September 16 – National Guacamole Day
The unofficial holiday celebrates the delicious Mexican side-dish or dip made of avocados.

Usually eaten as a side-dish, guacamole has been a part of traditional Mexican cuisine since the time of the Aztecs. Today, the dip, whose name comes from an Aztec dialect Nahuatl and means guacamole sauce, is a popular side-dish, salad addition and party dip all around the world.
Traditionally, the dish is made by mashing avocados in a mortar and pestle and adding chopped onions, tomatoes, garlic, lemon juice and cumin to it.
Guacamole is informally called guac in the United States and Canada.
Avocados are fruit native to Mexico and Central America and are considered to be a good source for Vitamin K and some types of vitamin B.

September 15 - National Linguine Day

Linguine, which means “little tongues” in Italian, has an ancient lineage among pasta. Along with its cousin, fettuccine, the signature linguine shape started appearing in bowls across Italy’s Liguria region almost 400 years ago.
Linguine goes well with pesto and seafood, breaking the monotony of the customary red and meat-based sauces. For an easy meal, cook some fresh linguine in salted water until the pasta is al dente. Drain, then add extra virgin olive oil and top off with fresh basil and parmesan or pecorino cheese. Yes, it’s all carbs but it’s also all good! So, today, get your twirl on but make sure you’ve got your napkin handy.

Bacon, Linguini & Tomato Toss

The ‘L” stands for linguini in this guest-worthy spin on the classic BLT sandwich.

Ingredients
12 slices bacon, divided
4 cups (1 L) chicken broth
2 cans (14.5 oz each) Italian-style diced tomatoes (3 1/2 cups/875 mL)
1 medium onion
4 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2 tsp (2 mL) crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
12 oz (350 g) uncooked linguini pasta
1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt
1 cup (250 mL) loosely packed fresh parsley, divided
4 oz (125 g) cream cheese
1 oz (30 g) Parmesan cheese, grated
Halved grape tomatoes (optional)
Directions
Slice bacon crosswise into 1/4-in. (6-mm) strips using Santoku Knife. Place into (12-in./30-cm) Skillet; cook over medium-high heat 8-9 minutes or until crisp. Remove bacon from Skillet; drain on paper towels. Drain Skillet, leaving 1 tbsp (15 mL) drippings in Skillet.

Meanwhile, place broth and diced tomatoes in Large Micro-Cooker®. Microwave, covered, on HIGH 6-8 minutes or until hot; carefully remove from microwave. On clean Cutting Board, finely chop onion using Food Chopper. Return Skillet to heat; add garlic pressed with Garlic Press and pepper flakes, if desired. Cook 10-20 seconds or until fragrant. Add onion; cook 2-3 minutes or until onion is tender. Carefully add broth mixture, pasta, half of the bacon and salt. Simmer, covered, 9-10 minutes or until pasta is almost cooked but still firm, stirring occasionally.

Finely chop parsley using Chef's Knife; reserve 1 tbsp (15 mL) for garnish. Cut cream cheese into cubes. Grate Parmesan cheese using Rotary Grater. Cut grape tomatoes in half, if using. Remove Skillet from heat. Stir in remaining parsley, cream cheese and grape tomatoes, if desired. Let stand, covered, 5 minutes or until pasta is tender and sauce is thickened. Serve with remaining bacon, Parmesan cheese and reserved parsley.

September 14 - National Eat a Hoagie Day

The hoagie consists of meats, cheeses, vegetables, sauces, and seasonings on a long roll of Italian or French bread.

However, the origin of this giant sandwich is a bit of a mystery. The epicenter of the controversy seems to be eastern Pennsylvania between the DiCostanzas and DePalma's. Both lay claim to being the first to make the hoagie. One family claims to have been making the sandwich since 1923 and the other since 1925. But who has the proof?

Another story from the Philadelphia area takes place during World War I. It describes shipyard workers bringing large Italian sandwiches to work wrapped in newspaper. The large sandwiches helped the workers through their long, grueling workdays. In fact, the workers nicknamed the massive sandwiches "hoggies" because anyone eating them at one sitting would have to be a hog. The Philadelphia accent explains the transformation of the word. The dialect often exaggerates the vowel sounds changing "hoggies" to "hoagies" quite easily.

One story talks out of school - almost literally. At one time, if a kid skipped school it was called being "on the hook" or "playing hokey." A "hokey" sandwich could be bought for a price a kid on the lam could afford. Eventually "hokey" became "hoagie" especially if the kids were skipping school.

Using pickle juice is a classic trick when making Southern fried chicken, but it works great as a marinade for steak and pork too.

Ingredients
Chicken
2 tbsp (30 mL) pickle juice
1 tbsp (15 mL) chili powder
1 tbsp (15 mL) brown sugar
1 tsp (5 mL) cayenne pepper
1 tsp (5 mL) paprika
½ tsp (2 mL) salt
1 lb (450 g) chicken tenderloins
Coleslaw
1 lemon
½ cup (125 mL) low-fat mayonnaise
1 tbsp (15 mL) sugar
⅛ tsp (0.5 mL) black pepper
2 cups (500 mL) prepared shredded coleslaw mix
4 hoagie or sandwich rolls, split open
4 dill pickle spears
Directions
Combine the pickle juice, chili powder, brown sugar, cayenne, paprika, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the chicken tenders to the bowl and let them sit, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 5 minutes, or up to 30 minutes.

For the coleslaw, juice the lemon with the Citrus Press to measure 1 tbsp (15 mL). Combine the lemon juice, mayonnaise, sugar, and black pepper in a medium bowl.

Transfer ¼ cup (50 mL) of the dressing to a small bowl. Add the coleslaw mix to the bowl with the remaining dressing and stir to combine.

Heat the Nonstick Double Burner Grill over medium-high heat for 3–5 minutes. Brush the reserved dressing onto the cut side of the rolls.

Add the rolls, cut-side down, to one side of the pan, and add the chicken to the other side. Grill the rolls for 3–5 minutes, or until grill marks appear. Grill the chicken for 3–4 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

To serve, place ¼ cup (50 mL) of the coleslaw in each roll and top with 2 grilled chicken tenders and 1 pickle spear.

Thin slices of fresh apple, dusted with a touch of cinnamon, then baked to crisp perfection—these homemade apple chips are irresistibly addictive! The best part? They’re naturally sweet with no added sugar and baked instead of fried, making them a wholesome snack you can feel good about.

Apple Chips
3 large sweet crisp apples, such as Honeycrisp, Fuji, Jazz, or Pink Lady
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Place racks in the upper and lower thirds of your oven and preheat your oven to 200 degrees F.
Line two Cookie Sheets with parchment paper or a Silicone Baking mat.
Wash the apples. With the Corer, core the apples. Using the Simple Slicer set on #1, slice the apples.
Arrange the apples in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake for 1 hour in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Continue baking for 1 to 1-1/2 additional hours, until a single apple chip removed from the oven is crisp when set out at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes. Once you're happy with the crispness (the total time will vary based on the thickness of your slice and the type of apple), turn off the oven and let the apples sit in the oven for 1 hour as it cools down to crisp further.

Cook's Tips:
Thin slices are best! If you slice the apples more than 1/8 inch thick, they will still be delicious, but they won’t be crisp.

The color of the final apple chip will vary based on the type of apple. Crisper apples tend to be lighter, while softer, sweeter apples tend to be darker.

Store baked apple chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Favorite ways to enjoy these: Chopped and sprinkled over yogurt with granola, on top of salads, on top of oatmeal, and, of course, right out of the container!
