Spice rub/5 recipes

Pannacotta is a bit like like very creamy "Jello", this one is sweetened slightly with sugar and gently flavored with a real vanilla. Panna cotta has roots as an Italian dessert. It is eaten all over Italy typically being served with fresh berries, caramel and chocolate. This recipe was inspired by a recipe in one of Gordon Ramsay's cookbooks.

Kick up the cranberry sauce with some serious spice!! Thanks to AquaExerciser friend, Lorelyn, for another great cranberry relish recipe!

Super moist and packed with delicious flavors. These muffins were made with whole wheat flour, but still turned out soft and fluffy.

I've always been a fan of combining sweet fruits with savory spices, it sets up a certain flavor balance that just works so well. Mango with chili pepper, peaches and thyme, rhubarb and rosemary. They're all delicious, so can there be any question that blackberries and rosemary would just be a match made in heaven?

"The light and fluffy texture of this this cool and creamy mousse is perfect after a heavy turkey dinner."

A very easy and fairly quick one pot meal that's perfect when you're in a hurry. Chunks of chicken and rice seasoned with star anise and Chinese five spice powder. Yum.

This kung pao tofu was very tasty. I used two green bell peppers and 1 red bell peppers. Didn't have oyster sauce, so I used housin sauce, and it worked deliciously well.

Apple Butter Muffins recipe

The combination of cashews, lentils, brown rice and other spices was delicious. Right balance of the flavor and the texture, we used cherry tomatoes instead, that's what we had on hand. It's a tasty yet nutritious meal.

Had some pumpkin puree and cream cheese on hand, wondering if I could make a dessert that had these two ingredients and chocolate. Found some recipes that almost fit my thoughts, then combined my own ideas, here these delicious cheesecake bars are. They were absolutely delightful and only lasted a few hours...

Store bought chili powder lacks authentic flavor. We like to make our own homemade chili powder which adds a tremendous boost to Chili, Tex-Mex or Mexican recipes.

A copycat recipe of a popular chinese chain in the US. The method used creates a super crispy skin for this roast chicken.

Cincinnati 5-Way Chili recipe

Hearty crock pot soup with lentils and lots of veggies.

These muffins are really good, just like recipe says they turned out super moist, the low-fat yogurt definitely added lots of moisture; and without any butter or oil, they were much lighter and super delicious!
