How awesome is it, for a foodie anyway, to be back in your own kitchen, cooking away? My friend has a fabulous kitchen, albeit probably designed by people who did not cook much and thus it has some quirky flaws, but in general it was gorgeous, spacious and “easy to operate” (I cooked for them…
Caribbean Black Bean Soup with Roasted Garlic
Don’t you love it when on-a-whim cookbook purchases turn out to be goldmines? I was familiar with Rancho Gordo of course, having purchased their beans more than once. Steve Sando, the founder, has actually come around the Cooking Light Bulletin Board to answer questions, which is very cool. But I had never really planned to…
Spicy Sweet Potato and Peanut Soup with Black Beans
Some of you might think I am on Vicci’s payroll, but I swear her blog is one of my best inspirations for vegetarian (or semi-vegetarian) food. So here I am again, linking you over to The Days Are Just Packed–although of course she originally got the recipe from Lisa’s Vegetarian Kitchen, so this recipe is…
Another Sore Throat, Another Sopa De Lima
I was hemming and hawing over whether or not to post this recipe, when I had a revelation. if I don’t find it weird to provide you with 8 zillion chocolate chip cookie recipes–and similar numbers for lemon bundt cakes, vanilla bundt cakes, blondies, peanut butter cookies, I think you get the point, then why…
Hats Off To The Grannies: Peanutty Spinach Curry & A Kidney Bean In Cardamom Yogurt Curry
Hats off to the Indian grannies. And the Mexican grannies. And their daughters. And basically every home cook who lives anywhere that freshly made flat bread is traditionally served with most meals. Because I’ll be danged if this wouldn’t have been much better with some puffed and delicately crispy pooris (my personal favorite) or some…
Caribbean Chicken Fricassee, Maybe
Caribbean Chicken Fricassee is intense and delicious flavor in one dish, and it is perfect when you want some island flavor. Fricassee: (noun; plural “fricassees”) meat or poultry cut into small pieces, stewed or fried and served in its own gravy. Or so says Wikipedia. At any rate, I guess what I made still qualifies,…
Posole With Eye Of The Goat Beans & Shredded Chicken
So I promised you all I would share that posole recipe from last week. It turned out to be quite timely because I made a decent sized pot of it, we had it for 2 nights, went home for the funeral where I found out my dad had caught strep throat from my niece before…
Tried, True & Comforting Oaxacan Tortilla Soup
I have been holding out on you. Really holding out. My most repeated recipes, the tried and true favorites, of this household, are, for the most part, not on this blog. This is easily explained; the recipes are usually easy fallbacks that I don’t even have a written recipe for anymore. And they are frequently…
Sweet Potato Black Bean Cakes Served With Guacamole With Cottage Cheese
You remember last December when my life got crazy and my posts were spaced way out with days inbetween? And I made all sorts of great food and did not share them with you? Well happily for all involved, I just re-made one of those dishes. Granted you probably would have preferred it closer to…
