Caribbean Shrimp Salad with Lime Vinaigrette
"I wanted to create a recipe for a festive meal with local ingredients that could be prepared ahead of time and assembled
at the last minute. Everything except the avocado, because it turns brown, can be readied in advance and kept in separate
containers, covered, and chilled. I like to serve this dinner salad with multigrain rolls."

Korean-Spiced Beef and Cabbage Rolls
"I am originally from Nebraska; one of my favorite places to eat is a small chain of sandwich restaurants called Runza. They
are famous for their pillowlike beef and cabbage sandwiches. Since my husband is Korean, I created these pairing the traditional
filling ingredients and flavors from his culture. These make a great snack."

Carrot Cake with Toasted Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting
"I grind oats with flour in a food processor to make this cake more nutritious, and use only ¼ cup canola oil and pureed baby food carrots to make it moist. This cake keeps for up to three days in the refrigerator and
also freezes well."
-Christine Dohlmar, Valrico, Florida

Oatmeal Knots
"I am continually looking for ways to incorporate more omega-3s and whole wheat into my diet. Making yeast breads has always
been an important tradition in my family, and I enjoy working with more nutrient-rich ingredients for this part of our meal."
-Melissa Hinrichs, Omaha, Nebraska
