Frugal Side Dishes, Desserts, Plus Vegetable and Fruit Recipes
A bit of explanation: Some of the recipe titles/links in the directory below are placed in clear-cut categories. Others, however, overlap, making it trickier—fruit side dishes can also be desserts, rice and vegetables can be combined into one dish. These recipes were sorted for more ease for you, but there is no perfect method to designating a majority of them.
Some of the recipes could easily fit under a second or even third heading. Many side dishes or salads could be served as a main entrée, as can many vegan/vegetarian dishes. The recipe collections, such as those in the Fab Food Friday Fotos & Recipes section, are placed where they seemed to make the most sense, but again, could be placed under other headings because the recipe collections are comprised of a wide range of recipes in multiple categories.
Hope that makes it clearer than tapioca for you... enjoy exploring!
