Tuesday’s Everyday Food Challenge recipe was nice and savory. As a bonus, I thought that I’d make something a little sweet from the same issue. I present to you the tiny Carrot-Cake Cookies. I have only one question for the editor that wrote this note with the recipe, “The cookies are also good (and have…

everyday food challenge – southwestern skillet pie
This recipe for Southwestern Skillet Pie from issue 17 of Everyday Food Magazine combined a few of my favorite things, cooking with my cast iron skillet and finely mincing a bunch of garlic. To me there is no better aroma in the kitchen than the scent of freshly chopped garlic. So you know how I…
pizza frittata – everyday food challenge
It’s another pizza-centric Everyday Food Challenge. I guess you know where by hungry heart lives. After all, the last time I featured the mini deep-dish pizzas about two thousand folks stopped by my little blog in one day. This week, from issue #16 of Everyday Food magazine, I introduce you to the Pizza Frittata. I…
orecchiette with sausage & roasted peppers – everyday food challenge
Cooler fall-like temperatures mean only one thing to me. Comfort food time. And this recipe for Orecchiette with Sausage and Roasted Peppers from issue #15 of Everyday Food Magazine hit the comfort food target with a bulls-eye. Can I tell you a secret? I’m not a huge fan of peppers. And for that reason alone,…
jarlsberg spread – everyday food challenge
As promised in Tuesday’s post, a bonus Everyday Food Challenge recipe from issue #14, Jarlsberg Spread. Are you familiar this outstanding cheese? Exported from Norway, Jarlsberg cheese is known for its distinctive sweet and nutty taste. To make this delectable spread you’ll need about 2 cups of grated Jarlsberg, a little less than a cup…
peach buckle – everyday food challenge
Rustic and elegant. That’s how I’d describe this incredible Peach Buckle from issue #14 of Everyday Food Magazine. Can I be honest for a moment? I’ve been feeling like last week’s challenge was kind of a cop-out. I mean really, yogurt cheese? All I did was strain some yogurt over night. I hope that this…
yogurt cheese – everyday food challenge
Everyday Food Challenge, Issue 13. I made cheese. So over on my 37 Things List, I have making mozzarella cheese on the list of things I want to accomplish. Does making yogurt cheese count? Probably not, but this was super easy. To make it, you’ll need a little time for the yogurt to separate. I…
mini deep-dish pizzas
So you all know that I’ve been cooking my way through all of the issues of Everyday Food Magazine beginning with issue #1. I’ve worked through the first twelve issues and decided that today I’d post an Everyday Food Challenge Fast Forward. Ever since I received the newest issue, #75, I’ve been wanting to try…
mocha custards – everyday food challenge
Something sweet and simple takes center stage for my Everyday Food Magazine Challenge this week. We’re up to issue #12 and the recipe that I selected is the Mocha Custard. I’ve never attempted a traditional custard. The tempering of the eggs has always sort of intimidated me. I was always worried that I’d end up…
jalapenos – everyday food challenge
Today’s Everyday Food Challenge brings two issues together just south of the border. I visited the downtown Akron Farmer’s Market on Friday and picked up a basket of jalapeno peppers for a recipe from issue #11 and found that I had purchased so many that I could also make a recipe from issue #73. So…
