Hawaiian Beets

I happen to like beets, but many in my circle of friends don’t, so I usually keep this recipe just for myself & a few guests who don’t mind a taste-experiment! It comes from the 1967 ‘so good with FRUIT’ cookbook from Better Homes and Gardens.

Chicken, Mango, and Rice Salad

This is an awesome summer salad. The mix of the ingredients may seem odd, but I promise you everyone I have served it to has loved it. Hopefully you will, too. The Mango gives just enough sweetness to the dish, and the many textures and flavors work well together. You may adjust the amounts to your liking. I tend to like more fruit and cilantro with less rice.

Nif’s Grilled Hawaiian Chicken Skewers

This is a dish that I made up as I went along! It’s easy and uses ingredients that most of us have on hand. There is probably enough marinade for twice the amount of chicken. I wasn’t going to have a chance to stir the chicken so I wanted to make sure that it covered all of the chicken. I served this over brown basmati rice. The marinating time is not included. ****NOTE: I do not recommend marinating this for more than 2 hours. I find it gets a grainy texture if marinated too long. Enjoy!

Hawaiian Coleslaw

I love to serve this unusual and sweet coleslaw in fresh pineapple halves for individual servings at a dinner party. It’s also a hit at a large gathering just put in a big bowl and garnished with greens.
