This is another one of those recipes that is so easy to make and so delicious that you’ll wonder why you don’t make it more often. You can use fresh peppers—as I did for this recipe—or jarred ones which you rinse. I cooked the peppers over the grate of my stove at work, but thisContinue reading “Smokey Roast Red Pepper Hummus (yum!)”

How to make tofu really flavorful and chewy in three simple steps (yup, it’s this simple)
This is really easy and the outcome is so delicious that I’ve even had a devout “tofu hater” say it was really good. Eaten as a snack, on a salad or sandwich, or as a component to a stir-fry or rice dish, it delicious, healthy, and versatile. I seasoned this with Cajun seasoning and seaContinue reading “How to make tofu really flavorful and chewy in three simple steps (yup, it’s this simple)”

Black Bean-Cheddar Falafel with Avocado Taratoor (yum)
So this is just another version of the classic Middle Eastern chickpea fritters known as falafel. You likely know by now that when I enjoy a particular recipe I end up with multiple versions of it (for other variations on this recipe, click here). Anyhow, this is just a suggestion…interchange any bean or cheese youContinue reading “Black Bean-Cheddar Falafel with Avocado Taratoor (yum)”

Pizza Pie…yet another (really delicious) variation
Yes this is yet another pizza variation I made for dinner tonight (click here to see other versions). As is often the case, when I was making bread today I took a third of the dough and turned it into pizza…two meals in one, or at least two things in one, I suppose. Anyhow, thisContinue reading “Pizza Pie…yet another (really delicious) variation”

Buffalo Style Tofu Nuggets…yup, you heard me.
Ok, so first of all, I am fully aware that “Buffalo-Style” and tofu are usually not in the same sentence, but these are really delicious and easy to make, too. I am also fully aware that just because they are tofu does not make them any more healthier than if they were made of chicken.Continue reading “Buffalo Style Tofu Nuggets…yup, you heard me.”

Spicy Avocado Hummus with Roast Garlic and Jalapeno (yum!)…

Macaroni al forno con cavolfiori…
I posted this recipe about a month ago but made it again for dinner yesterday. It is so easy and delicious I thought I’d re-post it. Now if you’ll excuse me I think I’ll go have some leftovers. Baked Macaroni with Caramelized Cauliflower and Two Cheeses Make four small or two large servings 1 cupContinue reading “Macaroni al forno con cavolfiori…”

“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”

A well educated beet…
This is a really simple recipe that is really bursting with flavor…it’s basically a sweet-and-sour vegetable recipe. The beets, after being peeled and sliced or diced, are cooked in a water-vinegar-sugar solution, and then the liquid is thickened with cornstarch. There’s a couple interesting theories on the name of this recipe. One is that itContinue reading “A well educated beet…”

Spicy, Baked, and Cheesy (Yum!)
So here is another recipe that is super easy to make but bursting with flavor. It’s really just a sort of Mediterranean-style macaroni-and-cheese. The key flavor techniques are browning the vegetables (making a sort of sofrito), reducing the chicken broth for concentrated flavor, and allowing the pasta to finish cooking in the sauce so itContinue reading “Spicy, Baked, and Cheesy (Yum!)”
