“The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye”, so the song goes. It’s the perfect time to make a little corn relish. The zucchini are still bearing, the peppers are starting to bear and the corn…oh God, the corn! It’s so delicious fresh, but it’s nice to have a few jars of corn relish tucked away for later.

Okay. Right off I want you to know that The Goddess is misleading you. Yup. She’s leading you down the culinary garden path. She broiled the corn; she has no grill. And creamy? There is no cream, either. But, I’m here to tell you. This is truly delicious! Continue reading

This is a quick-fix dinner for Cinco de Mayo. If you have leftover chicken from Sunday dinner, like the Brazilian Bakery Sunday Chicken, then you’re set. If not, purchase one of those broasted chickens from the supermarket. This is a perfect patio dinner on a hot summer day. Continue reading

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

The Brazilians add corn to things. We don’t usually add corn to our hot dogs, but they do…Yup, hot dogs. As well as, those yummy little potato sticks. So, this is different, but it is a wonderful version of chicken salad. It’s creamy, has a nice pure flavor, a little crunch at the end. It’s just flat-out delicious. Continue reading

In my recipe box, this is called “Southern Confetti Salad”. And it does look like confetti, doesn’t it? But, that doesn’t really tell us much about this salad. It is a great option for a summer picnic salad, as it’s both easy and can sit out for a bit. But, it’s just as good in the dead of winter, with two feet of snow on the ground. Did I mention that it’s also delicious? Continue reading

I had falafel for lunch last week and I was reminded how much I love that flavor profile. I also noticed how nice and crispy the exterior was, so The Goddess, having a mind like a steel trap, thought, ‘hmmm…I wonder how a falafel mix would work for coating fish?” Continue reading

Seven Layer Dip has been around for years, and with good reason. It’s delicious. It’s easy and it’s delicious. It goes together in a flash and it’s delicious…are you seeing a pattern here? But, seven layers is just a tad too limiting for The Goddess…. Continue reading

You’ve heard about Texas Caviar, Cowboy Caviar, Bean Dip or whatever, right? You probably make it or at the very least, have eaten it. This isn’t exactly that…it’s really a riff on my mother’s Three Bean Salad and we could consider it “friends” with my Three Bean Salad with Potatoes and Corn. What makes this salad different? It has those lovely Tex-Mex flavors. I’m not a big fan of beans and rice, but give me a bean salad and I’m there to the very end…of the bowl! Chips are good, too. Continue reading
