cucumber sushi on plate

Cucumber Kimchi in bowl

Cucumber KimchiAn easy to make side dish that pairs well with any Asian meal. You get a nice crunch and some spice (you can adjust the spice level depending on your preference).

finished Herbed Chicken Quarters with Smashed Potatoes on platter

Herbed Chicken Quarters with Smashed PotatoesI love making a large amount of roasted meats and veggies on a big sheet pan. It's such a time saver and it looks great presented on the table, as is, on the baking sheet. Gently smashing the potatoes before you put them in the oven allows the lovely meat and veggie juices to flavour them, while keeping them firm and intact. You can use any types of additional veggies you like along with the chicken and potatoes. I used carrots, celery, onions and garlic. This cost about $5 for 4 people. I like to serve it with a nice crusty rustic bread.

decorated Rose Pistachio Rice Pudding

Rose Pistachio Rice PuddingThis is a beautiful rice pudding that's spiked with pistachios, rose water, and cardamom, and then elegantly decorated on top. It's a recipe we've held in our family for decades. I hope you try it out. :)

DIY Organic Food Colouring - containers of food colors next to a swirled cake

DIY Organic Food ColouringI was chatting with a friend recently about how his kids are allergic to red food dye. It made me do some research, where I found that it contains plenty of chemicals, including petroleum. I decided to make my own food colouring from organic fruits and vegetables, and it was a total success!

Roasted Red Pepper and Habanero Hummus in bowl

Iced Cookies on plate

Iced Cookies from Muffin MixI scored a box of almond poppyseed muffin mix at the shops for 69 cents. The problem was, no one felt like having muffins. We did, however, really want some cookies. With a few tweaks to the mix, we had the most awesome chewy sugar cookies. I made a simple glaze for the tops because my family loves a bit of icing.

Questions

What Dessert Can I Make With These Ingredients?What kind of dessert can I make with these ingredients: chocolate covered cherries, kimci, lime tortilla chips, Mexican papaya, Fundelina, purple tortillas, and applewood bacon?

Planning a Salad Bar for 120 PeopleI'm making a tossed salad for 120 people. How many grape tomatoes, avocados, strawberries, cucumbers, croutons, and dressing will I need?

Removing Moisture from Gatorade MixI am trying to remove the moisture from Gatorade mix that was left open. I have it in the oven on 200. It has been there 3 hours, but it doesn't seem to be working very well. Any other suggestions? Since I live in Florida, I do not think that leaving it out, on say paper towels, is a viable option; the humidity is inescapable.

Shelf Life of Imitation Crab MeatI had imitation crab meat a few hours ago and noticed that the package said to use by September 1 and today is September 4. I'm worried that I can get sick. It was closed and in the fridge.

Canning Stew in the OvenMy mother and I recently canned a vegetable stew. She swears by the oven canning method and so we did that. My question is, why is this method not recommended even with everything being consistently hot? I would imagine everything would be killed off.
