Spicy Broccoli Soba Sauté

On May 25, 2010 · 2 Comments

While I love me some meat sometimes I eat totally vegetarian. I had a few bundles of soba noodles in my cupboard that I’ve been meaning to use up so when I saw this recipe in Moosewood Restaurant New Classics it sounded like a great option. I’m a fan of [...]

Veal Pasta Sauce with Red, Green, and Yellow Peppers

On March 27, 2010 · Leave a Comment

I’ve had Marcella Says… by Marcella Hazan for years but rarely use it. There’s no real reason why I don’t turn to it more often. I once made a salmon recipe (that I blogged about) that turned out fantastically.  I blame it on the fact that I have a bunch [...]

The Best Pad Thai

On March 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Recently I’ve been having serious cravings for Thai food.  Sure, I order Thai from my fave local spot Sorn Thai but I’ve been wanting to make some myself.  I really want Thai Food by David Thompson but I can’t find it anywhere!  I’m hoping they reprint it as I [...]

Thai Beef Soup

On February 14, 2010 · Leave a Comment

The other day my work bestie was raving about this soup and gave me the recipe.  I admit it looked pretty delicious and I NEVER covet other people’s lunches.  It sounded right up my alley with all the thai flavour and meatballs (I LOVE meatballs) so convincing me to make it was [...]

Pasta With Chicken and Mushrooms, Risotto Style

On December 29, 2009 · 3 Comments

I was reading the Food Section of the New York Times and stumbled upon this recipe for a risotto-style pasta dish by Mark Bittman.  I love risotto and I love pasta so I figured I’d see how this would all work out.

It was kind of labour intensive for no reason!  The [...]

Lidia Bastianich’s Lasagna

On December 27, 2009 · 2 Comments

I’ve had Lidia’s Italian-American Kitchen by Lidia Bastianich for a while but I don’t use it that often… for no reason.  The few times I”ve made stuff out of the cookbook they’ve been pretty yummy like these spaghetti and meatballs.

I was bored one day and looking for meal ideas when [...]

Otsu (Soba Noodles)

On December 16, 2009 · 1 Comment

I’ve been a fan of Heidi Swanson of 101 Cookbooks for awhile.   She’s definitely one of the “mega” food bloggers out there and she focuses on vegetarian, vegan and natural cooking.  The photograpy is awesome and the recipes are neat.

One of my friends is currently on a soba noodle kick.  She’s obsessed, [...]

Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Brown Butter and Sage

On November 14, 2009 · 2 Comments

Me and this recipe go waaaay back.  I found it in Bon Appetit back in 2005 and have loved it ever since.  Prior to seeing this in Bon App I had never even thought about the idea of Sweet Potato Gnocchi but when I read the recipe it sounded oh so right.

Now [...]

Barefoot Bloggers: Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes

On July 11, 2009 · 1 Comment

I’m normally so on top of my Barefoot Bloggers posts. I’ve had this made for a few days but have been kind of lazy with doing a write-up. Oops!

This week’s pick comes courtesy of Cat of Delta Whiskey. I enjoy the pasta so was not opposed to giving this recipe a [...]
