I mentioned in my Top 13 of 2012 post that Indian food has become my comfort food. The timespan following my recovery from C.Diff has proven that thoroughly. In the days when I started eating again I made several kheemas, the Parsi Inspired Chicken Curry with Mangoes and Cherries, and then this Curried Cranberry Beans…
Pork Posole with Roasted Pork Tenderloin & Lila Beans
Alex has been going through a picky phase (I’ll wait for the gasps to die down). Lately leftovers drive her nuts (thanks, Dad, I blame you for that one!) and she is incredibly picky about various textures. My method for dealing with this has been to ignore, ignore, ignore. I make what I want–and she…
Persian Rice and Beans with Pickled Red Onions and Fried Eggs, Sunny Side Up
I am becoming more and more obsessed with eggs. Which is weird, because in my previous, not obsessed with eggs life, I did not really even like eggs. Except after a night of too much drinking–then for some reason I craved scrambled eggs. Go figure. But I digress. The point being I never used to…
Tortilla and Cheddar Topped Beef, Bean and Bacon Casserole
Like many parents, I am always on the lookout for ways to help out at my kids’ school, without, well, doing things that I hate the idea of doing. For example, some parents don’t mind working with accounting, and they end up holding the position of treasurer in their PTG or PTO. Bless those people…
Warm Beans and Spinach with Sun-Dried Tomato Yogurt Dressing
April is turning out to be colder than March, in one of those weird early spring Ohio twists. I actually had hot chocolate before bed twice this past weekend, and Sammy’s soccer practice tonight was out and out freezing. Alex has a cold and my throat has hurt intermittently for the last week. John is…
Sun-Dried Tomato and Mushroom Bean Stew
I was mourning our nice weather, because I had just acquired Crescent Dragonwagon’s Bean By Bean: A Cookbook: More than 175 Recipes for Fresh Beans, Dried Beans, Cool Beans, Hot Beans, Savory Beans, Even Sweet Beans! and felt like nothing in it was weather appropriate. It is not yet fresh bean season,but it was unseasonably…
Punjabi Rajma, Adapted (Indian Kidney Bean Stew)
I wonder what Indians in India think of those of us in America, who are so attracted to their cuisine when it is cold, blustery and snowy or rainy out? It is one of those great ironies of the culinary world (what? You didn’t know the culinary world could be ironic?), that those spices which…
Potaje de Vigilia (Spanish Fasting Soup with Beans, Thickened with Bread)
This time of year always brings with it a dilemma: you want healthy and light after weeks of feasting but at the same time for many of us it is cold outside and we want warming and hearty. Year after year I seem to turn to the same solution: bean soup.
Indian Bean and Chickpea Stew with Mushrooms
This Indian Bean and Chickpea Stew with Mushrooms is a fantastic and flexible vegetarian curry that will sell anyone on Indian food–case in point my mom loved it! As you will read, the first time I made it, I did not properly record what I did. I made it again in October 2015 and updated…
