Great flavor and a hit at all the dinners we take it to. Adding a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream makes it a hit, too.” —David Goodfellow | | | |  | “I love love love Sparkling Layered Fruit Salad! Every time I make it, I change it up a little, but I can’t seem to keep enough of it in the house. The dressings are also wonderful. I used to just sprinkle my fruit salads with a little bit of sugar and let all the juices mix that way, but the different juices mixed with the sparkling water made it so much better.” —Michelle Rinde | | | |  | “Shrimp and Artichoke Frittata. I love frittatas because they’re so versatile and easy to make. This one is light yet flavorful and has been served for breakfast, brunch and dinner. Just add crusty bread or muffins and a fruit salad or a simple tossed green salad, and you have an elegant meal without a lot of fuss. I get raves every time I make this dish.” —Deborah LaMonica | | | | | | “Chicken in Coconut Curry Sauce just has to be included in your Flashback. I’ve been a life member for eight years and out of all of the recipes, this is my favorite! It’s easy to make, and the flavor is sure to please. My spouse doesn't like coconut, but he LOVES this dish so I know it’s good!” —Vanessa Rodriguez | | | |  | “My favorite recipe right now is Chocolate-Raspberry Cake. My mom and I are always cooking for each other and looking for rich desserts with superb flavor. This recipe covers both of our key points for a fantastic desert: some kind of chocolate with another great flavor to make it interesting. I make it as often as my waistline will allow!” —Denine Girvan | | | | | | “Apricot-Goat Cheese Salad. I like this striking gold apricot recipe because lush California apricots are discovered and revealed in a simple Asian-American textured salad with creative and substantial substitution ideas, including walnuts for crunch.” —Cristina Grappo | | | |  | “Bacon, Avocado and Tomato Sandwiches with Chive Mayo. With the availability of fresh vegetables and herbs at the local farmers markets, I love to make these sandwiches for my family. I also like to add different cheeses and fresh lettuce to them for variety. They’re always a hit and make an easy meal with the addition of fresh fruit.” —Martha Hong |
