    WONG FOO�S
    TEXAS CAVIAR

    3 cans of black eyed peas, drained & rinsed
    � red bell pepper, chopped
    � green bell pepper, chopped
    � of a Vidalia onion, chopped
    2 fresh jalape�os, seeded and minced
    Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
    � vinaigrette dressing (or whatever is enough to coat the vegetables)
    Chopped celery (optional)

    Mix the black eyed peas, bell pepper, onion, and jalape�os. Next, pour on enough vinaigrette to coat & toss it all together. Add salt & pepper to taste. Chill for 2-3 hours at least, but preferably overnight so that the black eyed peas absorb the vinaigrette. You may need to add a bit of additional salt and pepper before serving.

    ZIG�S
    "TOFFEE" APPLE DIP

    Several containers of soft cream cheese
    Brown sugar
    Cinnamon
    Nutmeg
    Tablespoon of vanilla extract
    Granny Smith apples

    You can also add:
    Clove
    Allspice
    Pumpkin pie spice

    Mix, by hand, cream cheese and brown sugar together in large bowl.
    Add a fair amount of cinnamon, and a little nutmeg.
    Add vanilla.
    Add other spices, to taste.
    Adjust brown sugar, to taste.

    End result should be a well-blended light brownish mixture- sweet, and cinnamony.

    Serve with sliced up Granny Smith Apples, or other firm, not-too-sweet, apple (Empires are good too). Garnish with a sprinkling of cinnamon and a couple of cinnamon sticks.

    Tip: I always put the apple slices in water and lemon juice so that they don't turn brown. Fruit fresh works really well too.

    FLEEGIX�S
    TOO TOO EASY CHEESE QUESADILLAS

    Good as an appetizer or as your whole dinner. It's like Mexican grilled cheese. Ole!

    Grated Chihuahua cheese

    Cover one tortilla with the two kinds of cheese. Put other tortilla on top. Microwave. Snip into eighths. Eat; dipping into salsa and/or sour cream while you microwave another one. Yum.

    UGLY BUT GOO-OO-OOOD SHRIMP DIP/SPREAD

    1 package cream cheese

    GROCERYGIRLIE�S
    YUMMY VEGAN SMOOTHIES

    1 c. ice
    1 banana
    � cup frozen or fresh berries
    1 fresh peach/nectarine, or frozen equivalent
    � cup Vitamite or Soy Milk
    Optional: Protein powder, Sugar or Splenda to taste

    Put all contents in a blender and blend. For a thicker smoothie, add more banana. For a thinner smoothie, add more vitamite/soy milk. This can really be done with any mixture of fruits that you want. My favorites are raspberries, nectarines, and blueberries, with the banana and the rest. Makes one or two smoothies, depending on your appetite!
