Convenient (and relatively inexpensive) way to have chai lattes at home with this chai concentrate, a favorite tea. The cardamom can be a bit expensive; try looking in the bulk section of a health food store. If you need to buy a jar of it, don't worry — it will make several batches!

Red Raspberry Vinaigrette
Raspberry vinaigrette with jam is a very easy, flavor-filled dressing that goes with any kind of salad. Only three ingredients! I like to use it with romaine, feta, toasted pecans, bacon, and red onion.
Stir-Fried Japanese Ginger Pork
If you can't find daikon radishes, use a bunch of small red radishes when in season. I love this stir-fry because you can add any veggies you like, including spring onions, savoy, or Chinese cabbage... whatever you have handy.
