Ginger/15 recipes

Classic rich cheesecake studded with mini chocolate chips.

Note: 15 bean mixtures are available packaged in supermarkets and health food stores. If you prefer, make your own by combining equal amounts of dried blackeyed peas, red kidney beans, white kidney beans (cannellini), green lentils, split peas, black beans, yellow split peas, navy beans, cranberry (Roman, shell, or shell out) beans, great Northern beans, pinto beans, small white limas, red lentils, cow peas (field peas), and pink beans. Avoid using beans such as garbanzos and large lima beans, as these take longer to cook than other varities.

Asparagus, tofu, and bell pepper are stir-fried in a Chinese based garlic-ginger-soy sauce. It's packed with deliciousness and goodness.

It might seem a little odd, but this soup is so flavorful and easy to make! My daughter even loves it :) 3 simple ingredients that's it. 1 bag 15 bean soup dry (rinse and soak in pot of water overnight) 1 can of Rotel (I use mild for a little kick) 1 packet of dry ranch dressing mix. Soak beans overnight, then bring beans and about 6-8 cups water to a boil. Add can of Rotel and ranch mix to pot and simmer for 2-3 hours.

Why this recipe works: Simmering chicken broth with lime zest and ginger is a shortcut to Asian flavor.

Succulent chicken breast is served on top of salad greens, fresh herbs and gorgonzola cheese tossed with a simple lemon vinaigrette.

Steam asparagus until tender but still crispy, then drizzle a reduced mixture that's made with apricot jam, red wine vinegar, cinnamon, and ginger. Absolutely easy and delicious.

Treat your next group of dinner guests with this succulent chicken dish that won't disappoint anyone!
