Spring recipes

Gazpacho (Moosewood) recipe

Shiitake mushrooms, tofu, bok choy and carrots are cooked together with ginger, sesame oil, oyster sauce and broth. Tons of fresh and delicious flavor. Yum!

Beet greens are sauteed with ginger, garlic, scallions and tossed with soy sauce, chili bean sauce, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. A tasty and light stir-fry that can be served as a side dish or with some rice, or a few slices of bread to become a light meal.

You can bake these small casseroles in individual baking dishes or even a muffin pan, or you can use regular casserole and extend the cooking time. A great breakfast.

Don't have pizza dough, not a problem, use store-bought wraps. We can still make freshly baked and delicious pizza!

Baked pork chops with bacon and egg fried rice. Browned on the stovetop and finished in the oven for tender pork.

Tuna casserole? Many will moan, but this recipe changes the image. Nice texture and crunch from the water chestnuts and the creamy sauce was wonderful. A real winner on this old classic.

Spring is coming and one of the first vegetables of spring is asparagus. Wrapped with a crispy phyllo pastry spiked with thyme then topped with cheese really takes this main dish up to the next level.

This Greek-style spinach pie was absolutely delicious! The cheese mixture of ricotta and feta was moist and cheesy, which gave the pie lots of flavors; sauteed mushrooms, spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes were a great combination. The phyllo came out golden brown and crispy. This pie can be served as a lighter main dish or an elegant appetizer.

Simply Incredible!!! I have never had a quiche recipe work for me. They always end up a soupy mess and leave me frustrated and dejected. This one turned out so wonderfully and gorgeous - pretty enough for company. It tasted fantastic. I used a quiche pan instead of a 9" pie pan(as I said I never had one turn out, but it doesn't stop me from trying) ;-) If you like chorizo and want to try a quiche recipe that is totally fool proof - THIS IS THE ONE!!! Yummy!!! I'd give it 10 stars if I could.

This quick and easy stir-fry is a tasty way to cook seasonal eggplant and bell pepper together with classic Chinese seasonings. Serve it over rice.

This is a great dish to serve guests when you really want to impress them. Looks wonderful to the eye, especially using yellow and red peppers for some contrasting colours. And the taste is perfect for summer or any season. Very light and fresh with little bursts of flavors and textures.

Tender Red Snapper filets baked in wine with a bubbling creamy sauce topped with cheese and breadcrumbs oregano.

Super quick and easy, shrimp in a lemony garlic and butter sauce. What could be better?

Bisquick (or any biscuit mix) helps make an easy inexpensive main dish. Packed with meaty mushrooms this vegetarian main is ready when you are.
