Pistachio-Basil Spread

It’s a high claim but…you can never go wrong with pesto.  This exceptionally flavorful version uses pistachios instead of pine nuts and tastes incredible with crackers as an appetizer, tossed together with pasta, spread on sandwiches and burgers, and even between layers of lasagnas or casseroles.

Butternut Squash Soup

Readily available during the winter months, this starchy vegetable makes a great soup.

Roasted Herb Potatoes

A little roasting goes a long way, especially when you have the perfect combination of waxy red potatoes and herbs.  Don’t limit these to only breakfast; they’d make a perfectly decent side dish to any of our main recipes.

Gallo Pinto

This simple but appetizing dish is usually eaten for breakfast in both Costa Rica and Nicaragua, although it is also served at other times of the day. It can be done with black or red beans. It is usually accompanied with corn tortillas or male bananas if desired, but for a more balanced meal for diabetics, we recommend accompanying it with a steamed salad or vegetables.
