The other day a dear friend came over to my apartment to spend the morning with me. She was interested in seeing how I work – the creative process of developing a recipe through styling and photographing. The way I work is a bit scattered and improvisational at times and I certainly gave her a […]
I’m always surprised at what my kids will and won’t eat. Pumpkin cookies, muffins, cakes, waffles and pancakes are things they can’t get enough of. As the mornings before school become chilly, there’s nothing better to fill up their little bellies than with these Whole Grain Gluten-Free Pumpkin Pancakes. They simply love them. And so […]
Ah, the eggplant. To quote Mark Bittman in his book, The Best Recipes in the World, “There is nothing like a simply cooked dish of eggplant. One of the world’s most beloved vegetables and one that several cuisines–Italian, Turkish, and Indian, most notably–treat with near reverence.” Amen, Mr. Bittman, amen. I think Mr. Bittman’s […]
Peach Buttermilk Bread Pudding. Could there be a more perfect comfort food? I think not. It is nearly impossible to compete with my husband’s very favorite bread pudding, but this comes pretty close. Bread pudding has always been one of his favorites. Every so often I make something that’s just for him. We are working […]
We love Ratatouille in any shape or form. Lately it’s been in pizza form. And as with the original, it’s delicious! This is the third time I’ve made it and it never seems to get old. Ratatouille Pizza is just a fancy way of saying vegetable pizza, I suppose. I leave off the tomato sauce […]
I was in the Seattle area last week visiting with family. It was so wonderful to have a little break from the hectic summer. We moved in July. (Moving is such a nightmare!) Between that and traveling, I haven’t done as much cooking as I would have liked. It’s been nice to settle in some […]
I want to marry this Coconut Lentil Soup with Lemongrass and Ginger. Sigh. It’s so incredible. I remember the first time I had Tom Kha Gai, or Thai Coconut Chicken Soup. I could not get enough of it. The combination of flavors was utter perfection. I was making it at home several times a week […]
It’s July. It’s hot outside and I don’t really know why, but this time of year has me craving oven fries with aioli. This Thyme Aioli sure hit the spot. I actually hate store-bought mayonnaise. Like a lot. If it’s homemade with lots of garlic, I’m in. Otherwise, keep it far away from me. There […]
Blueberry, Cucumber, Basil Salad with Vanilla Bean Vinaigrette sounds interesting right? Here’s how this salad came to be. :) My little garden has started producing. That is to say, my container garden. The in-the-ground garden has some catching up to do. I fell in love with cucumbers last summer, so I made sure to plant […]
This week has been a doozy. Nothing simple about it. Just a bunch of complicated things I wish I didn’t have to think about. Do you ever have weeks like that? Suffice it to say, I was in the mood for a simple dinner tonight to help me relax before it all starts up again […]
