Creamy Garlic-Seafood Soup

"The broth was wonderfully creamy. We used American Saffron instead of the threads, and red snapper instead of the black due to availability. This soup had just the right amount of heat (spicy wise). We served it with Pinot Grigio and some French bread."

Cute idea! I didn't do the spicy stuff to keep it kid friendly. I just happened to have all needed ingredients (usually keep pizza dough for my son). Would be an easy dish to make for houseguests or even when you are a houseguest. Will make again!

Heartthrob Salad

Credit: Photography: Becky Luigart-Stayner; Styling: Lydia DeGaris-Pursell

"I love this salad, and so does my husband. The hearts of palm are one of my favorite ingredients. I've made this over and over again, and everyone raves over it. The flavors blend nicely and do allow some flexibility with ingredients if you're feeling imaginative, though it doesn't need any tweaking to be wonderful." -EMA

Cherry-Pistachio Bark

"I made these as Valentine gifts for friends, a white chocolate and milk chocolate batch. They both went over well. If you're on a budget you can save about 15 dollars off the cost of 2 batches if you use cherry flavored craisins instead of dried cherries." -Whitney

Sausage and Vegetable Deep-Dish Pizza

I did add the cornmeal to the pan and then put the dough on top. I thought this was awesome." -mylilhunny13

Chicken-Tortilla Pie

This is a great simple recipe. I didnt have a spring form pan so I just cooked in on a round cookie sheet. I added some frozen corn that I defrosted for a couple more veggies. I used jar salsa just to make it easier. The bean dip was too spicy for our kids, but all the adults loved it. I will make it again for sure!!" -RCMSTL
