Sometimes I like making dinner so much I get to do it twice in one night. Or, more realistically, Mike is a whole lot more excited about chicken than he is about tempeh, so I end up figuring out how to make a recipe two ways. (Although he did [...]

There is a mediocre (at best) restaurant in the town where I went to college, and I’m now ashamed when I think about how often I ate there. I always ordered the Asian Spa Salad which, in retrospect, was really pretty terrible: a bunch of iceberg lettuce in a [...] I read a LOT of food blogs on a regular basis, and I’m starting to see a trend: I gravitate towards blogs with a) fantastic, beautiful pictures and b) original recipes. This is because my blog usually has c) none of the above (but I’m working on it! I [...] Home ec class, Hollywood Senior High School, Nedlands, Western Australia. That’s where, in the fall of 1997, I fell in love with cooking. I had cooked periodically before that, but that was the first time I got to do everything myself, start to finish. I was in heaven.

The dish has amazing flavor, and is [...] I have wanted to make this recipe for awhile, and it definitely did not disappoint! While the cookbook says to serve it over rice, I really wanted to make injera. For those not familiar with Ethiopian food, Injera is a large, spongy flatbread used to scoop up stew. This [...] The rumors are true! Pioneer Woman’s Crispy Yogurt Chicken is awesome. Beyond awesome. Someone, please help me find a new adjective. My sixth graders so gently reminded me today that you have to vary the adjectives you use, and I overuse that one. Anyway, about this chicken. I loved it. [...] Our pantry is FULL. We went on a few too many shopping trips to ethnic grocery stores so I am now fully stocked on a TON of spices, all kinds of dried grains and legumes, and noodles from several different international cuisines. My challenge for this week is [...] Pizza. I adore it. I’m also not very picky about it. I’ve had “the real thing” in Naples, and enjoyed it just about as much as the 2 for 1 pies from the place down the street. For awhile, I tried to be a purist. I denounced places like [...] |
