This is a fun little breakfast or supper dish. I got this from the folks over at Serious Eats. Those people are geniuses. This is a slightly different way of folding the crêpe than we normally see. But, delicious these are. Continue reading

It’s almost strawberry season. I’m impatient. So, I purchase supermarket strawberries, just to get myself in the mood. They are almost always a disappointment, but oddly enough, even those work reasonably well with this lovely springtime dessert. Continue reading

Who doesn’t love a good cheeseburger? And nice, crispy fries? So, The Goddess was thinking this might just work in a casserole. You know how she’s into these one-dish or skillet dinners.

You’ve heard The Goddess prattle on about how much she adore leftovers. She prays at the table of leftovers. I’m certain it’s gotten to the point where you want to gouge out your eyes and run a red-hot poker through your ears, every time she says that.

I’m guessing that you’re thinking The Goddess has plunged deeply off the edge of the earth, which most rational, sane people can make a case for on any given day anyway. But you really do have to try this. It is surprising and surprisingly delicious. With local berries in season, it’s the perfect time of year for this sauce, which is as good drizzled over grilled chicken as it is over good vanilla ice cream. Continue reading

Omelets, or omelettes, are a great quick breakfast, lunch, dinner or late night snack option. Okay, so anytime is good! They are quick to prepare, can use up leftovers and they can be finished and on the table, within 20 minutes after you step in the door. Continue reading

I haven’t made the creamy-type of polenta in years…and I do mean years. I had forgotten just how good it is and that it’s a nice alternative to mashed potatoes. It also behaves as a backdrop for other flavors; herbs, spices, garlic, scapes or ramps, and in this case, cheese! Beautiful, creamy cheese!! Continue reading
