Citrus & Feta Salad, Homemade Honey-Lime Dressing
“Yum! This citrus salad is different and delightfully refreshing. With a honey-citrus flavor and a mild Dijon tang, we loved the salad dressing. The mix of greens with sweet clementines and pomegranate arils (seeds) is so delicious. Feta cheese crumbles and sunflower seeds add a little salt that balances the sweetness of the fruit. For extra flavor, add grilled chicken to the top for a complete meal. This salad makes healthy taste good.” - Kitchen Crew

Beet Lemon Hummus
“Hummus is a healthy snack loved by most people, and you can add just a bit of color and zing to it with beets. It may take a bit of getting used to the deep red-purple color, but this type of hummus has the perfect balance of sweetness from the beets and nuttiness from the chickpeas, all mixed in with zesty lemon and tahini.” - Shikha
Orange Chicken and Rice - Remade
“I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Orange Chicken but the stuff you get from takeout is always way too sweet and not very good for you at all. So, this is my take on orange chicken. The flavors are so bright and fresh and citrusy, by far my favorite.” - Beth
Grandma's Cabbage Burgers
“I made these cabbage burgers yesterday and got rave reviews from my husband - it was so nice to have a supply for the freezer! I added a slice of provolone to each packet before baking and it was a perfect result. I ran out of dough before I used up the filling so after refrigerating overnight, I turned the remaining meat/cabbage/onion into a delicious soup.” - Dee
