THE MOROCCAN PITA SANDWICH (ZWT-9)
Found at the biggirlssmallkitchen website, this easy-fix & sure-to-be-tasty sandwich was featured by Kelsey Brown in a "Brown Baggin' It" article primarily directed at college students & the working masses who dine in "Break Rooms" more often than not. Kelsey said: "Make your fellow students or co-workers jealous when they're unwrapping their frozen "diet" entrées & you whip out this fresh, light & flavorful Moroccan Chicken Salad Sandwich in Pita Bread." Do not be intimidated by what may appear to be a complex set of ingredients. The ingredients are simple & the rest is a matter of spicing. Ingredient prep & assembly time was estimated. There was no cook time since the recipe begins w/pre-cooked chicken. Enjoy!

COCONUT SAUCE (CAMBODIAN FOR ZWT-9)
Found at a cooking-by-country website, this recipe was entered to accompany another Cambodian recipe I entered titled "Khmer Sweet Corn Pudding", but I foresee its uses being expanded to include more typical rice &/or bread puddings as well. The recipe did not specify the # of servings, so I opted to allow an average of 1.5 ounce servings = 10 servings. Enjoy!

FISH COUSCOUS W/ONION T'FAYA (ZWT-9 - MOROCCO)
Entered for ZWT-9, this is the last of 3 recipes from an article at the Eating Well website titled "Healthy Couscous Recipes". Per the recipe intro: "T'fayas are special-occasion dishes served all along Morocco's Atlantic coast & they are known for their thick, sweet & heavily-spiced sauces. This sauce gets a pleasant layer of sweetness from raisins & a touch of sugar, which marry perfectly w/halibut." - Do not be intimidated by the visually long ingredient list. It is mostly spicing & other common ingredients. Prep & Cook times were shown as an identical total, but I have allowed an extra 10 min for ingredient assembly & Prep Step 1. Enjoy!

THAI ICED TEA (ZWT-9)
There are several recipes in the data base for Thai Iced Tea, but none like this one. Nancie McDermott was credited for this recipe found at "Quick & Easy Thai: 70 Everyday Recipes". From her intro: "Sold in 1 lb cellophane-wrapped packets in Asian markets, this finely chopped black tea is spiced w/cinnamon, star anise & vanilla, & then tinged w/a bit of food coloring to create its gorgeous terra-cotta hue. Like Thai coffee, Thai tea is traditionally sweetened well w/sugar as it brews & crowned w/a generous splash of evaporated milk or half-&-half just before serving. You can brew Thai tea in a teapot, drip coffeemaker or French press (making it very strong & adding sugar while the tea is still very hot). Time has been estimated & does not include cool & chill time. Enjoy!

TANGLED THAI SALAD FOR ZWT-9
FRESH is a sml chain of Canadian-owned & operated restaurants, which originally began as a juice bar 20 yrs ago. Everything on their menu is vegan, altho they offer some vegetarian dishes at their takeout counter. They have published 3 cookbooks described as "for those relatively comfortable w/cooking (particularly vegan cooking)" & "with restaurant quality pretty much guaranteed". This recipe is FRESH's famous Tangled Thai Salad - 1 of their MOST requested recipes. FRESH uses a "spiralizer" to cut the carrot & yellow beets into super-long, thin strands that form a big round tangle of a salad, but a julienne peeler will give you nice long strands as well. If you have no spiralizer or julienne peeler, just cut the veggies into sticks as thin & long as you can. Said to serve "1 person as a complete meal", it also serves 2-3 as a side-salad. FRESH uses their "Salad Topper" w/this Thai salad, but I saw it as optional & have entered it as a separate recipe. This is a no-cook recipe & I have allowed 20 min for ingredient prep plus assembly. Enjoy!

MOROCCAN SKIRT STEAK W/ROASTED PEPPER COUSCOUS (ZWT-9)
Entered for ZWT-9, this is the 2nd of 3 recipes from an article at the Eating Well website titled "Healthy Couscous Recipes". Per the recipe intro: "Thin cuts of beef (such as skirt steak or sirloin steak) cook very quickly when seared in a hot skillet -- Just right for a busy weeknight. We love how the spicy Moroccan flavors of the steak compliment the sweet, roasted pepper-studded couscous. Serve w/an Arugula salad & a glass of Pinot Noir." Prep & Cook times were noted as an identical total, but I have allowed an extra 10 min for ingredient assembly. Enjoy!

Pour into a sml saucepan & add the lemon zest, 1 tsp of the spice mixture & 1 tsp olive oil. Bring to a boil. Stir in couscous, cover, remove from heat & let stand.

Cook the steak 2 to 3 min per side for med-rare. Let rest on the cutting board for 5 minute Stir olives & the peppers into the couscous. Thinly slice the steak & serve w/the couscous & lemon wedges as desired.
SALAD TOPPER BY FRESH - USE W/TANGLED THAI SALAD - ZWT-9
FRESH is a sml chain of Canadian-owned & operated restaurants, which originally began as a juice bar 20 yrs ago. Everything on their menu is vegan, altho they offer some vegetarian dishes at their takeout counter. 1 of their MOST requested recipes is their Tangled Thai Salad (recipe entered by me) & FRESH uses this "Salad Topper" w/the Tangled Thai Salad. Per the recipe intro: "This crunchy mix adds great flavor & texture to any salad. If you want to use it as a topper for fruit salad, yogurt or oatmeal - Leave the salt out & replace it with sugar. If you can't find puffed quinoa at your local health food store, you can sub puffed millet. This recipe makes 1 3/4 cups & the mixture keeps for months in an airtight container." Altho used w/the Tangled Thai Salad, the intro suggested a wider variety of uses & I saw it as an optional add to the Tangled Thai Salad. SO I decided to enter it as a separate recipe. Enjoy!
