As I mentioned in the recent Czech-German Sauerkraut post, I served these lovely breasts with the sauerkraut, instead of the more traditional pork. Turns out, to be rather tasty and I will make this for The Latin Lover, sans the sauerkraut. Continue reading

You gotta’ love the New York Times cooking section. They offer up some amazing recipes and that’s where I got the idea for this dish. They have some truly spectacularly delicious recipes. Continue reading

You know how The Goddess loves potato salads of all kinds. She’s given you Classically Good Potato Salad, French-Style Potato Salad and Grilled Potato Salad. This one is pretty much a basic potato salad, but she riffed on the dressing used for German potato salad and then threw in a few things she thought would be tasty. Continue reading

I forget about meatloaf and I don’t know why. We love it. It’s goes together quickly. It practically bakes itself and damn, it’s just so delicious. And best of all, it makes great sandwiches. I’ve already given you Roadhouse Meatloaf, but you should have this one, too. Continue reading

It’s getting to be that time of year, when things are coming up fresh and verdant. The asparagus spears will soon be sprouting up in the garden, or in my supermarket “garden”. The nice fat spears are calling my name, they’re on sale and baby, The Goddess is buying! Continue reading

As I mentioned in the post for the Broccoli-Apple Slaw with Cranberries, I’ve discovered broccoli slaw, that mixture of shredded broccoli that lives in the produce department of your supermarket. We really liked that slaw, but it’s not exactly a “classic” slaw. So why not make a more classic version of coleslaw, but using the broccoli instead? Seriously. Why not? We’re flexible, aren’t we and this is just as delicious. Maybe even better. Continue reading

Texture. This is all about the texture…pure silk on the tongue. The flavor is wonderful, but the texture is positively silky. Divine. I kid you not. Slow-roasting makes for a moist and silky finish. Continue reading

We love Eggs Benedict. But, really. Who doesn’t? This is the perfect make ahead, ready-in-the-fridge sort of breakfast, or any meal for that matter. The Goddess knows a homemade hollandaise is always the way to go, but she’s a realist. She knows there are those among us, including herself, that periodically has a lapse and wants to just make things easy, so we use a mix. She forgives these little human foibles. Continue reading

It’s that time of year, when the garden’s abundance is at its pinnacle and the summer heat is beyond The Goddess’s tolerance. But, you still want to eat. This is the perfect meal to be the heat and use some of those veggies—cucumbers, radishes, onions, zucchini, corn and of course, tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes! Continue reading

This is a great little appetizer to whip up at a moment’s notice. Smear it on a bland, buttery cracker, and you think it’s perfect. But stuffed into one of the little sweet-hot round peppers that you can find on the olive bar…you know the ones, it’s stupendous. Continue reading
