Shrimp and Orzo Salad
There are so many shapes of pasta out there. One of my favorites is orzo: rice-shaped pasta. I do not see it used as often as its more popular relatives like spaghetti, penne, linguine et al, which is a shame. I love the fact that orzo can be treated like rice and used to make tomato-based (jollof) or stir-fried dishes. It can be creamy like a risotto or made like rice and served with a stew or sauce. Here I use it to make a cold salad with shrimp and sweet cherry tomatoes. Use a lot of garden-fresh herbs to elevate this salad and feel free to add more vegetables if you want.
High Altitude Chocolate Cake
This high-altitude chocolate cake never collapses, which is something I can't say for other cakes I've baked at high altitudes! This cake has been tested at 9,000 feet and always turns out fluffy and moist. Frost this delicious layer cake with cream cheese-vanilla bean frosting. Bailey's buttercream or a mocha frosting are also great choices.
