Homemade Grilled Flatbread by John SpottiswoodI 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… |

Apple Crisp – Microwave Quick! by Salad FoodieI haven’t found a quicker apple crisp recipe that tastes as good (or better) than oven-baked. Simple prep and fast cooking make this a perfect dessert when you’re short on time. Plus you can make it year round as the microwave won't heat up the kitchen. |

Pumpkin Praline Muffins by Salad FoodieA crunchy caramel-pecan topping crowns these moist and delicious muffins. Perfect for holiday breakfasts or snacks. I've made these several times but when I made them for this listing photo... I botched up bigtime! They were in the oven beginning to bake when I discovered I left the sugar out of the batter. Urgh------! Tell me if… |

Mashed Potatoes and Cabbage (Colcannon) by Salad FoodieA perfect way to boost nutrition in mashed potatoes, this is a favorite Irish side dish but can certainly appear at Oktoberfest in late September with bratwurst or sauerbraten. I like the subtle crunch and texture cabbage provides, and using red potatoes and leaving the skins on, adds extra color and nutrition. (An optional version… |

Vegan spicy sautéed mushrooms in 10 minutes. by HelenscookingIt is mushroom season, and I wrote a lot about (button) crimini mushrooms lately. Button mushrooms have an excellent amount of selenium, zinc and manganese; all three are great antioxidant minerals. Also daily intake of crimini mushrooms for 1-2 months can reduce levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and TGs. And if you are… |
