Remember back when I posted Strawberry-Lemon Blondie Bars, I mentioned that I thought instead of strawberries, I wanted to use nectarines and blueberries. It was a good thought and it’s a wonderful combination. Continue reading

So we had Vietnamese-Flavored Meatloaf on Friday, and it’s hot today, so perfect day to satisfy my Banh Mi craving. But, I decided to lighten it up a bit and make a wrap, instead of a sandwich…and I didn’t have the bread, but I did have flour tortillas. Continue reading

I’ve had Banh Mi on my mind recently. At this point, venturing out for a Banh Mi, is foolishly indulgent, no matter how good it is. And these are good! Solution? Make some for the The Latin Lover and me. To that end, a meatloaf seemed like the place to start. This is that meatloaf. Continue reading

blueberries, cinnamon, eggs, Grape-Nuts cereal, heavy cream, orange oil, sugar, vanilla extract, whole milk
This is truly an old-fashioned dessert. It’s homey and comforting. It’s also delicious. It’s a basic recipe, you’ll be able to find elsewhere. This is from my mother’s recipe file, though delicious, I couldn’t resist updating it…just a bit. Continue reading

all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, brown sugar, eggs, Spices, toasted oatmeal, toasted walnuts, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, vegetable oil, white sugar
This little gem of a cake is perfect for breakfast or an afternoon tea (or coffee). It’s moist, actually gets better as it sits, (though it is damn fine the first day, too!), isn’t too sweet, keeps well and is more or less, a one-bowl cake. It is just plain lovely! Continue reading

Eggplant, mozzarella cheese, olive oil, panko crumbs, parmigiano reggiano cheese, pasta sauce, ricotta cheese
I love the idea of eggplant parmesan. But, the problem for me has always been the breading. It’s just too much. It overpowers the flavor of the eggplant and I like that flavor. So when I saw Grilled Eggplant Parmesan on the Food & Wine website, my light bulb lit right up! Continue reading

Everyone needs a good tomato-based pizza sauce. And this one is really, really good…stupendously delicious, in fact. I think it’s the anchovy, but who knows for sure? Continue reading

Posted in Dry Rubs/Spice Blends, Gluten Free, Spices, Vegetarian
I always have bottle of this rub/seasoning in my cupboard. With BBQ season just around the corner, this is a must-have. I usually double the recipe, as I go through it quickly. It takes a burger and a steak to a heavenly place. Continue reading

This is summer…or in this case, late spring, on a plate. It’s perfect for lunch or dinner, and can go main course by adding some shrimp or tuna. Use whatever beans you have in your cupboard, but garbanzo or kidney are my favorite for this salad. Continue reading
