Great tasting grilled tuna steaks, with a bit of a bite from the jalapenos in the topping.....if you're heat sensitive, omit or reduce the amount for your tastes. Recipe is from Beth Kotek. Cooking time does not include the marinating and sitting times, or the time it takes to get your grill ready. -- posted by breezermom

This cake is moist and fudgy, a great way to use up some of your summer zucchini. Would also be good with chocolate ganache, a thin white icing or glaze or even just sprinkled with chocolate chips while hot. *i used hershey's special dark cocoa- it's a mix of dutch and regular unsweetened so i think either would work here -- posted by newmama

Thanksgiving with 'all the fixin's' is blended into a savory meatloaf made with ground turkey, green beans, cranberries, and topped with pancetta (Italian bacon). Serve with a flavorful 'made from scratch' gravy to enjoy favorite holiday flavors in a different mode.

Fresh grouper is my absolute favorite. It is a mild fish and this recipe may entice even those who don't like fish to make it a favorite. The recipe is super easy and can be served with a minimum preparation and cooking time. Perfect for a warm summer evening supper. Garnish with lemon twists and parsley before serving.

A simple recipe for barbecued halibut. Soy sauce and brown sugar add a special zip that is uncommonly delicious.

This is an easy not-too-sweet, delicious alternative to tomato sauce based pizzas! Sure to satisfy everyone. Use any kind of barbeque sauce and it will still be a winner!

My Australian husband first made these burgers a few weeks after arriving in the USA. They became a hit with our family. They're a bit messy but delicious. Hunger busting burgers topped with every topping imaginable. Wrap your laughing gear around that. Stretch! Crikey! It's a meal in one go.

This is a delicious recipe for a focaccia sandwich with roasted eggplant and red bell peppers and sauteed portobella mushrooms. You can substitute your favorite veggies and use any Italian flat bread you choose.

Simple, easy fish recipe. Any white fish will do! And even the kids will eat up the spinach! (My four year old loves this dish!) This recipe was passed on by my Aunt and was a little bit of this, a little bit of that - so tweak the ingredients to your liking!

We like this one because it looks so pretty with dabs of green zucchini, yellow corn and red tomato. These veggies are folded into a buttermilk batter and baked with cheese and egg. Great zucchini treat, anytime.

Poach a fresh piece of tuna for this satisfying salad. Toss with penne, blanched broccoli, tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, olives, walnuts, garlic and parsley. Dress with a pungent infusion of anchovy and olive oil, then serve immediately.

This is a simplified version of sauerbraten that does not require marinating. Sliced top round steak is browned and simmered with vinegar, brown-gravy mix, and spices. Sour cream could be added at the end of cooking.

Warm corn tortillas filled with spicy chipotle shrimp and garnished with cilantro, onion, and lime.

Whole cranberry sauce and brown sugar, combined with nutmeg and cinnamon, go into this great holiday apple pie.

Great summertime snack without the campfire!

No-cook banana pudding made with cream cheese, condensed milk and whipped topping.

This cake tastes just like the name suggests - like a honey bun. It has been served to hundreds of people and everyone has said how much they liked it. It is a sweet cake and not for those that are watching their weight. Tastes wonderful if served with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Orange flavored gelatin adds the 'fruity' to this dip made with sour cream and whipped topping.

This simple recipe combines cream, butter, marshmallow creme, white chocolate and orange extract to make this classic favorite.

I made a better recipe out of an old favorite of the family. Please use the brand names for the ingredients, Ghirardell Cookie mix, Heath Chips, since it makes a huge difference. All of our family, friends request these cookie bars. Make sure you make two, they disappear f-a-s-t! -- posted by cookn'4five

Just in time for last minute BBQ's, this recipe is easy and simply delicious! -- posted by Corrinne J

"Rice with mung beans (maash polow) is a delightful summer dish, light, simple and delicious. Mung beans are good in soups, salads and are super delicious when cooked with rice, sauteed onions and a heavy pinch of turmeric, slowly over low heat. I like to use equal portions of rice and beans for this dish. If you like you can add another 1/2 cup of rice to the recipe." Along with the serving options I also think dibs (date syrup) and Balkan yogurt separately would work well together with this dish but have yet to try. That way it would make it more of an Iraqi version since the best date syrup comes from Iraq. Recipe modified from http://turmericsaffron.blogspot.com -- posted by UmmBinat

This recipe was given to me by a friend several years ago. It has a very unique flavor and is quite addicting. Garnish with chopped ripe olives or cilantro, and serve with your favorite salsa. -- posted by Butterfly_FX

Serve these baked pancakes-latkes with sour cream or applesauce, dusted with a little cinnamon sugar or jam, or with the baked fruit compote (recipe included). From Parade magazine. -- posted by BecR

I came up with this tonight while trying to do something new. Not bad. I used 24 cookies, and I think they could have used more. -- posted by Elaniemay

Wow, this is so good that I'd make it everyday... if it wasn't 90 degrees in my kitchen. I usually end up using more honey. -- posted by lobquin
