Confession time. I’ve made this recipe for Lighter Sesame Chicken four times in the last two weeks. It is insanely good. There’s something about the sweet and savory glaze that the honey and soy sauce create. The Everyday Food magazine recipe calls for broccoli as the added vegetable. I’ve been using fresh greens and love…

creamy fettuccine with asparagus – everyday food challenge
Is there any recipe that toasted pine nuts wouldn’t improve? I love them scattered over a creamy pasta. It’s one of the reasons that I selected this recipe for Creamy Fettuccine with Asparagus for this week’s Everyday Food Challenge. That and because I love fettuccine alfredo. This looked like a slightly healthier alternative. None of…
penne frittata with basil and ricotta & roasted fingerling potatoes with seasoned salt
Ladies and gentlemen, my longest blog title yet. Sorry about that. Well, not really because these two recipes from Martha Stewart Living magazine are pretty great. It all started when I was at the grocery store and came across a big bag of multi-colored perfect little fingerling potatoes. There’s just something about them, that I…
chewy chocolate chunk-cherry cookies
As you are reading today’s post, I am in a car with three of my favorite people (ok, I really like you too, but there wasn’t enough room in the car for anyone else) traveling through America’s heartland from Akron, Ohio to St. Louis, Missouri. No road trip is complete with out a great selection…
my top ten posts of 2010
It’s been quite a year. A little exposure over at marthastewart.com, and things really took off. I thought that I’d recap the last year with a summary of my top ten visited posts. Click on the links to be taken back to the original posts. I can’t thank you enough for taking a few minutes…
pomegranate-glazed chicken – everyday food challenge
About a month or so ago, I received an email from POM Wonderful, asking if I’d like to sample their 100% pomegranate juice. At the same time I remembered that Everyday Food magazine had featured this amazing juice back in its December 2006 issue in the “Have You Tried?” section. That’s were I found the…
birthday waffles
I awoke this morning to the sweet scent of waffles made by Greg. What a great way to start the first day of my 38th year. Did I accomplish all that I’d wanted from my 37 Things list? Not even close. But I intend to continue to knock out what’s left on the list and…
chocolate peppermint cookies
Oh the snow…the weather around these here parts has been pretty frightful the last couple of days. On Sunday, I decided it would be best to use my shut-in time to bake some cookies for the holidays. I made dad’s ginger cookies that I wrote about previously. I also baked white chocolate cranberry oatmeal cookies…
sausage and mushroom pasta gratin
In my effort to utilize the iPad in the kitchen I decided to make dinner earlier this week from a recipe from the Gourmet Live app. While Gourmet the magazine is gone, I kind of have to admit being quite smitten by their iPad app. You earn additional issues of the digital version of the…
five senses friday #17 : the return
I’m working through my mild case of “bloggers block”. For a while there I was blogging up a storm. To be honest, I was probably over doing it a bit. But I do need to get back on track. A few weeks ago I promised 5 desserts in 5 days. That got a little side-tracked,…
