Try this alternative to the usual hummus. Muhammara is a delicious Syrian recipe for a spread of roasted red peppers, toasted walnuts and a touch of spice, offset by pomegranate molasses.

Southern (Indian) Thanksgiving
Tandoori turkey in the oven
For a few years now I've wanted to try to marry the traditional Southern Indian food my husband grew up enjoying with Thanksgiving as I know it (Southern girl with a love of spice and heat).
So this year I did a trial run of a tandoori-style turkey made in the oven. By next year I hope to build my own tandoor, or at least grill this guy, because it needs a little more heat to crisp up properly.
Zucchini Pasta
Okay, so the name is a little misleading, but I had this dish for dinner last night and I thought it was pretty tasty! The original recipe called for a little cream cheese, but #1 - I don't eat it and #2 - We have none in our house, so I just skipped that altogether. My husband said that it needed some sauce with it (I disagree), but he also said that just about anything would work - even some pasta sauce.
Awesome Asparagus Sandwich
I tried this recipe last week, converting one from allrecipes.com into something I would actually eat, and here's what I came up with! For those of you who like asparagus and red pepper, this is absolutely delicious! I made sandwiches both on Saturday and Sunday - couldn't help myself!
Give 'em Grilled Cheese
I was a latecomer to the wonderful world of grilled cheese. When I was younger, I didn't eat much cheese, due to apparent insanity, and when I got a little older, I honestly thought that you couldn't make grilled cheese without using American cheese.
Sooooo not a fan of American cheese.
