Pumpkin Cheddar Muffins
Asian Hot and Sour Slaw
Some cooks may consider it cheating, but I have no qualms about using the shredded slaw mixes and shredded carrots in supermarket produce sections. They are particularly useful for preparing vegetable side dishes that complement all types of grilled and barbecued dishes.
