And check out some of the past recipe issues while you're

How about a great dessert idea I heard come outta Martha's
kitchen a bit back that gets raves and requests for repeats
wherever it goes? Here it is...the STAINED GLASS TORTE
which I thought fitting just for the colorful Jello it uses.
This is truly a unique dessert recipe.
Enjoy!

When you're entertaining presentation is everything. Adding
that special touch known as garnish can turn the ordinary
into the extraordinary. From time to time we'll be giving
you tips to help you present like the real pros.
CUCUMBER-CARROT PINWHEELS
- whole cucumbers, unpeeled
- whole carrots, peeled
Cut cucumber in 3" lengths. Hollow out seeded middle section.
Push a carrot into the hollowed out center of the cucumber.
Slice the cucumber/carrot wheels into 1/2-inch slices. You
end up with a cucumber slice with a carrot center. Looks
very attractive as a garnish and is fat free and tasty!!
TIP: Try scoring the cucumber skin before cutting for an
even more interesting look. Run a fork lengthwise down the
cucumber skin all around the cucumber. Actually, this method
makes pretty cucumber slices with or without skin.
(perfect for veggie trays!)
