If You Can’t Take the Heat, Get Out of The Kitchen: Appetizer Edition

Simple. Fast. Delicious. Healthy (mostly). No heat required.

Slice cucumbers and sprinkle with cajun seasoning and a little sea salt. Serve with your favorite hummus. And an ice cold, simple beer. Like Dale’s Pale Ale. Yum.

Smoky, tart and tasty: Parsley & Cherry Salad

image

Love this! Perfect for summer or fall.

From Rachael Ray magazine, June 2012. I promise, I am not trying to promote her. LOL. Just discovered a few great recipes in her magazine.

3/4 Tbsp ground cumin
3/4 Tbsp ground coriander
1 lemon, juiced
2 tsp honey
2 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 lb sweet cherries, pitted and quartered
8 oz. arugula
1/2 bunch flat-leaf parsley leaves

In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, honey, and spices. Whisk in the olive oil. Add the cherries, arugula, and parsley; toss well to coat.
