This is a green salsa I learned while in Mexico. It is a green salsa with avocado and it is delicious! I always make it when we do carne asada. I am always begged for the recipe. Enjoy!

Dog Food Dip
This "dog food" dip recipe was given to me by a co-worker some 15 or more years ago. She made it for potlucks at work, and it was always gone from the nurse's station before the rest of the food was put out! It's a simple mixture of beef, cheese, and jalapeños but it should always be made a day in advance to allow the flavors to blend. Serve with your favorite corn chips.

Baked Pumpkin Polenta
Chef John's baked pumpkin polenta gives a savory pumpkin twist to polenta prepared in an interesting, visually appealing, baked form. It is so soft and creamy inside a crust that holds its shape, subtly sweet and earthy.
