjust the amount or eliminate it all together. Kids generally don't like it with anise. |

Tomato Rice PilafThis originated as a Lebanese dish that my mom always used to make, I tweaked it a bit adding tomatoes and mint and leaving out the meat that it called for. If you're a cheese lover this would be amazing with crumbled French Feta mixed in. |

Chile Rellenos SouffléIf you're craving a chile relleno fix, give this light south-of-the-border layered soufflé a try. I looked at several recipes then came up with my own combination and it fits my need for a guilt-free alternative. To save time use canned whole green chiles, or char your fresh garden ones if desired. One batch makes 4 generous-size… |

Louisiana Cornbread StuffingThis is a pretty spicy stuffing for those looking to add a little kick to their Thanksgiving dinner. It is delicious. I would recommend trying it out with Turkey sometime before Thanksgiving to decide if everyone in your family will like it. It's definitely not your grandmother's stuffing (unless you grew up in Baton Rouge)! |

Homemade Grilled FlatbreadI couldn't find any authentic pita bread or other flat bread at my local grocery store, so I decided to try grilling my own. It turned out to be really fun and not too difficult. And the taste was amazing. The hardest part was rolling out the dough (I doubled the recipe). Fortunately, I was able to do that while watching a playoff… |
