Canned Corn

The toasted coconut milk solids, called latik, are the secret to this traditional Filipino dessert pudding. 

A mixture of exotic canned and fresh fruits combine with condensed milk and sour cream in a Filipino version of fruit salad. 

Only four ingredients plus garnish and you have a savory soup that's perfect for a fall or winter supper or brunch starter. If you wish, use the canned Mexicorn®, with bits of red and green pepper. You can also use frozen corn kernels and cook them in the microwave according to packaged directions. If you wish, chop a quarter cup of any of the fresh herbs suggested, to stir in just before serving. Avocado adds wonderful flavor and richness to the creamy soup, and there are only 200 calories per satisfying serving.

Also known as 'cowboy caviar', this twist on traditional salsa is enlivened with black beans, corn and black-eyed peas. 

This is a hearty and relatively low-fat chili recipe that is guaranteed to satisfy even the most sadistic spicy food lover...REAL MAN FOOD.
