Tandoori turkey in the oven
For a few years now I've wanted to try to marry the traditional Southern Indian food my husband grew up enjoying with Thanksgiving as I know it (Southern girl with a love of spice and heat).
So this year I did a trial run of a tandoori-style turkey made in the oven. By next year I hope to build my own tandoor, or at least grill this guy, because it needs a little more heat to crisp up properly.

There's nothing more comforting than a juicy meatloaf for dinner.
I love flavors that go well together, like ham and cheese, peanut butter and jelly, etc.
For savory dishes, feta and spinach is a delicious classic combination.

The salsa does more than bring a spicy kick; along with the spinach and whole-wheat tortilla, it contributes fiber. The beans do, too -- and they also lend a protein boost.
Night before: Assemble the quesadillas, place in a portable container, and put in the fridge.

My mother is a reader of Woman's Day Magazine (whose recipes I usually love) and she passed on these 2 ingredient recipe cards to me. Sure, some of them are a little odd and I will probably never, ever attempt, but there were a few that immediately grabbed my attention and I can't wait to try out! (Pineapple with coconut sorbet...:DROOL:)
If you want the actually cards to print out and some additional ideas: http://www.womansday.com/food/6577/2-ingredient-recipe-cards.html, http://www.womansday.com/food/6373/none.html
Appetizers

This is one of my favorite pasta recipes! It'll blow your guests away, because it's delicious, but it's really easy to prepare!
Every time I make this, it's a little different and I never know how much I use of everything.

To compliment my post on the health benefits of spinach, I decided to also post my favorite spinach dip recipe. Although this recipe calls for only 1 avocado, I usually use 2: I process one in the blender with the other ingredients, and for texture, I chop the second avocado and add the chunks just before serving. Quite tasty!

If you're looking for a meal that's quick and jam-packed with vegetables, this is a great one to try! I love it because it's got a delicious Caesar taste and doesn't make me feel guilty for eating it. Plus, I can pick and choose what vegetables I want in it - always a good thing in my house.
