Crispy Zucchini or Pumpkin Blossoms

Rating: 4.5 stars 35
My Italian grandmother makes these fried zucchini blossoms every year when the zucchini in her garden start to bloom.

Fennel in Wine and Honey

Rating: 4 stars 59
A great side dish for fennel lovers, originally from a friend in Israel. I have used water instead of broth, with some added salt and seasoning. I have also replaced the mustard seed with regular mustard.

Green Banana Fries

Rating: 4.5 stars 65
I learned about this when I was in Kenya. I've never tasted better fries nor more nutritious fries. Potatoes aren't that common in Kenya but bananas and roots are. They taste as good as any fast food French fries and are healthier. Green bananas are the healthiest because they have all their vitamins where ripe ones lose most of them because they're too ripe. Green bananas do not have a strong banana flavor at all. It's very deceptive and very healthy. I couldn't stop eating them.

Hawaiian Chicken Kabobs

Rating: 4.5 stars 792
These kabobs are tender, sweet, and delicious. They're easy to make and only require a few ingredients.

Mom's Potato Puffs

Rating: 4.5 stars 55
My mother would always cook extra mashed potatoes so us kids could have these delicious puffs the next day. Over the years I have experimented with her basic recipe and sometimes will add grated cheddar cheese, chopped green onions and bacon bits to the mixture. I have also added corn niblets for a really different tasting puff.

Scallop-Avocado Appetizer

Rating: 4 stars 10
Easy, elegant starter: One of the most popular appetizers I've ever served, this combo of low-calorie seafood and antioxidant-rich tomatoes, onions, avocado and cilantro looks and tastes great.

Ukrainian Sandwiches

Rating: 4.5 stars 32
These open faced Ukrainian sandwiches are very easy to make and are really good. If you can find Eastern European style sausage then try it with that, otherwise use your favorite cold cuts. They are called 'Kanapki' in Ukrainian.

Polish Mistakes

Rating: 4.5 stars 62
A great appetizer that is loved by all, especially men. Serve these meaty, cheesy delights on game day! For later use, place the topped bread on a cookie sheet in the freezer for 1 hour. Once frozen, the slices may be stored in freezer bags.

Cinnamon-spiced apples are baked with a sweet oat crumble topping.

Artichoke Dip

This dip is good hot, cold, or room temperature. Serve it with tortilla chips or pita wedges and be sure to get your taste, because it doesn't last long at a party!
