Michelle in Il Rec: Spinach Jalapeno Dip with Pita chips pointed out by Meryl

This was really good! I did not have jalapeno's; so I subbed chopped red peppers for texture and chili pepper flakes for spice. Next time, I will add some minced garlic. I liked the crunchiness of the chopped red pepper. I think chopped water chestnuts would also go well. Very forgiving recipe.

I also used store bought pita chips just because of timing. I think the cumin lemon pepper toasts would compliment it well.

Thanks Michelle for a great recipe. Thanks Meryl for pointing it out.

Happy New Year!

Traca's Rec: Rick Bayless Salsa-Baked Goat Cheese

This was too easy. I added minced garlic to the cheese; used a fancy store bought salsa and added fresh cilantro to the top. A real hit. Next time, if time allows, will definitely make the salsa.

Thanks Traca for finding a keeper!

Best,

Barb
