I just ran across a recipe for Chicken Mole Casserole on the Food & Wine website.  And I do mean I “just” found it.  It sounded great; I liked the idea of it.  It just seemed like the perfect thing for dinner, so I made it, or rather my version of it. And it was on the table in 20 minutes!  What a great weeknight or Friday-night-after-work-instead-of-pizza dinner!  Continue reading →

Chicken, Garlic, onion, paprika, pepper, Potatoes, salt

Almost every Sunday, when we lived in São Paulo, we would walk over to the bakery just down the hill from our apartment, and buy 2 chickens.  Even today, I can almost smell the aroma wafting up from the bakery, more than 15 years later.  They were a memory that was worth trying to recreate.  Continue reading →

Sweet & Spicy Pickled Pineapple ‘Tis the time of year!  This is a great gift from the kitchen, though admittedly The Goddess has been know to plan to give this away, and it never quite makes it out of the kitchen.  So she’s sharing the recipe with you, just in case you don’t receive a jar, now you can make it yourself.  Continue reading →

Sweet Potato-Black Bean with TurkeyI will tell you unabashedly, that I got the idea for this soup from the fantastic  Marcus Samuelsson, chef/owner of The Red Rooster in Harlem.  Watching him cook is like watching a flawless ballet performance, but with sharp knives and flames.  He also happens to have spectacularly, nuanced taste buds.  Continue reading →

Mashed Potato Perfection

I posted this last year, but I think it’s work repeating, because well, it’s that time of year and we’re talking mashed potatoes…pure comfort food.  They are smooth, creamy and soft, the perfect foil for butter or gravy.  Potatoes are incredibly nutritious and by themselves relatively low cal; it’s the stuff we add that run up the calorie count, but…these are guiltless.   Continue reading →
