Cook the Book: Easy Gluten-Free Baking
Swiss cherry torte. White cake, very fluffy whipped icing and a cherry topping.
Cook the Book: '100 Best Vegetarian Recipes'
Cauliflower Gratin!
The Secret Ingredient: Smoked Salt
Easy to make yourself. Just place some salt on a cookie sheet in a grill with some soaked wood chips.
I use it in almost anything I would normally use regular salt with, even some baked items!
And want something simple but amazing? Popcorn with smoked salt. (Or corn on the cob.)
Don't think complicated. The simpler the better.

Cook the Book: 'Canal House Cooking, Vol. 1'
Very basic... homemade salsa with very fresh vegetables.
Healthy & Delicious: Cherry Lemonade
So roughly how many cherries (volume... pint, etc.) is a half pound? I'm never good at estimating weight when purchasing ingredients.
Cook the Book: 'Bobby Flay's Burgers, Fries & Shakes'
A bit of cream in the burger and provolone on top, grilled.

Swiss Cherry Torte - white cake with a frosting and cherries...
Snapshots From Italy: Hammer Your Spears
Grilled with olive oil and smoked (grill) coarse salt is amazing.
If you're not careful, the asparagus can burn before it gets to the desired texture (whatever you prefer) so I zap the bunch for 60-90 seconds first.
Salt Explained
Course salt "smoked" on a grill. Awesome in recipes are even on popcorn.
Do You Put Ranch Dressing on Pizza?
Funny... kids (middle school) where I teach just started doing the ranch dip recently. Catching on like crazy.
Dinner Tonight: Vietnamese Rice Noodle Salad
These Asian noodle salads are great during the summer, when you can use whatever veggies that you have available fresh in the markets or gardens. I've been using a recipe from Splendid Table (splendidtable.publicradio.org) that is great, as I'm sure this is.
Thin pasta is also just as excellent.

Pennsylvania Dutch cuisine
I double jonfoxx's scrapple vote, preferably with apple butter.
Maybe it's not dutch, but you better pick up some Utz potato chips.

How do you get a white trash girl to suck your d**k?

Honey-Brined and Smoked Turkey
Smoked turkey is a huge favorite of mine! Last week we made smoked turkey legs for our weekly BBQ soaked the hickory chips in beer and then finished off with a glaze of bbq sauce. A grill does just fine for a smoker, gas or charcoal.
