Strawberry Loquat Salsa
This strawberry loquat salsa recipe features loquats, a yummy, small fruit that tastes like mango and peach. They are hard to find in the grocery stores. The best places to find them are at a farmers' market or from a friend with a tree! Great over chicken and fish.

A spinach lasagna recipe made with fresh spinach and plenty of cheese — ricotta, Romano, and mozzarella. This cheesy, hearty lasagna can also be made without the spinach.
Squash and Coconut Milk Stew
This is a Filipino dish, (Ginostoan Sitawan Kalsbass) that is made with acorn squash, green beans, tofu, shrimp, ginger, garlic, and onion. My MIL makes it on the soupy side because you serve it over rice, but I like to mash the squash because I don't like rice.
