Asparagus Stir-fry For Spring!
In some areas, the first early crops of asparagus are being harvested. Fresh asparagus turns out tender but still crisp, coated with a flavorful oyster sauce in this quick and easy asparagus stir-fry. It has been reader-rated at 5 out of 5 stars.

Garlic Scallops
Another seafood recipe for Lent! - Succulent sea scallops are seared and then simmered with sweet red bell pepper in a garlicky sauce.

Stuffed Green Peppers Two Ways
First, this quick and easy recipe (less than 30 minutes to make) replaces the ground beef and tomato sauce traditionally found in stuffed green pepppers with ground pork and Chinese seasonings. This second recipe for Stuffed Peppers would make a healthy appetizer. Instead of removing the tops, the peppers are cut into small pieces, stuffed with a shrimp filling and then either steamed or pan-fried. Instead of baking, the pork mixture is pan-fried and stuffed onto the blanched bell peppers. This shortens the cooking time considerably - the entire recipe, from seasoning the pork to stuffing the peppers, take less than 30 minutes to make.

How to Cook Rice
I was flattered when a reader wrote a poem about how much she enjoyed my recipe for cooked rice! Here are my step by step instructions, with photos, showing how to cook rice that will turn out light and fluffy every time.
