Cranberry Orange Chutney {with Crystallized Ginger}
This super easy recipe is a wonderful twist on the Thanksgiving favorite cranberry sauce ~ Cranberry Orange Chutney with Crystallized Ginger. I’ve slightly adapted this recipe from one I found on Epicurious and this year we’re going to use this lovely chutney in Cranberry Orange & Ginger Chutney Brie Tarts, a recipe by the Authentic Suburban Gourmet. I can hardly wait!!

Shark Kebabs {aka Shark Bites}
Today I was given the challenge of coming up with a Shark recipe. Yes I said Shark…as in Jaws (but smaller, teeth removed). What came home from the store was a fresh Shark fillet and a vote of confidence, “I know you’ll come up with something good…and shouldn’t everyone try shark at least once?!” And so the recipe research began. After reading many I began to see a pattern….powerful punchy flavors. Not sure what we’re covering up but I’m all in. Welcome Shark Kebabs with Orange-Avocado Salsa served over Spiced Cashew Rice. Thank you Epicurious and Food & Wine for these great recipes.

Cuban Stuffed Pork Chop {with Sweet Potato Chips}
Sometimes a recipe comes to you… Wow! What kind of intro is that?! Recipes come to me in my sleep, in line at the seafood counter, checkout counter, bookstore, kitchen table, pillow talk, water cooler….love to eat. I completely love talking about food. My co-workers are amazing inspiration. We eat together, share leftovers, and stories of recipe incarnations. Today I went to the grocery store at noon to pick up lunch for a few girls in the office. At the deli counter were prepared Cuban Sandwiches. I love a Cuban! And that’s how it happens. How can I deconstruct a Cuban sandwich and turn it in to “What’s for Dinner?”
