General Tso's Baked Beans

Courtesy of another unofficial collection of recipes... I was dubious until I tried it. Absolutely fantastic stuff.

4 cans White Kidney Beans
2 jars General Tso's Sauce
1 pkg. Pancetta or chopped bacon
1 chopped onion

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Saute pancetta and onion until browned. Mix with undrained beans and sauce in greased 9x13 casserole dish. Cover and bake for about an hour. Add more sauce or liquid if beans start to look dry while cooking. Serves 6-8.

Cucumber Wontons with Black Pepper Yogurt Sauce

A spicy vegetarian Greek-Asian fusion appetizer.

1 bag frozen Cucumber Wontons
1 Tbsp. Toasted Sesame Oil
1 Tbsp. Black Pepper Sauce
1 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
2 cups Greek Yogurt
1 sliced Hothouse Cucumber

Stirfry wontons in sesame oil, place on cucumber slices. Mix pepper sauce, soy sauce, and yogurt and dollop on wontons. Serves 4. Sauce is also good as salad dressing, in gyros, or as a vegetable dip.
