Bean Curd Souvlaki!
A couple comments on this recipe.the first is that I could go on and on about how much I love the flavors of this simple marinade–which can be used on any meat, poultry, or fish–but I won’t. You’ll have to experience it. The other is that this recipe–just as my recipe of tandoori tofu–is anotherContinue reading “Bean Curd Souvlaki!”

Really good bread…four igredients, ok five, but one is optional
Okay, so here is something about me you likely do not know…I was once one of these people that thought making homemade bread was difficult. Well, it’s not.

“Buffalo-Style” Chicken-less Burgers
So first a couple things. When you are in Buffalo chicken wings are not referred to as “Buffalo Wings,” they are just wings. The first time I heard the term was, I think, in 1985 while at culinary school (of all places). To read an article I wrote on wings and all things “Buffalo Style”Continue reading ““Buffalo-Style” Chicken-less Burgers”

Baked Macaroni with Caramelized Cauliflower and Two Cheeses (yum!)
Okay. So this is really delicious. How delicious is it, you may ask? Well if you notice in the servings I wrote that it makes either four small or two large portions.
