This just became my favorite warm salad. A bite of this dish sports that earthy flavor of the cooked radish- which is somewhat akin to a roasted Brussels sprout, the saltiness of the bacon, the sweetness of the orange juice, the slight bitterness of the radish greens, and it makes...
If you’re in the market for a warm vegetable stew with luscious spices which will reheat well, then I’ve got a dish for you. This is a very mild curry (which you could heat up with some cayanne and/or crushed red pepper if that’s your preference) and it has notes...
So this isn’t a recipe, but it is what I ate for lunch today. It’s low in fat, high in protein and omega 3s, and damned tasty! I was preparing pureed Lima beans for the work week to have for snacks so I used that as my base. I dropped...
When it comes to rolls, this Honduran staple is a winner. I initially served these rolls with a dinner of beef tenderloin and roasted garlic mashed potatoes with steamed green beans, and didn’t realize the injustice that I was causing- not allowing my family to really taste the bread which...

Do you typically avoid vegetarian recipes because you assume that they will be bland, possibly lacking in protein, and just not your favorite type of fare? Many folks do. I would like to change your mind with this recipe. It is flavorful, hearty, colorful, packed with protein (17 grams per...

Well, here in New England we are mostly all back online from the October snow storm that broke our trees into pieces. Friends and family have been keeping their frozen goods in coolers, heating water in beer brewing equipment, and cooking on gas grills for a week or more. On...
This recipe is really well balanced, both in flavor and in nutrition. I chose to buy uncooked shrimp so that they would not be tough in the finished dish. Feel free to use precooked, just be sure to add them at the last possible minute so that they heat through,...
