We had a very cool, very rainy day here, which was a godsend because it meant I was ok with having the oven and cooktop going all day. And because it meant I did not need to water my garden (yes it is planted) and tree. Or my rhubarb plants. Or the flower bed. You…
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…
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…
Copper Piping and a Layered Tortilla & Tomato Casserole With Butternut Squash Hash and Melted Cheese
I have become pretty good friends with one of the moms from my playgroup, and after spending many playdates over at her house, I have decided maybe, just maybe, she is a good enough friend to witness the chaos I live in at this “tweener” house. She and her twins, who are Sammy’s age, are…
My Admittedly Not Vegetarian Take On Jack Bishop’s Black Bean Chilaquiles
But you could easily make it vegetarian. I do this a lot–take vegetarian recipes for inspiration and then make them not vegetarian (in “supporting cast” ways–like chicken stock and lard). Not usually Indian recipes, but recipes that are vegetarian interpretations of recipes from meat-eating cultures. I mean, I have lard, I personally think it is…
September Green Chicken & Apple Tortilla Casserole
Check it out! We own a hole! At first Alex could not wrap her brain around this one, but now she has really gotten into it. She told us tonight it was HER basement they were building. HER toys would go down there (which granted is what I had told her). She also told us…
Stewed Summer Green Chicken With Beans And Corn
This stew was born of surgery recovery. I am feeling a lot better these days, but still not great. I am smelling strong smells, but not subtle ones, and my head is still congested and full of sinus pressure. And other gross things I won’t mention. So while simple baking continues to relax me, dinner…
What Has Your Oven Done For You Lately?
It has browned my chicken. This is the first browned chicken I have seen in a year. I confess to being one of those people who adores chicken skin (despite knowing better) and this is the first chicken skin to have actually tempted me in quite some time. The kitchen in the house we are…
