Grill tortillas, until slightly charred and pliable, about 20 seconds per side. (Alternatively, wrap in a damp paper towel and heat in a microwave.) Spoon sauce on the tortilla, then top with about 2 or 3 shrimp and a sprig of cilantro. Serve 2 tacos per person, with a lime wedge on the side.

Heat a grill pan over high heat. Toss chicken for 5 minutes. (The recipe says to make sure all sides are cooked...but I don't need to tell you guys that.)

Combine cucumber, sprouts, carrots, scallions, basil, mint and sesame with sugar and vinegar mixture provided. Season salad with salt, to taste.

Warm peanut mixture for about a minute in microwave. Wisk all ingreadients together.

Toss chicken with veggies and herbs.

Lemon Chicken Pasta

2 tsp. olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
3-4 chicken breasts, cut in 1/4 inch strips
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1 cup carrots, julienned
2 cups chicken broth
8 T cream cheese
4 cups bowtie pasta, cooked (measure raw)
6 T. grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp grated lemon rind
salt and pepper to taste

Heat oil and saute garlic. Add chicken and cook until chicken is cooked through. Add peas and carrots and cook 2-3 minutes. Remove chicken mixture from pan onto a large plate. Add broth and cream cheese to your pan, cooking over medium heat until cheese melts.; stir constantly with a whisk. Add chicken mixture and cooked pasta to pan. Add Parmesan cheese, lemon rind, salt and pepper and heat through.

I like to serve this extra saucy, so watch the amount of pasta you add. I don't usually use the full 4 cups that this recipe calls for. I also sent a little extra peas and carrots, so you may want to measure, or just add what you will eat.
