This is a nice change of pace for green beans, with an interesting, complex flavor. I steamed the beans instead of boiling to retain more of the nutrients. Lightly toasting the almonds boosted the nutty flavor.

This easy to make one-skillet dish is an ideal busy weekday dinner. Whole wheat spaghetti, lots of vegetables and toasted almonds lend the dish lots of nutrients, and it tastes simply delicious.

Cider Pumpkin Bread

Very moist, flavorful bread. The apple cider gives it a nice flavor. I subbed dried cranberries for the raisins and for the nuts, I used chopped pine nuts. Thanks for this nice addition to my fall repertoire.

Pear-Pecan Muffins

A nice Autumn flavor to these light muffins. The optional sugar topping makes a more crispy crust. To make these more diabetic friendly, I used Splenda for half of the sugar. Feel free to use all brown sugar.

Balsamic-Honey Glazed Beets & Arugula Salad with Goat Cheese

The balsamic-honey glaze gives the earthy beets a nicely caramelized flavor that goes very well with peppery arugula and creamy goat cheese. The toasted walnuts adds the nutty flavor and crunchy texture, which is well paired with the dried cranberries or cherries. A delicious combination and refreshing salad.

Pan Seared Tilapia with Lemony Green Beans

This delicious dish takes no time to cook, and it comes out super tasty. The fish is very moist on the inside with a nice texture on the outside, packed with great flavors. A lemony green beans are a perfectly refreshing and tasty side dish along with it.

Homemade Multigrain Bread

Store-bought bread can never compete with homemade fresh loaf. This heart healthy multigrain bread is full of goodness, an ideal sandwich bread. You can make round loaves, bake them in the loaf pan, or shape into whatever prefer. The bread comes out fluffy inside and crusty outside, and it tastes delicious!

Indian Spiced Two Beans & Sweet Potato Crock Pot

Chickpea, pinto beans, sweet potato and spinach are slowly cooked in crock pot with cumin, coriander, lemon juice and honey.

Shiitake, Bell Pepper & Vermicelli Potstickers

Potstickers are basically Chinese dumplings, just cooked differently. Instead of boiling in the water, you cook them in a hot pan with a bit oil and a bit water to develop a nicely browned and crispy crust. The fillings can be made in advance; the leftover dumplings, just freeze them raw. Whenever you feel like eating a few, cook the frozen ones directly in hot pan.
