Living on the coast we are sometimes forced to evacuate during hurricane season. Put this pasta salad in a covered container, and throw it in the cooler. It's a full meal in one bowl. It's easy to serve. Spoon it up into a cup and eat it in the car, camper, or in our case, a motel room! That's why we call it Evacuation Tuna & Pasta Salad.

Hot Wing Hummus
Craving hot wings but don't want the calories? This hummus variation will do the trick. Creamy, low fat, and full of flavor. Can be made as hot or mild as you like. Tastes great with celery sticks, too! It's good right away, and even better the next day!
Chunky Corn Chowder (Vegan)
A comforting and satisfying chowder with chunky veggies - perfect for a cold winter's day or any time you crave comfort soup! My son has severe food allergies and cannot have any dairy or egg - so I created this to satisfy his craving for soup! I make it a point to create recipes for him that the rest of the family is also thrilled to eat and this definitely meets that criteria. It tastes a little more broth-like than traditional chowders, but was very comforting nonetheless.
Moroccan Shabbat Fish
Every Shabbat my mother-in-law makes this Moroccan fish. I've modified it since the fish she uses in Israel isn't available in the Midwest. When you smell this fish cooking, you know it's Shabbat! Serve this with lots of challah to soak up the yummy juice!
