Maine/50 recipes

A hearty salad that's suitable as a main dish. Lots of flavors and textures throughout.

This sandwich absolutely deserves 5 star! It was so quick and easy to put together, and it was packed with flavour. We omitted the anchovies, used Swiss cheese, otherwise followed the recipe. If you are looking for a crowd-pleasing sandwich, this is the one!

Wok-Seared Mahi Mahi with Stir-Fried Vegetables recipe

A slow cooker chili that uses wild rice meatballs (store-bought to save time), black beans along with traditional chili seasonings.

We wanted a quick and easy recipe--and this was it. Just as good as any other turkey burger recipe we've tried. I made just 4 big patties, so cooked a few minutes longer than the 3-4 per side it calls for. I kept adding a little more olive oil to the pan to keep them from burning.

So good!

"Kohlrouladen" used to be a staple on the menu for regular people in Germany during winter time. The relatively long preparation and cooking time pays out, because it can be easily reheated over a couple of days and gets even better and tastier then. Fried potatoes complete the picture, but you can cook the potatoes also in the pot with the sauce, if there is space left. This recipe can be varied in many ways, be it the stuffing (ground meat here), or the sauce. The recipe is as traditional as it can be; the ingredients are adjusted to availability in North America (like Savoy cabbage in lieu of "Weisskohl", bacon to replace "Speckwuerfel"). For sure the ground meat can vary depending on preferences or diets - I bet quite often in the "good old times " regular people did not exactly know what's in the ground meat they got from the butcher - at least it was some meat, for most of the families only once a week.

Instead of tortellini soup, turn that tortellini into a filling chicken tortellini casserole. A baked tortellini al forno!

These tacos were delicious! Made them for a recent family dinner, and everyone at the table just kept asking for more. Thank goodness that I had enough to cover everyone's appetite :)

A delicious pizza Margherita is topped with bacon. A classic pizza with a modern twist gives you a double deliciousness.

Spicy succulent strips of chicken, onion and peppers mixed with sweetcorn, rice and cheese served in a warm tortilla. A great sharing dish – help yourself to a couple of enchiladas and eat with a fresh green salad, scatter with the rest of the grated cheese.

Kangaroo striploin tartlet served with sweet potato (or kumara) and Australian Bush Tomato jus.

These meatballs were great, and my kids really loved them. Will make it again.
