Are you in need of a side dish for your dinner with a Mexican twist? Do you love fresh squashes? Colorful foods? Adding vitamin C and powerful antioxidants to your diet? Well then, you’re in luck as I have just the recipe for you! As an alternative, you could add...
While searching one night for a salad that would pair well with dinner I found this recipe. It’s light, and sweet, and packed with protein and iron. Did you know that the aduki bean is the second most popular legume in Japan, following the soybean? And that sometimes they are...
This chili is a thing of beauty. By beauty I mean that the flavor of the green bell pepper transforms from an underripe, sharp, crisp bite to something soft and sweet. The ancho chili & crushed red pepper are balanced by the sweet potato and carrots. The mushrooms provide a...
These meatballs are awesome. They’re slightly sweet from the coriander and slightly spicy from the cayenne, and rounded out nicely with cinnamon and ginger and bay leaf. They’re very firm and hold together quite well. The sauce is thin as the meatballs are the stand-out part of this dish. We...
I have always loved the dry and crumbly nature of an Irish Soda Bread. It’s barely sweet, fairly dry at the crust, moist near the center, and just plain lovely. Problem is that the way my family recipe read was not very healthy so I set out to re-make the...

I can honestly say that I make stuffed peppers about twice each cool season, and I have never made them the same way twice. Sometimes I stuff them with quinoa & veggies, sometimes with brown rice. When I was a little girl my Mom stuffed green peppers with hamburger &...
This curry recipe is fantastic! It’s sweet and it’s spicy, and it’s even better left over. I think that when I make it again I’ll add some raisins to it, and maybe some kind of seeds or nuts too, just for a bit of texture. You could serve this as...
From downtown Holyoke, kitchbitch welcomes back guest chef Neil (applause). Neil selected this recipe for the health factor. You see, bulgur is packed with fiber, then there are shrimp for protein, lime and cilantro which add flavor-POP! You just can’t go wrong with this one. Total for prep and cook...
