Tropical Tiramisu
Ah, nothing like the sweet taste of the tropics! Using my leftover coconut bunny cake I created a tiramisu featuring the tropical flavors of pineapple, mango, ginger, and macadamia nuts. My cake was a white cake but a leftover yellow cake would work just as well. Sliced almonds can be substituted for macadamia nuts.
Red Curry Coconut Squash Soup
This red curry coconut squash soup has such an amazing balance of flavors and has officially become my favorite soup. Perfect for a chilly fall day! The fall weather always serves as inspiration for soup, especially butternut squash soups. I wanted to put a spin on the typical squash soup this time, though. Optional garnishes include sliced scallions, toasted squash seeds, or shrimp. I highly suggest the toasted squash seeds as a garnish. They really add a lot!
Shrimp Fajita Rice Casserole
This shrimp fajita rice bake is relatively simple but the flavors really shine. Bright bell peppers, warm poblano peppers, and fire-roasted tomatoes bake with cooked rice and shrimp, and every serving is topped with avocado, sour cream, and cilantro.
