I was inspired by this thread, so I added cumin to a normal green bean casserole:
Fresh, cooked green beans
Cream of mushroom soup
Garlic - to taste
Cumin - to taste
Mix all ingredients together and bake @350 for 20-25 minutes. Top with french fried onions and bake for another 5 minutes.

Decided to try this one out:
Butternut Squash & Vegetable w/ cumin
8 cups - Butternut squash broth
6 - 7 cups - Water
700g - Butternut squash (medium)
400g - Cauliflower (1/2 lrg head)
400g - Broccoli (3 stalks)
200g - Yellow onion (medium)
140g - Red bell pepper (lrg)
170g - Celery (7 stalks)
300g - Carrots (ummmm?)
1 tbsp - Salt
2 tsp - Cumin
1 tsp - Turmeric
1 tsp - Pepper
Skin, split, and scoop out seeds of butternut squash. Put into large pot with 3 cups of water, cover, and bring to a roiling boil for 15-20 minutes.
Cut up the other vegetables, while the squash softens.
Pour in Butternut broth with the boiling squash. Lower to a simmer, and add cut up vegetables and remaining water. Simmer until carrots are tender. Add in seasoning and stir well.
Makes about 14 servings at 400g (~2.5c) per serving. Approximately 122 calories per serving.

@tincanonastring I don't think my boyfriend would like me messing with his green bean casserole but that sounds amazing!
@FoodPwnr Thank you! I'll shift through that. I love my spices and want to learn more about them.
@Derf_Smeggle I was just talking to my friend about squash today and how your taste buds change over time. Will definitely try this soon0 -

I use cumin in my cooking almost everyday. I add it to make curries, soup and some bean salads.0

Sure, I can google it but I want to know any proven recipes that you really like or odd combinations. My ideas so far are with roasted chickpeas and in white bean chili. I'm not a picky eater and have a lot of ethnic grocery stores by me to pick up ingredients that are hard to find in other parts of the US.
You can use it in moderation with oregano, basil and other spices. Cumin is one of the ingredients in the Cuban Mojo that is the basis of many Cuban dishes. It is strong so sprinkle and taste.0 -
I use it on anything mexican food.0
