Tue, 21 May 2013 00:00:58 +0000

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.

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.

Spanish Rice Recipe

Sun, 05 May 2013 00:00:17 +0000

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.
