Sloth's Guacamole Smores A La Grund Adam's Asparagus Not So Prickly Ice Cream Only Orange Blueberry Butter Candied Pears Grandma's Grape Jam Pineapple Right-Side-Up Cupcakes Neofruit Kabob 
A zesty dip that goes with almost everything! Makes about 3 cups, enough for the whole party! Ingredients
Cut each Avacado Chia in half, and remove the pit. Using a spoon, scoop out all of the precious guac, and mash it up real good in a bowl. 
Dice up the Tomato Chia, add to mix. Cut up a bit of the Pepper Chia (depending on how spicy you want it) and add as well.  
Chop up the onion as fine as you can manage, and stir in. You can also add a carefully diced and pressed clove of Garlic Kiko for that extra kick if you so desire! I also like to add a good squeeze of Lemon Chia at the very end. You won't notice a difference in taste, but it will help keep the quacamole green longer, as it will start to brown pretty quickly.   
Isn't it good? It goes great with burritos, tacos, chips, and believe it or not, artichokes! 
Ahh, the classic campfire treat--smores! A simple yet delicious treat that you and your Neopet will enjoy making (and eating!) together. Makes two. Ingredients
Arrange each Mallow Grundo on a twig. Use more than one for extra sweet yum! 
Over either the flame on the top of your stove or a small bonfire, carefully toast the Grundo until it's golden brown.  
Carefully cut your Chocolate Chia into two pieces with a knife. 
Arrange your sugar filled sandwich in this order (or if you happen to figure out an order than works better, all the more power to you!).  +  +  +
Eat up! Make sure to have plenty of napkins on hand, these can get pretty sticky! 
A simple appetizer in honor of Adam. How easy does it get? Serves two. Ingredients
Prepare Asparagus Chia by boiling in a skillet (on low heat) for about 5-6 minutes. Drain and let cool. 
Melt the Cheese Negg in a pan. 
Drizzle cheese over the Asparagus, or use as a dip! 
This creamy holiday treat is too good to only make once a year! Serves 6. Ingredients
Slice Thornberry Chia into 8 even pieces. Cut out the inner meat, peeling off the thorns and skin. Boil in two cups of water for about 10 minutes, or until it thickens. Refridgerate for a few hours.   
Blend with Custard Chia until a creamy thickness. Pour into a shaped pan, and freeze overnight. 
Serve alone, or as a scoop along with pie! 
A more refined take on traditional cake, yet it tastes so good even kids will eat it! Serves six. Ingredients
Sift the powdered ingredients together.  
Squeeze the Chias into a juice. Add to powdered mixture. 
Stir in eggs and milk.  
Pour into a greased Chia-shaped pan and bake for 30 minutes at 46°N. Let cool and frost! 
A simple way to add some taste to pancakes, toast, and bagels! Makes about two cups. Ingredients
Melt the butter in a medium sized bowl just enough so you can stir it up. Pour into a blender, and add the Blueberry Chias. Blend for about two minutes, or until the texture is uniform and free of chunks.  
Pour into a small bowl and refridgerate for several hours. Use this pale blue butter to liven up plain bread items! 
A less sugary but equally sweet alternative to candies! Serves four. Ingredients
Peel and core Pear Chias, and add to a large pot filled with water. Peel Orange Chia, and add about half of the peels to the water, along with the jam and cinnamon. Bring to a boil, then lower heat, and simmer for about 30 minutes.    
Remove the Pears, and refridgerate. Continue simmering sauce for another 30 minutes. Strain out cinnamon stick and orange peels. Refridgerate. 
You can serve it warm, too, if you'd like, but I find it tastes best cold. Drizzle sauce over pears prior to serving! 
A really simple (and really satisfying) jam. You won't believe how easy it is, so brace yourself! Makes 4 jars. Ingredients
Mash up Grape Chias. Careful, they might try to team up on you. Add sugar to mixture, along with one cup of water. Bring to a boil, and continue to boil for about 25 minutes, making sure to stir. Can! 
Let cool, serve on toast, crumpets, hotdogs--you name it! 
For more adult palettes. Preperation for this is a bit more tricky, but once you get the nack for it, you'll be a pro! Makes two dozen cupcakes. Ingredients
Firstly, you're going to have to remove the prickly outter layer of the Pineapple Chia. This can be difficult, but with the right care, won't take too awful long. 
Dice into cubes as small as you can manage, and then put them in a bowl, and mash into a pulpy goo. The Pineapple will be a bit tough to squash, so this could easily be the most difficult task. The more squishy you get it the less chunky the cupcakes will be, which is (as far as I can tell) ideal. 
Sift the powdered ingredients, set aside.
Add the milk and eggs to the Pineapple-mash and stir up. Stir in the powdered mix.
Poor into greased cupcake pans and bake at 40°N for 25 minutes. Let cool, frost, and add remnants from the Pineapple for decoration! 
A light summer snack that can incorporate your leftover fruits. Don't put unused Chias to waste! The Chias listed are just a guideline, there's pretty much no way to mess this up! Makes about 6 kabobs. Ingredients
Peel and chop up various fruits. Stab!     
Chill in fridge, eat up!
