Camarones a la plancha - Shrimp on the griddle by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious mexican shrimp dish that you'll find served in the lovely seaside restaurants along both of Mexico's coast. The wonderful smells of the shrimp, garlic, and onion will fill your house and make everyone's mouths water. I cooked these tonight for Cinco de Mayo and both we and our kids absolutely loved them. I left…

BBQ Pork Tenderloin - Spanish Style

BBQ Pork Tenderloin - Spanish Style by John Spottiswood

This dish is from south-eastern Spain where Moorish influences are still found in many dishes. The combination of middle eastern spices and pork is wonderful. These are often served on kebabs as part of a tapas dish called Pinchos Morunos. You can follow the same directions below, cutting the meat into 1 inch chunks and grilling for…

Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry

Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry by Salad Foodie

This 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…

Grilled Fish Tacos

Grilled Fish Tacos by Salad Foodie

Tangy avocado salsa and grilled fish in a warm tortilla make for a much healthier fish taco than the usual restaurant variety. This recipe is based on one from Bill Phillips Eating for Life, though I had to sub a few ingredients due to what I had on hand. Too cold to grill outdoors, I used the counter top grill. No swordfish or tuna,…

Seared Mahi Mahi w Rainbow Medley

Seared Mahi Mahi w Rainbow Medley by jason kim

For our fish Fridays, we got the kids some mahi-mahi fillets and simply seared them on the stove top. We also included a fresh rainbow medley of diced red and green bell peppers and mangoes for some sweetness, creating a natural sauce/neutralizer for the fish. The great thing about mahi-mahi is that they cook well either baked,…

Gluten Free Quinoa Tabouli

Gluten Free Quinoa Tabouli by JoannE.

*Can't find Red Quinoa no problem - The red quinoa for this recipe because it retains a firmer texture after cooking but traditional quinoa will be just as tasty!

Italian Turnip Greens

Italian Turnip Greens by Carolinaheartstrings

I love me some greens. It doesn’t matter if it’s collards, turnip or what-have-you. Now my dad, who is deceased, used to talk about his Italian mother cooking greens. I only wish I’d asked him just what kind of greens she cooked. So, on a whim instead of using ham with these greens I decided to use some Italian sausage in a nod to…

Caribbean Peas & Rice

Caribbean Peas & Rice by John Spottiswood

This popular dish throughout the Caribbean is similar to red beans and rice, but made with a few more spices and with crowder, pidgeon, or black-eyed peas instead of red beans. If you can't find any of these, though, red beans make a fine substitute. This is great comfort food that is a nice mellow contrast to spicy-sweet Caribbean…

Lite and Fabulous Steak Pizzaiola

Lite and Fabulous Steak Pizzaiola by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

This Italian classic is simply steak topped with a quick cooking, zesty, pizza-like sauce. Sometimes it’s topped with cheese. I’m using very lean top sirloin but if you’d prefer to use flank steak or skirt steak, just reduce the cooking time a bit. Doesn’t matter how you cook your filet, the sauce absolutely makes this dish. The…
