A few weeks ago, my good friend Lori shared a link for making an extra smooth hummus at The Hummus Blog. I never really thought about the smoothness of my hummus and didn’t realize this was an area of concern for so many… I just pureed the hell out of it in my food processor until [...]

My mom was a great cook… always experimenting with new recipes she had collected from friends or the newspaper. A couple of years ago I found two of her recipes boxes I had forgotten I took when she passed away several years ago. I made a promise to go through the recipes and make as many [...] Chili is great at this time of year. Heck chili is good any time of year. The beauty of chili is you can make it so many different ways, vary the heat, different meats, vegetables or totally vegan. I like it on the lean side made with ground turkey rather than beef. I’ve also made this [...] Strawberry Short-Cupcake It’s strawberry season… so I’ve been told. I forget every year until I start seeing strawberries everywhere and I’m drawn to them by their hypnotic aroma. Yes… the aroma tends to put me in another realm and I forget where I am. Since I’ve been in a cupcake haze the last few weeks and exploring [...] Vegan Key Lime Cupcakes I’m not a vegan, although I did omit all animal products for a couple years. My intro into vegan baking started when I was a cupcake tester for Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World. Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Romero opened my eyes to vegan baking, showing that you don’t needs special [...] Chicken with Pan-Fried Noodles I have been obsessed with pan-fried noodles lately.

The only thing [...] I think the only time I eat lamb is at Easter. It’s not that I don’t think of it – I associate it with Easter as it’s pretty much the only time my mother made it. Occasionally though, she would make a lamb stew… This is so simple. You can serve it with roasted potatoes or mashed. [...] This is a recipe by Jack Ricci. I thought it was too good not to share. I haven’t had a chance to try it yet – gotta dig out the dehydrator… not to mention find a place to put it when using…. I’m NOT kidding!! If you try it, let me know what you think!! Crispy Spicy Kale [...] I keep forgetting how easy it is to poach fish. Using white wine gives it that extra oomph that makes it special! Every time I serve this I get looks from those I’m serving that I must have spent hours in the kitchen slaving away. This is actually one of those dishes I feel like I [...] I love to make these once a year for St. Patrick’s Day. Yea, I’m Irish (what’s it to ya!) but I’m not really a beer drinker. That being said, the stout brings out (ooo, a rhyme!) a nice flavor in the cupcakes that all will enjoy. Erin go braugh!! Mini and Regular size Chocolate Stout Cupcakes Chocolate Stout [...] |
