I was introduced to fry bread at a Pow Wow in CA while dating a native American young man in college; Pow Wows were wonderful community experiences. And the food was great! This bread (tho not that healthy!) can be served simply with honey atop, or serves as a great receptacle to create Navajo tacos. (Make ’em big enough to accept your fillings! See “Cilantro Rice”— THE best base for a Fry Bread Taco!)

A simple dressing to create a fresh Greek salad. A little Salanova salad mix, a pile of sliced or cubed cucumbers, a handful of kalmata olives and toss with some oregano and lemon dressing. Perfecto! (ok, maybe that’s Italian…)

Orzo is a small pasta, shaped a bit like rice. It is a wonderful base for a salad, used as a side dish or added to soup. Here it is partnered up with wonderful colors and crunch with a lemon-y zing provided by the lemon basil.

Parsley gives it the “green” and the “fresh” and the olives and garlic give it the punch.
Use as a pate-like recipe to top fresh veggie finger-food, or as a bright flavoring for a simply prepared protein.
