Fresh, quick and easy - shrimp and avocado in a lemon, tomato dressing seasoned with mint and cilantro.

Juicy bite-size cherry tomatoes stuffed with a tasty filling that includes mozzarella, basil and sun-dried tomatoes. Tasty pop-in your mouth mini-explosions of flavor.

Cheesy, moist and delicious! These biscuits are certainly one of the best ones we have ever had.

This is my version of the wonderful dish known as General Tso's Chicken (sometimes also called General Chicken.) I use quite a bit of ground chilies in my recipe. (If you prefer a milder version just reduce the amount of ground chilies.)

This carrot cake is outstanding, moist inside and creamy on top, I have no coconut chips left, so I didn't sprinkle coconuts on top. The cake is just delicious, but you have to be careful of the pineapple and juice, don't use more than recipe says, otherwise the cake won't work.

A refreshing summer salad that is made with fresh and seasonal vegetables and berries. Low in fat and calorie, but packed with goodness. Feel free to use blueberries, raspberries, or a combination of all three.

This handy appetizer impresses everyone, simple, easy and full of flavor and very easy to eat.

Instead of the raisins, this Apple Strudel uses dried cranberries instead. It's also lighter, crispier and easier to make by using phyllo pastry instead of typical thick pastry.

A simply delicious meal for busy week-days or a cozy dish on the weekends. Layers of yummy flavor and can be served with any pasta.

Mixing brie with the mashed potatoes adds an incredibly creamy and rich taste. Baked in the oven adds a nice crisp crust on top.

Old fashioned classic with a twist, a little barley boosts the fiber along with corn kernels makes it more filling. Fills the kitchen with a lovely smell whilst baking.

I made this recipe for my boyfriend on his birthday and he asked me to marry him (I did). I'm not saying for sure that the Prinzregent Torte is why Don wanted to marry me, but I've always worried that it might have been. It is a magnificent recipe that always evokes incredulous cries of pleasure from people that I serve it to. The cake is a lot of work, so I only make it about once a year, but the people that I make it for feel very special.

Low-fat ricotta cheese and goat cheese on top of the phyllo, mixed mushrooms with leeks cooked in white wine, on top of the cheese, delicious...

Make your own pasta at home. Fresh pasta isn't hard to make it just takes a little bit of time and effort and the results are well worth it. If you don't have a pasta machine you can roll it out, fold into layers and cut with a knife to make your own custom noodles.

My first time to try home-made crackers, they are very easy to make, these crackers were great, very crispy and very tasty, the sesame seeds bring the huge flavor, I also made a avocado dip served with them, cream cheese goes well with these crackers too.
