I generally make these rice cakes for breakfast but occasionally enjoy them for dinner when my husband is out of town and I want to make something quick and easy. Growing up, I remember my dad making these for me every time we had leftover rice in the fridge. They're great topped with salsa! This recipe is a great base — have fun changing it up and making it your own.

Gazpacho a la Mrs. Landesman
I often find that most gazpacho is a little too acidic or that I only want a couple of spoonfuls. This recipe (which I got from my friend's mother) is AWESOME. It's not too acidic at all and is so wonderfully light and healthy.
Lebanese Zaatar (Za'atar) Bread
Traditional Lebanese bread. Crispy, flaky cracker like bread infused with fresh za'atar (similar to oregano). You can substitute oregano for za'atar, but use less. May place under broiler to brown tops.
Gluten-Free Coconut Cake
I made this for my mom's 65th birthday and frosted it with a simple vanilla buttercream. No one can tell it's gluten free!
