d day at slashfood We asked for it, and boy did we get it! Thanks to all of y'all delightful Slashfood readers and your delicious contributions to our theme day today! Here's the first 10 of what you guys are eating...with more to come later this evening, we're sure!

Alanna takes us on a Veggie Venture by making a salad with just about the only vegetable that I can think of that starts with D - Daikon and Pepper Salad.

Mental Masala gives us the grand tour through dal, the Indian term that refers to all lentils and beans. Marc shows us how to prepare dal in general.

Who knew you could bake brownies with beets? Bea from La Tartine Gourmand did! Her dark chocolate and beet root brownies are devilciously deep dark red.

We've all heard of the Denver Omelet, but at Kuchenlatein, we get a Denver Sandwich!

There had to be one, we just didn't know when, but here it is from Je Mange la Ville : Duck! This one's roasted and served with caramelized apples and onions. Quack quack!

What makes devilled eggs even better? Stephanie, the Happy Sorceress made deep fried her devilled eggs for her blog party.

Denise needs a Daily Dose of Ds, so she points to a few recipes for a lot of foods that begin with D. Not quite diet foods, though!

Looks like someone has a Chocolate Obsession with two posts: Dark Chocolate-dipped Cookies with Peppermint Cream and a revised version of Death by Chocolate.

The Laughing Gastronome went all out and made doggie ravioli! Not ravioli for your pet, but chorizo-stuffed ravioli shaped like dogs! How's that for Best in Show?

You've got to Cook Anything at Least Once, including a dolphin fish and udon in a dashi broth.

Denise here from the Daily Dose - and those recipes most definitely do fit into virtually any healthy diet - whether you're trying to lose weight or maintain your weight. They fit because they've been LIGHTENED and are not as high calorie or high fat as the more traditional version. :-)

Thanks for a fun game, can't wait til next month's theme.
