  • 1 plum tomato, diced
  • 1 cup black beans, rinsed
  • 1 cup fresh corn kernels, (about 2 ears)
  • 2 tablespoons cornmeal
  • 1 pound prepared whole-wheat pizza dough
  • 1/3 cup barbecue sauce (Russian River Fine Foods Smokey BBQ Sauce)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella, preferably smoked mozzarella
Preparation
  1. Preheat grill to medium.
  2. Combine tomato, beans and corn in a medium bowl. Sprinkle cornmeal onto a large baking sheet. Stretch the dough into about a 12-inch circle and lay it on top of the cornmeal, coating the entire underside of the dough.
  3. Transfer the crust from the baking sheet to the grill. Close the lid and cook until the crust is puffed and lightly browned on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes.
  4. Using a large spatula, flip the crust. Spread barbecue sauce on it and quickly sprinkle with the tomato mixture and cheese. Close the lid; grill until the cheese is melted and the bottom of the crust is browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
 
  • 1/2 cup BBQ Sauce (Russian River Fine Foods Smokey BBQ Sauce), divided
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast, very thinly sliced crosswise
  • 5 whole wheat pita bread (Middle East Baking Company Carb Watch Whole Wheat Pita Bread)
  • 5 slices provolone cheese (Marin Cheese Company Provolone Slices)
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste
Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 500°F.
  2. Place bell pepper, onion, garlic, and 2 Tbs. of the BBQ sauce in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add chicken and cook another 5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through. Season with pepper.
  3. Place pitas on a baking sheet and top each with an equal portion of the remaining BBQ sauce, and the chicken and vegetable mixture. Top each pita with a slice of cheese. Bake until the cheese melts and turns golden, 10 to 12 minutes.

We only eat meat 1-2 times a week and when we do, this is a favorite.  This dish is light, yet filling, and goes well with broccoli and brown rice (Lundberg Farms Eco-Farmed CA Brown Basmati Rice) on the side.
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce (San-J Organic Tamari Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (honey is a good substitute for sugar)
  • 1 large clove garlic, peeled and finely grated or minced
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger (The Ginger People Pantry Essentials Organic Minced Ginger)
  • 1 fresh red Thai chile or cayenne chile pepper, stemmed, seeded and minced
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil (Eden Organic Toasted Sesame Oil)
  • 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat and cut into 1-inch-thick medallions
Preparation
  1. Whisk soy sauce and sugar/honey in a medium bowl until the sugar/honey is completely dissolved. Stir in garlic, ginger, chile and oil.
  2. Place pork in a resealable plastic bag. Add the marinade and seal the bag, squeezing air out. Turn the bag to coat the medallions. Refrigerate for 2 hours, turning the bag once to redistribute the marinade.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium. Remove the pork from the marinade. (Discard marinade.) Grill the medallions until just cooked through, 5-8 minutes per side.
