Really interesting recipes

Homemade Oreos with Chocolate Beer Ganache have a a comfort food meets a little extra decadence.

First of all, food that is easy to grab without a plate and utensils as you pass the food table is always the most popular. And second, if the food is small, it's easier to try everything on the table!

Yes, the idea of grilling avocado seems really weird. But trust me: it's worth the risk. This "guacamole" is a warm, herby, cheesy spread that will make you think of avocados in a whole new light. Great for a backyard BBQ.

The assembled bo ssäm was an insane marriage of umami and acid, creaminess and crunch, sweetness and salt. My sister called me a “genius” for the overall success of the dish.

My favorite potato tacos are nothing more than plain mashed potatoes stuffed into a tortilla and then fried... It's all about how the crispy tortillas give way to the creamy potatoes. The thin guacamole and lettuce are just icing on the cake...

The recipe serves four in typical circumstances. Under certain conditions, however, it serves one. And that is all I plan to say about that.

This recipe really doesn't need an explanation. It's absolutely amazing and you will not have leftovers. The reason why they are soo crunchy is that the coating of browned Romano cheese on top made them that way.

A quick and easy recipe for those tacos that have become a favorite in Southern California: Fish Tacos.

Hummus is great on it’s own, but when it’s topped with feta, roasted red peppers, artichokes and kalamata olives it is downright delicious. (It would also be a good way to serve hummus with a non-believer crowd.

Crunchy on the outside, warm and creamy on the inside. I was shocked. They were so incredibly delicious, but I had never heard of them before and for some reason the thought of deep-frying avocados had never crossed my mind.

There aren’t very many recipes that can boast “2 ingredients” and taste better than these ribs smothered in sweet, sticky Thai chili sauce, which by the way, isn’t really all that spicy. 5-minutes hands-on and two ingredients...

These ribs are meltingly tender as a result of the brining and slow poaching processes specified here. They are also a snap for the host, because they are fully cooked ahead, thus requiring only a brief period on the grill before serving.

I love this fava bean crostini, for it is just the right amount.

I have a dangerous addiction to chicken wings- they are my guilty pleasure. After a chicken is butchered, I stash the wings for a latenight hunger pang. I find nothing wrong with deep-frying and tossing the wings with any number of sauces.

These are the classic magic bars my mom used to make with a recipe she got from a can of condensed milk (I think it was Borden’s brand)... But I’ll warn you — they’re very sweet.

Of the 43 recipes in draft, this is the one that I chose, Virginia Willis’ Cola-Glazed Baked Wings...
So far, Cola Glazed Baked Wings and Dirty Rice have each been made and ravenously consumed by my family.

These electric orange sandwiches elevate the traditional grilled cheese by way of a new take on an old Southern favorite: pimento cheese.
