This is a very popular recipe in India, liked by almost everyone. You may have to go to a nearby Asian Indian store to get the 'Pav Bhaji Masala' that is the special spice to bring the flavor (Masala means spice). Pav is actually the buns. Bhaji is the vegetables cooked with spice.

Ham and Corn Chowder
I came up with this potato, ham, and corn chowder recipe after trying to figure out what to do with some leftover ham bits. So far, everyone loves it.
Tahini Chicken
Tahini chicken is quick, tasty, and out of the ordinary. The key ingredient, tahini, is a sesame paste available in Asian stores, but recently has been seen in major grocery chains.
