Gianduja Truffles with Hazelnut Centers
There's not a much better gift you can give any time of year than a box of homemade chocolate truffles. They are really easy to make, and everyone is always so impressed. This variation on the basic truffle is a little nod to the Perugina Baci. Gianduja (chocolate combined with hazelnuts) is a very Italian variety that is incredibly delicious.

Tangy Brisket With Ginger
Brisket in sweet-and-sour sauce is the Zelig of the kitchen. It takes on the character of whoever cooks it. In the early part of the 20th century, when ''The Settlement Cook Book'' reigned supreme in American Jewish households, recipes for savory briskets of beef with sauerkraut, cabbage or lima beans were the norm. As tastes became more exotic, cranberry or barbecue sauce, root beer, lemonade and even sake worked their way into recipes. Here, Coca-Cola is the secret ingredient, along with ginger. The result is sublime and the dish only improves if it's cooked a day in advance of serving it. However, you can prepare and serve it the same day, if you'd like, though you may want to use a fat separator to strain the fat from the finished sauce. Several readers commented that the original cooking time and temperature on the recipe (3 hours, including 1 hour uncovered, at 350 degrees) was inaccurate. We've retested and adjusted the recipe, so the brisket now cooks for 5 to 6 hours, covered, at 325 degrees. Please also note that this recipe is not kosher for Passover.

Scallion Dry Ramen
Practically bare naked, the scallions are completely transformed into sweet bits of caramelized umami by the frying, and believe me (for your own benefit) when I say that this is simplicity at its best.
Dukkah Dusted Lavash Crackers
I came up with the idea for these when I was making pita chips for a large party a few years back. Splitting the pitas and then brushing with olive oil just seemed to take forever. I was asked to make the same appetizer a week later, so when I was in the store looking at the pita and thinking how "pita" described perfectly what it's like making pita chips for 30, I noticed the lavash right next to them. Inspiration struck, I came up with this much easier alternative, and I haven't made a pita chip since. I like using my own dukkah blend, or za'atar made with fresh thyme, or a bit of both. These bake up best on a preheated baking stone in a screaming hot oven, so I typically make these right before or right after making pizza or artisanal bread. If I'm not interrupted and can get a good rhythm going, I can cut and prepare one lavash while another is baking in the oven (2-3 minutes), so a big batch using 6 lavash takes less than a half an hour to prep and bake. I hope you like these. ;o)

Chicken Salad Stuffed Avocados
In my eyes anything with avocados is a WIN. Don't know what to do about leftovers, stuff it in an avocado, you can't go wrong :) This is an extremely versatile recipe, any leftovers would go GREAT!! Leftover chili? Can of tuna sitting in your pantry? Leftover salad or slaw? Leftover chicken --> chicken salad stuffed avocados. Add some Sriracha to give it a "kick" and you're in for a protein-packed treat! Made with greek yogurt, no mayo, no oil, but lots of great seasoning. The chicken salad included leftover organic roasted chicken I had done the Sunday night before. Feel free to adjust the ingredients, add more veggies, add more spices, add salsa & black beans for a tex-mex version! Endless possibilities! The PICTURE reflects my simple chicken salad made with a greek yogurt dressing, celery, roasted shallots and raisins.
