Sweet potatoes/5 recipes

I make this soup every Halloween and is the "signal" to the family that the cool weather has arrived. I've been making it for 15 years now and out of all the soups I make, it is still everyone's favorite. Enjoy!

Soft and delicious. I made half of the dough with both dark and golden raisins (soaked & drained) and the other with dried cranberries and chopped walnuts. Perfect.

This delicious chicken dish is loaded with succulent chicken chunks, fresh asparagus and red bell pepper that are cooked with garlic, ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil. Serve it with rice to make a complete meal.

Gets better the more days it sits. :)

This chocolate coffee pudding cake is a great dessert for family or your guests. Easy to make, and it tastes so good!

Gazpacho (Moosewood) recipe

Last Wednesday we took this colourful and delicious salad to a pot-luck, everyone loved it and a few of them even asked for the recipe. It was such a refreshing salad that's also packed with goodness.

While this cold salad has some elements of a traditional warm German potato salad, it is totally Americanized to suit my family's tastes. Great with grilled burgers, dogs, meats and poultry.

Moist, banana-y, and chocolaty. There are lots of deliciousness in this banana bread, and the best thing is that it's also full of goodness. It's made from applesauce, whole wheat flour, small amount of butter and oil, chocolate chips and walnuts. There are so many yummy ingredients going on, you will enjoy every bite!

Some like it REAL hot!

A simply delicious millet salad. It's quick, easy, tasty and healthy.

Meaty loin chops cooked in a tropical barbecue sauce, sweetened with pineapple. A taste of the islands.

I had this Greek pastry for the first time in a restaurant and I was not overly thrilled with it. So when I ran across this recipe and saw how easy is was to make I decided to try it. I liked my version much better, which will no doubt cause an uproar. So to anyone who has tried this dessert I want you to make this one and let me know if you like it, maybe it tastes nothing like it is suppose to.

An excellent way to use up leftover chicken or turkey meat. The recipe uses phyllo instead of a carb-dense and high-fat pie crust, which significantly reduces the amount of calories.

A savory and delicious dish made with succulent pork and coconut cream that will have you expressing how much you adore the taste!

Just like mom used to make it
