    Tomatoey Parmesan Beans

    Tomatoey Parmesan Beans

    This sleeper hit of a weeknight dinner comes from Food Network star Molly Yeh's cookbook Home is Where the Eggs Are—and is basically a vehicle for Parmesan and garlic toast. No complaints! (The alternate version, with ham and cream, is excellent too.)

Shrimp-and-Tilapia Ceviche

Shrimp and Tilapia Ceviche

Prepare this true Latin American ceviche (seh-VEESH)--raw fish and seafood marinated in acidic citrus juices until it turns opaque. Cook the shrimp and fish in boiling water for a minute (to avoid any problems with using fish that's not perfectly fresh) cool it, and marinate in the original citrus juices, coconut milk, and tequila.Shrimp-and-Tilapia Ceviche

Amazing Creme Caramel

Amazing Creme Caramel

Here's our version of a Latin dessert specialty known as flan. We steeped citrus peel and cinnamon with the milk to add flavor. The caramelized sugar you put on the bottom turns into a caramelly sauce when turned out. Serve with raspberry or chocolate sauce, or all by itself. This soothing, sweet custard pudding looks complicated, but goes together with surprising ease.Amazing Creme Caramel

Coconut Ice Cream with Grilled Pineapple

Coconut Ice Cream with Grilled Pineapple

Coconut and ice cream is an irresistible combination in Latino cooking. In this recipe we've toasted the coconut that's folded into the rich ice cream and finished off the creamy dessert with the best of the tropics: grilled pineapple and other fresh fruits. Use purchased coconut milk, or make your own by cooking milk and unsweetened coconut, then letting it steep.Coconut Ice Cream with Grilled Pineapple
