Roasted almonds with Quinoa, Flax and Sunflower seed

Roasted almonds with Quinoa, Flax and Sunflower seed by John Spottiswood

This is a great, healthy snack that we had up in Park City this week. We all munched happily all week, and got so much more nutrition from it than we would have from most packaged snacks. Super easy to make and beautiful too!

Chili Roasted Potatoes by Nancy Miyasaki

These 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 Stew

Eggplant and Peas Stew by John Spottiswood

This 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 Croutons by Nancy Miyasaki

This 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 Quinoa

Black Bean and Tomato Quinoa by Nancy Miyasaki

This 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 Mush

Miner's Mush by Lyndsey

My 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 Pilaf

Tomato Rice Pilaf by Mary Joseph

This 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 Soufflé

Chile Rellenos Soufflé by Salad Foodie

If 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 Stuffing

Louisiana Cornbread Stuffing by John Spottiswood

This 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)!

Guacamole Tex-Mex by Amos Miller

Super simple - fast - packs just enough punch. It will be the best you ever tasted. Bring on the cervesas, margaritas - and lots of quality tortilla chips! Just like Chipotle - but homemade!
