Baked Egg and Avocado Soft Tacos

I'm pretty sure I got the idea for this dish from the Ideas in Foog Blog, but I can no longer find the specific link. The idea behind this preparation is to bake the egg in the avocado, resulting in a gooey mess of soft avocado and runny yolk. They are best eaten with some type of bread. Because of the mild flavors of the egg and avocado, you can achieve a lot of different presentations by varying the bread and condiments.

Tandoori Chicken

To properly make tandoori chicken, you need a special oven called a tandoor, from which the dish takes its name. Fortunately, it turns out pretty well on a grill, and now that it's summer, it's a perfect time to make it. The yogurt coating simultaneously adds flavor and keeps the chicken moist, which can be hard to do.  You can bring it to a cookout, letting it marinate on the way, and everyone will be asking "Who brought the orange chicken?" and "Is there any more?"

Roasted Pork Belly

Pork belly is the part of the pig that bacon is made from. Because of the high amount of fat, it is a perfect cut for slow roasting. The crispy skin is an added bonus.

Thai(ish) Pork Kebabs

This dish is one I like to make when I find quality ground pork. Because it's winter, I pan-fried it, but I usually make these on the grill (and on sticks). Pork has a wonderful taste on its own, and in this dish it is complemented by southeast Asian flavors.

Baby Bok Choy with Sausage

One of the things I like about good Asian grocery stores is that they have a wide variety of green vegetables. Baby bok choy is one of my favorites - it grills well and also works in stir fries like this one.  I like simple protein/vegetable/grain combinations, because they encourage healthy eating while also being filling and tasting good and fast and easy to cook.
