	Skinny Butter Chicken or Lactose Free Butter Chicken using SpiceWorks All-in-One Butter Chicken Mix or Butter Sauce Mix A 'lighter' way to Butter Chicken Skinny: Follow the directions on the package, but for a lower calorie sauce, instead of cream use a mixture of half plain yogurt and half water. Mix them well, then use it in place of whipping cream when making the sauce. Remember to stir constantly when simmering so the sauce won't separate. Hint: For a smoother texture, add just 1 or 2 Tbs cream to sauce at the end. Lactose Free: Simply substitute soy-based coffee creamer (e.g. "So Nice" brand); we've tested this, and it turns out great. Serve with Basmati rice and Naan bread.
	Tasty Tandoori Wrap using SpiceWorks Tandoori Marinade Mix A quick and easy lunch or light dinner. Prepare and bake (or barbeque) chicken using SpiceWorks Tandoori Marinade as directed. Cut the chicken into cubes. Warm a pita wrap, add chicken cubes, shredded lettuce, diced cucumber and tomato. Top the wrap with 2 tbsp tzatziki. Fold the pita wrap (use foil for easy holding). Enjoy!
	Caribbean Chicken Wrap (Roti Wrap) using SpiceWorks Mango Curry Dip Seasoning Mix A delicious authentic caribbean wrap with chicken & potato filling.

Add 1/2 tsp cumin seeds (optional), let them roast for about 1/2 minute. Add diced potatoes and 1 Tbs of Mango Curry Mix. Mix together and let simmer for 5 minutes (slight crust on bottom). Add chicken, mix together, then add 2/3 cup water, mix while scraping bottom. Add 1 more Tbs of Mango Curry Mix, let it come to boil, and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally, adding more water (1/3 cup) if needed, for thick consistancy. Warm up some soft tortillas, spoon mixture in middle, and fold to make a wrap. Delicious.
	Mango Coconut Curry using SpiceWorks Coconut Curry Sauce Mix Prepare the Coconut Curry Sauce as per package directions, but substitute the cream with coconut milk. When simmering at the end add 2 tbsp sweet mango chutney. It brings out the coconut flavor, while adding a sweet & tasty edge. Especially good when making chicken curry or prawn curry. Serve with Jasmine rice. Optionally, add some sliced red and green peppers to the meat when stir-frying it, before adding the sauce.
	Lamb Popsicles using All-in-One Butter Chicken Mix You’ve heard about them, now prepare these savory appetizers at home quick & easy. Use a full frenched Rack of Lamb, cut into 1 ½ inch chops Preparation: French the racks if not already done (i.e. remove & scrape the fat from the bones). Cut the rack into 1 ½ inch chops (2-rib pieces) Sprinkle the chops with SpiceWorks Chili Marinade (seasoning packet from the all-in-one package), and rub it in with a bit of oil. Leave the marinated chops in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours. Prepare the Butter Sauce in a saucepan as per the package directions. In a pre-heated skillet, pour in the sauce mixture and heat till it thickens. In a second very hot skillet sear the chops 1 ½ minutes per side (for medium rare). Transfer the seared chops to a warmed plate. Pour the sauce over the chops, and serve with your favorite vegetables.
	Best BBQ Chicken Ever using SpiceWorks Peri Peri Marinade Mix Peri Peri has become our favorite marinade, especially on chicken or pork chops. Prepare SpiceWorks Peri Peri marinade as directed, adding only oil and water. Place a half (or whole) chicken, skin on, in a clear plastic bag. Pour in the marinade, shake it up, and seal the bag. If you have one of those food-saver vacuum sealers, do it that way. Place in the fridge to marinate, preferably overnight. Pre-heat your BBQ to high, then turn off the center burner (if you have 3). Take the chicken out of the bag, and put it on the grill in the middle, so you can cook with indirect heat. We prefer to put the meat on a small metal cooking sheet; it stops the flame-ups, and the chicken comes out very tender and moist. A rotisserie works great on a whole chicken. Let it bake for about 3/4 to 1 hour (or longer), without turning, till it is fully cooked. If desired, you can sear it at the end over the high heat for a nice crispy skin. This is absolutely delicious, served with a nice salad (and a cold beer!)
