A little lime, salt, and honey go a long way in this dish created out of sheer boredom. One night last summer we were grilling fish and corn, yet again. When I asked my boyfriend what he wanted as a second side dish, all he said was, 'something different.' I decided to try a twist on the traditional fruit salad that I grew up eating, and it was a huge hit! The best thing about this recipe is that most fruits are great with the dressing, so you can use your favorites or whatever is in season.

Reindeer Poop Popcorn
Coconut, almonds, and chocolate enhance classic caramel corn in this recipe. This popcorn has a rich, melt-in-your mouth, crunchy addictiveness that causes people to use such words as 'crack' and 'sinful'.
My Italian Grandfather's Chicken Cacciatore
Favorite recipe handed down to me by my Italian grandfather Alfredo Marchese aka "Pop." Loved when we cooked this together while listening to the opera! Serve with polenta or spaghetti, spooning sauce over all. This was my Italian grandfather's sauce for game (mostly rabbit) but I love it for chicken. Mangia!
Chipotle Pineapple Ham
This Easter ham, glazed with a rich, smoky-sweet blend of chipotle, brown sugar, pineapple, and bourbon, is an unforgettable combination! I can't take full credit for it, as it combines a few recipes I found, and the result is absolutely delicious.
