*When you buy carambola, also called star fruit, look for ones that are uniformly yellow to orange and have a subtle perfume. If they are green, they aren't ripe and won't yield a great deal of flavor. At their ripest, their flavor is an unmistakably tropical combination of apple, banana and lychee.

The great Apple Crisp I grew up on! Maybe this is one of the reasons I had by-pass surgery!

It might seem strange to put pineapple on the grill, but it really brings out the flavor. As the sugar caramelizes on the surface it gives the pineapple a fantastic flavor. These pork chops get all the sweetness from the fruit and turn out great!

A delicious variation on the traditional pound cake! As noted in the recipe, the main ingredient measurements are by weight NOT volume. You'll notice that they are all one pound each. THAT'S what makes a TRUE pound cake.

This is such a fun recipe. I made an entree Vol Au Vent for a recent garden party with this chicken filling, filled the small puff pastry baskets with it. Not only it looked nice and elegant, it also tasted amazingly delicious. A great pick!

Quick and easy chicken fried rice. This is a great way to use up leftover cooked rice.

This recipe provides you with 67% of the daily value for protein from the chicken, and there are other nutritious vegetables in it, great combination!

great sauce!

Broccoli is a nice vegetable, it contains a lot of vintamin, tofu is a good food too, a lot of protein, easy for people to adsorb. It is really a very great recipe!

Enjoy all summer long as a topping for burgers, sandwiches and cold meats. This relish is so yummy and easy to make, you'll want to keep some on hand all year long.
