Chickpea Salad

On May 9, 2011 · 4 Comments

While I love meat, I try not to eat it all the time.  My weekly diet usually involves some meat, some seafood, maybe some poultry and usually a meatless dish, like pasta.  My lunches recently usually consist of leftover dinner so I’ve been having much more meat at lunch than I’d [...]

Spicy Channa

On April 23, 2011 · 7 Comments

I’m always on the hunt for great Indian recipes. I love Indian food and have dreams of recreating dishes that I enjoy at my usual Indian spots.  Sometimes I get things right but oftentimes the results fall short.  I’m guessing because I’m too lazy to grind my own spices and such [...]

Roasted Garlic and Caraway No-Knead Bread

On March 20, 2011 · 6 Comments

It has been almost a year since I last blogged about No-Knead Bread. For awhile I was chronicling my every attempt to perfect my no-knead bread technique (click here for search results) but I honestly haven’t made the bread in awhile.

On a recent trip to Philadelphia I had [...]

Kale Chips

On March 9, 2011 · 3 Comments

I’ve been hearing about kale chips for months but never got around to making them.  A lot of people say that they’re “as good as regular chips”.  Now, I LOVE LOVE LOVE me some potato chips so I just had to give them a try.  I just so happened to have some [...]

Tartine’s Buttermilk Scones with Dried Currants

On February 21, 2011 · 4 Comments

While I was in Miami for the holidays I bought a copy of the Tartine cookbook on sale. I’ve already made the lemon bars with success so now it’s just a matter of cooking my way through the book.

I decided to tackle the scones. Oddly enough I NEVER [...]

Cream of Mushroom Soup

On February 13, 2011 · 5 Comments

Growing up I wasn’t picky about food but I knew what I liked and what I didn’t like.  While other kids were eating Chef Boyardee and Spaghetti-Os I just couldn’t do it.  Similarly I could never get excited over canned soups.  One of the few canned soups I would eat (and [...]

Homemade Granola Bars

On February 10, 2011 · 10 Comments

Sure, I’ve been making my own Larabars and granola for a minute now but I’ve never even considered making my own granola bars. The funny thing is I generally find myself underwhelmed by the granola bars available in the supermarket. They generally have a lot of sugar, the ingredients [...]

Moosewood’s Potato Florentine Soup

On February 6, 2011 · 6 Comments

Soup is definitely key to my winter survival.  It’s generally easy to make, makes A LOT and warms me up from the inside out.  Plus soup is usually pretty inexpensive to make and is a good way to sneak in all sorts of veg.

One of my goals this winter is to [...]

Banana Cornmeal Waffles with Banana-Nut Sauce

On January 27, 2011 · 7 Comments


Weekend breakfasts are my favourite.  In theory I love going out for brunch but I generally leave feeling like I could’ve made the meal myself.  Weekend breakfasts at home usually involve bacon & eggs, pancakes, or ackee and saltfish so if I go out for brunch I [...]

Thomas Keller’s Apple Fritters

On January 18, 2011 · 6 Comments


This dessert may very well be what ruins me.

A bold statement, I know, but firmly rooted in the truth.  It all started a week or so ago when my friend Jaime was coming over to dinner.  I knew that I was going to make scallops for [...]
