This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is img_4346.jpgI enjoyed this lovely soup at the Worcester Museum of Art, in Massachusetts.  Their café is a lovely place for lunch and their signature Pear and Wild Mushroom Soup is a must try it.  It just stood out, so how could I not try it?  Oh, I’m so happy I did, because it’s absolutely delicious.  And is the inspiration for this lovely elixir.

ball parke mustard, bell pepper, bread and butter pickles, canned tuna, Celery, cherry tomatoes, fresh herbs, frozen peas, jicama, lemon juice, lemon zest, mayonnaise, olives, pickle brine, raw pasta, Scallions, sour cream, Spices, sweet vinaigrette

This is a throw-back to my childhood.  On hot summer days (we didn’t have air-condition!), when my mother didn’t want to heat up the kitchen, she would make this in the morning, and put it in the fridge.  At dinner time, she would add it to chopped iceberg lettuce, along with thawed frozen peas.  It was so very good, at the end of a hot day.  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 →

The Spicy Honey loves, loves, loves Bolognese sauce.  And admittedly, I’ve never been particularly happy with my previous attempts.  They were just ho-hum.  This one…I’m very happy with, and I think you might be, too!  Continue reading →

canned clams, canned tomatoes, carrot, Celery, cheese, Corn, Garlic, Onions, pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, Thyme

I’ve never been too big a fan of Manhattan-Style Clam Chowder.  I prefer creamy soups to tomatoy-brothy soups, but I gotta’ tell you…I like this one.  I like this one a lot.  It’s loaded with vegetables, chunky and while there’s broth, it has a heap of flavor.  And you know, The Goddess is all about flavor.  Continue reading →

Vegetable Soup with Italian FlavorsWith flu season upon us with a vengeance, I thought this was a good time of year to make a brothy, vegetable soup.  There are a few beans tossed in, but they were more of an afterthought.  This soup is all about vegetables, is slightly salty and will warm you to your bones.  Continue reading →

Lentils with Onion, Bell Peppers, Garlic and HerbsLentils make a nice “bed” for some lovely roasted chicken.  Or a piece of grilled fish or pork chop.  Think lentils, instead of rice, pasta or potatoes.  And lentils offer some terrific vitamins and minerals, too.  Oh yes, did I mention they are also delicious?  Continue reading →

bell pepper, Celery, Dijon mustard, Garlic, Green beans, honey, olive oil, onion, radishes, sherry vinegar, sugar, tri-bean blend legumes

We ate a lot of Three Bean Salad when I was a kid.  During the summer, my mother made it frequently.  I think it was because we all liked it, it made a huge batch and it kept well.  All that, and we had almost everything growing in the garden.  I started with her recipe, then took a flying leap!  Continue reading →
