I love fresh butter beans but wanted easy of prep (no watching the pot in case the beans boiled dry) and found this recipe online and made a slight change to suit my personal preference.
The chickpeas and walnuts make this a delicious alternative to chips and dip. Recipe is taken from B & H Prize Winning Recipes. Serve this spread on toasted baguette slices or pita slices.
A tasty starter that is an ideal treat when having friends around. Leftover dip (if any) can be used on sandwiches, or with grilled lamb, pork or beef sausages. From Recipes+, May 09

From EatingWell Magazine. I used dried chiles I had on hand, which turned out to be ancho & pasilla - both a low-heat-level chile. I found the spice level perfect, but if you like spicier, use chile(s)...
I whipped these up when I wanted a change from my regular lentil burgers, they'd be nice to veganize but I find I really need the egg whites to bind them. Lately I've been like a kid fascinated with a...

I got this from a crock pot recipe book - I'll be honest I haven't tried it yet. I'm posting it here so I can try it soon and throw away the scrap of paper it's scribbled on!
This is my favorite chili as it has more of a smoke flavor rather than a lot of heat. But you can add more heat to your liking with fresh jalapeno or long red chili peppers. The chipotle pepper are what...
A regional twist on a traditional Turkish dish that's popular during Ramadan. Best place to get piyaz in Antalya: Mustafa'nin Yeri, where the tramway turns onto Ataturk Caddesi.

My grandfather served similar black-eyed peas, just after midnight, every New Year's Eve, on a leaf of fresh cabbage. I've taken his ideas, and tweaked them...just a bit.
