Sautéed Radishes
Cooking radishes makes for a delicious side dish with this recipe. I had too many radishes in the garden and needed a way to use them besides just an addition to salad. These turn really sweet.
Kicked-Up Goulash

A flatbread that starts in the bread machine and ends up on an outdoor grill. My sister 'discovered' this bread when she had a batch of bread dough rising in her bread machine when the power went off for the whole day. Incredible.
