Food Fun

I've been wanting to try some totally new recipes. This week my morning sickness subsided enough for me to mess with raw meat and strong smells again. Here's what I tried.


My first home-made Pice de Gallo, served on a spicy steak fajita.



Orange/Broccoli Salad. Never made anything quite like this before. Contains broccoli, purple onion, cashews, mango and mandarin oranges. The dressing is made from buttermilk ranch, orange juice and horseradish. Totally delicious! Served with Tequila/Lime Chicken and herbed focaccia bread.



Cheese Chowder (with red peppers, carrots, and celery). So creamy and thick!



Thai Pork and Vegetables. I rarely cook with curry, so I really gave it a go. Good stuff. Couldn't find orzo at Walmart, so I just used white rice. Smelled like India in the kitchen.
