Sweet ‘Tater Spirals
INGREDIENTS 1 large Sweet Potato (organic, if possible) 1 cup Peanut Butter Orange Juice, 1/4 cup + 3 tbsp Cinnamon, sprinkle Spiraler (this makes it fun!)
Scrub and cut any “odd” spots out of one large sweet potato. Leave skin on. In a mixing bowl, shred the potato using the spiraler (or a grater with large holes). Add 3 Tbsp of orange juice and mix well. Sprinkle with cinnamon. In a small bowl, mix 1 cup peanut butter with 1/4 cup orange juice until creamy. Add to the sweet potatoes, mix well and serve as a side dish OR on a bed of greens OR in a cabbage leaf as a crunchy snack.

Here's a recipe from a gardening class that I took at Texas A&M - credit should go to Dr. Novak and his sources.
Hilltop's Boursin Cheese
1 lb. cream cheese, softened
1/2 lb. butter or margarine, soften (not melted)
1 tsp. mashed garlic
1.5 tbs. chopped sweet marjoram
1.5 tbs. chopped chives
1 tbs. chopped basil
1 tbs. chopped English/French thyme
1 tbs. chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. fresh ground white pepper.
also sprig of rosemary, sage, or oregano... etc. (almost anything you're interested in).
Beat cheese & butter together
add garlic & mix
add herbs, salt, pepper & mix
(Can freeze & slice as needed - wrap in plastic wrap first.)
Serves 12
