Cook's Challenge!

There you go with the canteloupe again.

I will think about this...and be back

I do these several months ahead, Tina, sometimes the same thing is close together with the recipes that get made :)

Thanks, Elaine.

Garbanzo beans, cream cheese and rye bread

Make hummus by placing the garbanzo beans into the food processor with the tahini, blend until smooth and drizzle in the oil (olive oil) until a spreadable consistancy. Cut the corn tortillas into triangles and slow bake in the oven until crisp, serve with hummus.

I'm combining the tahini, horseradish, diced maters, chopped peppers and onion and making a salsa type dip to go with the tortilla chips. The salmon will be served with a touch of the tahini and horseradish that was combined and set aside before the rest was turned into salsa. The cantalope will be slice and eaten plain as dessert. Quick and easy.

Ooops...too soon. Chop the smoked salmon and mix with cream cheese and a small amount of horseradish, spread on rye.

I'm screwing this up...the cantelope is to be cut into cubes, and served on the side.

Sue has my vote!

Extra ingredients: Walnuts, raw spinach leaves, sugar-free vanilla yogurt

Menu: Smoked Salmon Rolls with Horseradish Tahini and fresh Canteloupe


In a blender, combine walnuts, tahini, horseradish, a dash of salt and pepper, a drizzle of oil and just enough water (teaspoon or so) to thin the mix. Blend well.

Spread each tortilla with the horseradish tahini, layer with spinach leaves and salmon, roll lightly and secure on a cookie sheet seam side down. Pop in the oven for approximately 3-4 minutes at 350 degrees.

Cut the canteloupe into bite sized pieces. Serve with yogurt on the side.

LOL! Thanks, Jeffy!

Oh, these ALL sound so good!

good luck everyone... not quite sure what I would make of this.

WOW! John! ... sounds delicious. I'm so hungry for salmon AND cantalope.

Thanks, CnA!

I have a few on here that I really like, Marianne. And I don't even like smoked salmon.

Some neat ideas expressed here! Sending a 10 your way!

Thanks, Curt!

What is tahini?....Lol....I would even print how it sounds to me.Lol. To funny!

I mean I wouldn't even print...sorry for the typo.

Ground sesame seeds, Sandy. They are chiefly used to make hummus or tahini sauce.

These are some interesting recipies; I like Tina B.'s

She always rawks it, Kylee :)

John, that actually sounds pretty good.

It's sad that I wouldnt' eat anything I created today. LOL

I don't care for smoked salmon OR canteloupe, but the rest of you would eat well. :)

What a great challenge. I would probably make a salmon soft taco with a cantelope salsa

This is one strange combination. I don't know how good smoked salmon and tahini would go together. The horseradish might be ok with it. The cantaloupe is definitely dessert.

So if I was going to make a meal with these 5 this is how it would go -

Mix some horseradish into the tahini. Smear it on the tortillas, top with the salmon, roll up. Heat it a bit. Serve with chunks of cantaloupe.

Yummy, Missy!

Easy enough, Risa!
