I’ve been thinking about Indian food recently. Obsessing really. This is what usually sends me off on a recipe search. Picture The Goddess, crawling in camo through her jungle of cookbooks and the Inter”Webs”, in search of ideas. That’s an image, isn’t it? In this case, there wasn’t really a search. It just sort of came together, and I had leftover shrimp and lobster…see how that works? Continue reading
Pimento Cheese Spread is synonymous with the Southern US. It’s everywhere and can be easily purchased in the deli section of most supermarkets. Now purists would have us believe, and they’re probably right, that the supermarket stuff is well, YUK! But, in a pinch, and when you don’t know what the “real thing” should taste like, it’s not too bad! 
The mixture of onions, apples and mushrooms is a winning combination. I love this combination with pork or roasted chicken. This is particularly nice, because you can make it ahead and reheat it. I think it’s even better reheated, making it perfect for company. And, this compote positively screams autumn! 
Pork cutlets are lean, they cook quickly and can be seasoned and flavored in a myriad of ways…all delicious! They can be eaten as is, right out of the frying pan, or slipped in a good roll and served with some nice toppings…decisions, decisions! 
I love chicken salad. And I imagine you are pretty sick and tired of hearing about what The Goddess loves, as it seems to be everything, doesn’t it? What can I say? She’s an open-minded eater and a culinary adventurer. Damn, that sounds much better than reality, because she’s pretty much willing to try anything at least once. But, chicken salad is a never-to-be-passed-up dish, and this is a fantastic combination. Just as an aside, leftover Thanksgiving turkey is delicious here, too…. 
Sweet potatoes are wonderful and should be eaten more frequently than just at Thanksgiving. Don’t get me wrong, mashed sweet potatoes are wonderful, like the 
There is a plethora of origin stories for Caesar salad. The most common is probably the one that suggests it originated in Mexico, in the early 1920’s, made by the Cardini brothers. Mexico…Caesar salad…’Why not try using a more Mexican flavor profile?’, The Goddess wondered…it turns out it was a pretty tasty thought to have! 
This sauce is incredibly complex and absolutely delicious, with flavors leaning well into Spain and wandering just a bit into Portugal. Sherry vinegar, smoked paprika, cinnamon, olives, orange and almonds are significant players in both countries, tracing their roots back to the Moorish habitation of the peninsula for some 700 years. Make certain you have good bread to mop. You don’t want to miss a drop! 
The Goddess loves this time of year, when the frost is on the pumpkin, the leaves are a riot of color and there’s just a slight chill in the air. It’s soup weather. It’s stew and chili weather. And it’s time to make pumpkin bread!
