Star-trek/6 recipes

Enjoy the decadence of this rich classic lightened up. This simple and easy French onion soup lets you enjoy without the guilt. Use any leftover bread you might have, it's extra filling using some toasty whole-wheat grain filled bread and it gives a nutritional boost.

This recipe comes from Italy by way of Argentina. Maxwell Mowry of Charleston got this recipe when he lived in Buenos Aires in the early l970s. Since there are more people of Italian ancestry in Argentina than of Spanish ancestry, it is not surprising to find panettone there, where it is called in Spanish pan dulce, meaning 'sweet bread.' At Christmas in Argentina, pan dulce is eaten accompanied by sparkling apple cider. Houseware shops in Argentina sell special tall cylindrical springform pans to bake the pan dulce, but an empty, greased 1-pound coffee can may be used.

Made this Hawaiian stuffed chicken breast for dinner, didn't have herb stuffing mix, so I sliced up 1 slice of whole grain bread into 1/2-inch cubes, tossed with a bit dry Italian herb mix and a bit olive oil...

Serve these succulent baked German pork chops over a bed of rice or with some good bread to soak up all the yumminess.

Incredibly quick and easy and packed with flavor. Shallow poaching keeps the flavor from leeching into the poaching liquid and then reducing the liquid to make a sauce captures every last drop of delicate flavor.

Pan seared scallops served on a bed of fennel puree with a sweet Balsamic drizzle. This recipe was inspired by Masterchef New Zealand contestant Rob and I've modified the ingredients and instructions to match those that are commonly available in North America along with experimentation to make the recipe lower in fats yet every bit as flavorful.

This easy balsamic glaze makes a delicious coating for salmon. Enjoy it with simply roasted asparagus.

An Indian inspired recipe is full of flavor, a great side dish with some grilled meat.

Love this mediterranean style pasta salad! Marinated artichoke hearts, olives, and feta cheese were a delicious combination. The cherry tomatoes and broccoli add the fresh taste, sometimes we add several strips of roasted bell pepper, or freshly sliced mushrooms, or a few coarsely chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

This decadent brownie recipe was recently clipped from my local newspaper.

This Mexican style enchilada casserole is loaded with flavor. Sauteed vegetables, spices and cheese make this casserole absolutely cheesy and delicious.

I omitted the parsley and scallions (had none) and used chopped onion instead. I also added some red pepper flakes for some heat. I treated this as a marinade for my boneless, skinless breasts, which cut cut into strips and marinated overnight. I skewered the strips and grilled for 5-6 min. per side. Excellent flavor.

Enchilada casserole with a twist!

An easy and great tasting way to use up any leftover stuffing from that Thanksgiving or Christmas turkey.

We loved it and used it in the Turkey Lasagna recipe.
