It is so expensive to buy, so I've learned how to make it. And if I was able to make it, so can you!</h4>
<div>
First you have to make the sushi rice. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
You will need:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Sushi Rice </li>
<li>Rice Vinegar</li>
<li>Sugar </li>
<li>Salt </li>
<li>Vegetable Oil</li>
<li>Plastic wrap </li>
<li>Bamboo mat </li>
<li>Toasted seaweed</li>
<li>Filling (whatever you want to put inside the sushi rice) I used avocado and crab meat which is a California roll but there are many different combinations</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
Combine 3 cups of rice with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Pour into a different bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, sugar, salt, and vegetable oil and pour over the warm rice and stir it in. Let the rice cool enough so that you can handle it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Over your bamboo mat with plastic wrap so that the rice doesn't stick to it. Then place a sheet of seaweed on top of it and put a layer of rice on top of the seaweed. Next, put your filling at the end of the end seaweed, and wrap up the roll using the bamboo mat. Finally slice up the roll, starting in the middle for even pieces.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The more you do of these the better you will get, don't worry!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>

I was very happy with these tenders, they were very big and meaty compared to most tenders I've purchased in the past. Although, you may use whatever brand you prefer, and I chose the whole gain as a healthier choice. I cooked them per the instructions on the bag. Then I made of the Spicy Garlic Ranch Sauce.(See ingredients below, for a small batch of sauce) I then tossed the cooked tenders in the sauce and baked them at 400 degrees for about 5 more minutes. Then served with Ranch or Bleu Cheese, and enjoy! :)</span> </div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I can't even express what I wonderful place this is to eat! I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Lock Haven area. Not only is everything homemade and absolutely delicious, but everyone that works there is family. When you go there often, they treat you as though you are part of their family as well. Also. my favorite part of my meal at The Village Tavern is before my meal even comes out. As soon as you sit down they give the table a basket of homemade Italian bread, and a small dish of homemade peppers that are GREAT! You can purchase a quart or a pint to take home with you.</span><br />

<div style="border-image: none;">
My best friend sometimes asks me what to have for a side with salmon, or pork chops. I know its sometimes a struggle to come up with new things to have. Most people resort to a potatoes of some form, but that can get old after awhile. So I tried this last night for a side with just sandwiches.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
I had fresh broccoli left over from something else that I had made, so I boiled that until it was tender. Then I added the cooked broccoli to a box of <a href="http://www.kraftrecipes.com/Products/velveeta-hub.aspx?cm_mmc=Search-_-velveeta-_-google-_-int_brand_velveeta_velveetacom" target="_blank">Velveeta Shells & Cheese</a> and little bit of extra cheese.</div>

The Avocado</h2>
<div style="border-image: none;">
I sometimes try to work avocados into dinners and lunches. Cooking for two guys that never want to try anything new or healthy it's hard to do, it's like tricking a little kid into eating their vegetables.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
</div>
</div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
What you can put avocado in:</div>
<ul style="border-image: none;">
<li>Sandwiches</li>
<li>Salads</li>
<li>Burgers</li>
<li>Guacamole </li>
</ul>
<div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
<div style="border-image: none;">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
<div style="border-image: none;">
They have several health benefits being a super food.</div>
</div>
<ul style="border-image: none;">
<li>Promote heart health </li>
<li>Anti-Inflammatory </li>
<li>Carotenoids</li>
<li>Cardiovascular</li>
<li>Regulates blood sugar </li>
<li>Anti-Cancer benefits</li>
</ul>
<div style="border-image: none;">
<div style="border-image: none;">
How to select the right avocado at the store:</div>
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
A ready-to-eat avocado should be slightly soft, and the color should be green in color with hints of a dark purpleish/black color. Another way to tell is the top of the avocado , if you take the little stem off and it looks light green underneath then it is ripe. </div>
<br />
<br />
<div>
</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
Hours after you cut on an avocado they start to turn a yucky brown color there are several things that you can do to prevent this from happening but what I found that works the best is lemon juice. If you rub or squeeze a lemon on the avocado it will prevent it from getting brown so quickly.</div>
<br />
<br />
Preparing an avocado:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
I usually make a cut evenly the whole way around the avocado, and then twist it so it comes apart from the pit. Then I take a spoon and scoop it out away from the skin, and scoop out the pit the same way, then you can slice it however you wish to. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>

This meal was just enough to feed my teenage brother, my father, and myself. </h4>
<div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
Ingredients:</div>
</div>
<ul style="border-image: none;">
<li>2 cans of <a href="http://www.pillsbury.com/search?term=Crescent%20Recipes&nicam1=Paid_Search&nichn1=GOOGLE&nipkw1=%2Bpillsbury+%2Bcrescent+%2Brolls&niseg1=PBUS_PBUSx&nicreatID1=PBUSx" target="_blank">Original Pillsbury Crescent Rolls</a></li>
</ul>
<div style="border-image: none;">
*Listed below are the ingredients that I used, but you may use your favorite pizza/Stromboli toppings</div>
<ul style="border-image: none;">
<li>Roasted red bell peppers</li>
<li>Hot pepper rings </li>
<li>Provolone cheese </li>
<li>Ham</li>
<li>Salami </li>
<li>Pepperoni </li>
<li>Marinara sauce </li>
</ul>
<div>
</div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
Instructions: </div>
<ul style="border-image: none;">
<li>Preheat over to 375 degrees </li>
<li>Pull apart crescent rolls, but leave them in the small rectangular pieces </li>
<li>Form a circle with the pieces on a greased pizza pan (you can lay some of it out over the edge because you will be folding it up later)</li>
<li>Layer your toppings towards the middle of the circle you made with the crescent rolls</li>
<li>Then fold the ends towards the middle to cover everything up, you may need to pinch some of the seems together to keep it from coming apart</li>
<li>Bake for about 20 minutes and serve with marinara sauce</li>

This soup is very inexpensive, super simple, quick to make, and absolutely delicious!</h4>
<div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
</div>
</div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
<u>What you will need:</u></div>
<ul style="border-image: none;">
<li>2 boxes of <a href="http://www.makinglifebetter.com/microsite/detail/255845/lipton-soup-secrets" target="_blank">Lipton chicken noodle soup</a></li>
<li>1 small block of <a href="http://www.kraftrecipes.com/products/velveeta-hub.aspx" target="_blank">Velveeta cheese</a></li>
<li>Fresh vegetables:</li>
<ul style="border-image: none;">
<li>Baby Carrots </li>
<li>Cauliflower</li>
<li>Broccoli</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
</div>
</div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
I normally cook the vegetables separately, let the cheese melt on them, and then add them to the soup. You may cook the soup per the directions on the box. </div>
<div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
</div>
</div>
<div style="border-image: none;">
**Helpful Hint: Be careful not to heat the soup to a boil after adding the cheese and vegetable because it may burn or taste burnt. </div>

Pork Chops, Roasted Baked Potatoes, & Asparagus</h2>
<h4 class="separator" style="clear: both;">
What you'll need to make it:</h4>
<ul>
<li><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Pork chops </div>
</li>
<li><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Red skinned potatoes </div>
</li>
<li><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
A bundle of fresh asparagus</div>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I like to marinate my pork chops in <a href="http://www.mccormick.com/Lawrys/Flavors/Marinades/Steak--Chop" target="_blank">Lawry's Steak & Chop Marinade</a>, and then boil the potatoes whole for a few minutes until they become soft. After that I roast them in the oven at 400 degrees, lightly sprayed with olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper, and cut slits in them. I do the same exact thing with the asparagus.</div>
