| Cashew Recipes and Cooking Tips |
Thu, 23 May 2013 00:00:39 +00002013-05-23T00:00:39Z |

Seems like we've always enjoyed them, but widespread cultivation of cashews is a twentieth century innovation. Long a favorite in South American, Indian, and Asian cuisines, the rest of the world is finally catching on to the pleasure of cashews in savory dishes. Try Curried Beef Gratin, Peanut Butter Mud Bars, Chocolate Nut Banana Cream Cake, or one of the many other cashew recipes.

| Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake Recipe |
Tue, 21 May 2013 00:00:58 +00002013-05-21T00:00:58Z |

Take the tangy flavor of rhubarb and put it into an upside-down cake for a winning combination that steps away from traditional rhubarb pie or pineapple upside-down cake. Caramelized pecans give added crunch and flair. Best of all, this stunning dessert is easy to make, since it begins with a cake mix.

| Homemade Olive Tapenade Recipe |
Sun, 19 May 2013 00:00:38 +00002013-05-19T00:00:38Z |

If you're a foodie in New Orleans, you must try the muffaletta sandwich. The key ingredient in a muffaletta that sets it apart is the olive tapenade spread, which is made with olives, capers, anchovies, and lemon juice. Don't skip the anchovies. You won't know they're in there when you taste the final result. Tapenade is widely available in markets, but it is so easy to make fresh at home. Try it on your favorite sandwich, panini, or baquette toasts. Tapenade is an olive-lover's dream.

| Chocolate Peanut Butter Combos Candy Recipe |
Mon, 13 May 2013 00:00:32 +00002013-05-13T00:00:32Z |

Pretzels, peanut butter, and chocolate...oh my! Think of a peanut butter cup sitting on top of a pretzel and you should soon be drooling. There's something magical about the way the salt and crunch bounce off the sweet filling. The recipe is quite simple, and assembly is well worth the time. If you have kids, it's a great way to let them help while keeping them busy. These candies are quite addictive, so luckily this recipe makes a lot.

| Easy Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Recipe |
Sat, 11 May 2013 00:00:26 +00002013-05-11T00:00:26Z |

Chicken pot pies and chicken & dumplings are good ol' American comfort foods. Combine them into a casserole, and you have a hearty family meal. This recipe is a take-off on the popular "impossible" pies that magically create their own "crust." The ingredients are layered into a casserole, without stirring, then baked. So easy, yet so yummy.

| Baked Shrimp Sausage Risotto Recipe |
Thu, 09 May 2013 00:00:43 +00002013-05-09T00:00:43Z |

Although not traditional, this risotto is made easily in the oven. The sausage and shrimp turn this baked risotto into a flavorful one-pot meal. If you do not own a clay-pot, use a covered Dutch oven in a preheated 375 F. oven. Cheddar cheese may be substituted for the Parmesan and additional chicken broth may be substituted for the wine.

The combination of chocolate and caramel is a match made in heaven, and who doesn't love brownies? Put the two together and experience nirvana! It's hard to believe 5 simple ingredients can create such a party in the mouth. This recipe starts with a cake mix to save time. Have the kids do the unwrapping of the caramels but remind them you will need them all for the recipe!

| Spanish Rice Recipe |
Sun, 05 May 2013 00:00:17 +00002013-05-05T00:00:17Z |

Spanish rice varies from region to region, but I think you will definitely enjoy this recipe. It is enriched with salsa, cumin, and chili powder to give that Latin flavor. This version is fairly mild, but you can easily bump up the heat by using a hot salsa and/or increasing the amount of chili powder. Please do not skip the cilantro. It mellows out quite a bit with heat, but still gives that subtle hint of flavor necessary to set it apart. This rice goes great with Taco Meatballs or Meatloaf.

| Spotting High-Fat Foods on Menus |
Wed, 17 Apr 2013 23:19:05 +00002013-04-17T23:19:05Z |
It's a little easier to spot high-fat foods on menus these days. After all, many restaurants now publish calorie counts, though not terribly accurately, as researchers from Tufts University have noted. More comprehensive calorie count requirements, covering a wider range of restaurants, still seem a long way off. Yet eating out can be the undoing of many a diet. Without adequate labeling plus overly large portion sizes, it's easy to overeat at restaurants. You can help yourself a little by becoming acquainted with some of the descriptions that indicate a food is high in fat. Some are obvious; others may be less so. So here's a guide to spotting some typically high-fat foods in restaurants. ...Read Full Post |
