A brightly coloured salad.

The Crepes Suzette is a citrusy French dessert, which adds a gourmet touch to your meal. Here, buttery pancakes are stuffed with a tangy orange filling, which is made of orange juice and rind flavoured mildly with brandy. The filling too has a buttery taste and texture as the orangey ingredients are all held together in a fluffy base of soft butter and sugar. A touch of brandy gives the filling an exotic taste and aroma. The final masterstroke in the preparation of this zesty dessert is a topping of orange sauce, which carries the tangy notes even higher. Relish this dessert immediately upon assembling, to enjoy the fresh textures and flavours.

This salad is a good source of iron, vitamin c, calcium and carbohydrate which is the source of instant energy. It will perk you up almost instantly. It makes a great snack that can be assembled quickly at any time using all your favourite fruits.

I often create new recipes with what is left in the refrigerator. Many of these creations work and my family lets me know when they don't. This is one of the recipes that got a hearty nod. It provides adequate amounts of calcium, vitamin C, iron and fibre. Sprouting the pulses increases their nutrient content and also makes them easier to digest as compared to whole unsprouted pulses.

Colourful, wobbly jelly set into orange peel cups, cut into boat-shaped pieces and decorated with paper flags, this is indeed something you would like to serve grandly to guests. Make sure you remove the orange segments carefully so that they can be eaten as is, or used in other recipes.

Italians love their desserts and there is always something special for every occasion. The sicilians are said to have the sweetest tooth of all and many italian desserts are thought to have originated there. This recipe is of a favourite sicilian biscotti or cookies steeped in alcohol and sandwiched with fruits and cream. These are soft inside and crisp on the outside. They do not keep very well, so sandwich the biscottis with cream and fruits and eat them up quickly!

Vitamin C boost poured in to a glass should be one's choice to fight infections and common cold.

Traditionally served chilled, you can make a warm version of this tangy dish too. The pineapple is cooked with jaggery and along with the other fruits is mixed with the mustard paste which is the key ingredient of this traditional recipe.

For the health-conscious, a light-n-easy choice.

Sangria comes from the Spanish word sangre, meaning blood from the colour. In Spain and the surrounding area, it is drunk at many festivals with great theatrical drama - poured directly into the mouth from a long spouted jug! The art lies in being able to drink the Sangria from varying heights without spilling any! It has now become a very well known drink, cool and packed with fruit. Ideally, Sangria needs to sit for a full day before it is served, to ensure a smooth and mellow taste. If a day is not possible, give it an absolute minimum of two hours to sit. Doubling or tripling the recipe is fine, but you'll have to switch to a large punch bowl in place of the pitcher.
