Learn how to make Tortilla Espanola, a Spanish Omelet. In Spain, a tortilla isn't the cornmeal flatbread we think of but a sort of omelet loaded with onions and potatoes. This is a popular item at tapas bars and an easy dinner to make after an evening of celebrating.

This recipe is easy, cheap, nutritious, and my four kids (age 1,2,4, and 5) all eat 2 or 3 of them each time I make it. The first time I made it, I had to double the recipe in a hurry because everyone ate so much. It's even good without sauce.

Just by dipping the top into melted chocolate makes these already delicious tails taste even better. Nothing can go wrong with the combination of butter and chocolate. They are wonderful Christmas cookies every year, and your family or friends will be asking you for these cookies every Christmas.

Even the sweet potato/yam "dis-liker" (me) liked the flavor of these. Nice little bite from the cayenne. And the amount of sugar was just right. I don't care for really "sweet" yam dishes at all! Thanks for this addition to our holiday dinner. (Part of my "Thanksgiving 2010" Menu)

Original chile con queso contains lots of fat, try this low-fat chile con queso, and cut at least half of the fat, but it tastes delicious, even better. Superbowl day, eat some homemade pita chips with this delicious dip, enjoy! The flavor is boosted by adding your favorite beer!

This easy yet tasty arugula and mushroom pizza takes no time to make, and it satisfies everyone in your house. The peppery arugula and meaty mushrooms work deliciously well with warm and melted mozzarella cheese. Use whole wheat pizza dough to make it even healthier and still taste delicious.

I can't believe how good these are! I generally hate carrots, even though I love most vegetables and eat them every day. I've been looking for a way to cook carrots that would allow me to add them to my diet. This is it! Thanks so much for posting this wonderful recipe!

Even if you don't like eggplant, you will love this dish. Roasting develops huge amount of flavor and gets rid of most of the moisture from the vegetables. Roasted garlic just adds more yumminess. A delicious pasta dish that can be served as a side dish or a vegetarian main course.

Using fresh Tamarind pods make your own fresh homemade tamarind paste. You can use it in Indian cooking, Thai, Jamaican and Mexican. Add a spoonful to flavor curry, soups or even into meat taco mixes. In India it is used for a soft drink. Sort of like iced tea with an interesting tang or zing.

Like the name of the recipe, these veggie balls were absolutely wonderful. They came together nicely, and were packed with flavor. I have to say they are the best veggie balls I have ever had so far. I baked them in the oven for about 28 minutes to make them crisper on the outside.

This recipe came about due to our new found love of plantain. Have you ever tried it before? It’s super delicious and we love to eat it fried with honey, so we began to experiment to find the perfect plantain fritter recipe, and here it is. Hope you enjoy it!

Juicy chicken breast stuffed with cheese, shallots and cheese. The phyllo really helps hold in the moisture to keep the chicken breast moist. This is a reduced fat version of a popular recipe and it's equally as tasty in my opinion. If you wish to reduce the fat even further omit the cheese altogether.

Pad Thai Tip: For even more flavor, I'll often make a double batch of the pad Thai sauce. Then, as I'm stir-frying the noodles, I'll add more sauce until I'm happy with the taste (I also add extra fish sauce). Any leftover sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

With most 12 grain flour and whole wheat flour, these crepes come out super healthy with great nutty flavor. Fill these warm crepes with jam, fruits, or even savory filling such as sauteed vegetables or leftover cooked meat dishes. They are great at any time of the day, breakfast, lunch or supper.
