"This is the best Penne a la Vodka I have ever had! I cannot even order it in restaurants anymore, since it will never stand up to this fantastic recipe!"

Ingredients: fresh ground pepper, dried basil leaves...

"Made in my house for every family gathering and holiday. Possibly the most delicious thing you'll EVER eat--even if you don't like yams, which I don't."

Ingredients: dark brown sugar, heavy cream...

"This is such a wonderful summertime treat! I have used all kinds of fruit combinations in this; use your imagination. Far richer and intense in flavour than anything you can buy, and yet it's almost all just healthy fruit. The fruits that work best have a fairly smooth fleshy texture; things like mangoes, muskmelons, peaches, apricots, and bananas...."

Ingredients: fruit, mangoes, peaches...

"Mind-boggingly simple. If you are in a super hurry you can mix and serve the dip immediately, but the flavor is better after sitting for a while."

Ingredients: fresh Italian parsley, mayonnaise...

"I promise this is one of the nicest ways to enjoy quality tomatoes and basil. Like I say, don't make this if you can't get hold of home-grown or vine-ripened tomatoes. It's not worth doing. And don't use your tomatoes from the fridge."

Ingredients: fresh ground black pepper, olive oil...

"This is one of my favorite recipes, full of Mediterranean flavor and high in calcium. It uses pecorino romano, a salty parmesan-like hard cheese made of sheep's milk. I used a goat's milk feta but you can use any type of feta you can find. It calls for lacinato kale (a/k/a dinosaur kale) which is preferable if you can find it - If not, use..."

Ingredients: pecorino romano cheese, extra virgin olive oil...

"My friend Lorraine B gave me this wonderful recipe when I was looking for an interesting hostess gift. One of the best things about this recipe is that it only takes one week to infuse, as opposed to up to a month that I've seen in other recipes. I actually made a quadruple recipe and got 6 bottles to give as gifts (I kept one for myself, of course!)...."

Ingredients: lemons, sugar, vodka...

"Decadent chocolate truffles, made even more sinful with the addition of your favourite liqueur. The yield will depend on how small you roll the truffles; I get at least 15 usually."

Ingredients: egg yolks, icing sugar...

"From: Boschendal Wine Estate Restaurant,
Cape Province, South Africa.

It is actually a delicious cake but rich!!
Very simple to make."

Ingredients: bicarbonate of soda, eggs...

"This is a favorite of ours at breakfast and brunch parties. This drink has a beautiful hot pink color and great flavor that children especially enjoy. For a slightly sweeter drink, add up to 2 tablespoons sugar to the recipe. The drink can be enjoyed right away or chilled overnight."

Ingredients: watermelon, strawberries...

"This recipe is easily cut in half if this is too much. This refreshing punch is delicious, and always a hit at any summer gathering. Use a Citrus Ice Ring (recipe posted separately) in the punch bowl -- it's pretty, and it keeps the punch cold."

Ingredients: frozen concentrated orange juice, frozen limeade concentrate...

"There are many crisp recipes on the site, but I didn't find one quite like this one. There are no cans of cherry pie filling here. Yes, you too can make a cherry crisp from scratch, using real cherries! You could use this filling for many other things like ice cream topping, or Toast-tites on the campfire! Yummy!"

Ingredients: cinnamon, cornstarch...

"These are easy and delicious. We prefer these rolled in ground almonds, although they are also great in coconut."

Ingredients: coconut, evaporated milk...

Ingredients: ground cumin, dried garbanzo beans...
