This recipe makes 12 servings and keeps in the refrigerator up to 5 days. It's quite versatile--add shredded chicken and serve tortillas on the side to make it a main-dish salad. Or serve it as a dip with baked tortilla chips, a side for burgers or grilled chicken, or a salad on a bed of lettuce.

Great as a Side dish or a Salsa served with Fish, Chicken or Pork

My husband claims this marinade makes skinless chicken breasts taste like a good cut of steak. I'm not so sure about tasting like steak, but this is deffinitely not a boring ol' slab of grilled chicken. Moist and tender with loads of flavor. They even taste good reheated the next day. Oh and the nutritional info isn't exactly acurate because you don't actually eat all of the marinade but I'm not sure how to make it acurate.

Adapted from http://frazgofeasting.blogspot.com/2009/03/sourdough-dried-fruit-scones.html, these are made without any kind of added fat or eggs (and would be fat free if you use skim milk). They're a good, quick carb hit that's completely customizable and a great way to use up starter toss-off. For Easter I soaked the fruit (raisins and currants) in amaretto and made crosses on the baked scones with a confectioner's-sugar and almond extract icing.

This is the meal my kids request most when we get together. I've developed this version based on curry in Japan, and my memories of curries my Mom made. It is a real comfort food, and warms the tum, best in cool weather, but my family loves it any time. It makes a big pot -the serving number is an estimate. It's basically a thickened spicy stew, so easily varied according to your tastes. We love it with lots of potatoes and carrots. Enjoy!

Obviously, this recipe can be made lighter by varying the thickening agent, but I personally don't wish to mess with it. Let me know if you have luck with it.
