I realize this means very little to you guys, since when you read my posts is when you read my posts, but holy moly I made this dish tonight and here I am writing about it already! We are all healthy and I am, for the first time since before the holidays, completely caught up…
Coconut Lentil Soup with Potatoes and Peas
The Spiced Life family just got back from a whirlwind trip to Disney World! John got invited to talk at a conference there and we said yes, please! 3 days nonstop parks with rides, princesses, food, princesses, fairies, princesses… So please forgive any typos or just plain incomprehensible sentences. My brain feels like Swiss cheese;…
New Year Noodle Soup
When I was editing the photos for this dish I had the exact same visceral reaction that I did upon seeing the photos at 101cookbooks: I want that soup and I want it now. If you’re a soup lover and a legume lover like me, this dish is pretty much nirvana. It’s simultaneously creamy and…
Penang Pickled Veggies
Congrats to Carol from Wires n Pliers for winning the Red Gold tomato media kit giveaway. She was randomly chosen (using numbers) by Sammy. I have a dilemma when I cook SE Asian celebration food. By celebration food I mean rich, meat-heavy dishes, and I call them celebration food because while they might your or…
Butternut Squash & Chickpeas served on Mixed Grains
This is a great dish to serve in the middle of holiday excess–which I realize we aren’t there yet, but it’s coming. I just bought several holiday cookie magazines, and am excitedly planning what will be gracing my cookie tins this year. But I digress–I was telling you how tasty, easy, nutritious and especially fiber…
Hyderabadi Qabooli (Hyderabadi Pilaf of Rice & Split Peas)
This is actually a post about a tremendously yummy Indian pilaf–although I am sure it looks like an advertisement for cherry tomatoes. What can I say, when summer hits I start putting those deliciously sweet little guys on everything and anything. This is a pilaf that caught my eye when I was looking for stuff…
Summertime Barley Salad
Summer is an occasionally frustrating time for me, because I love one pot meals. And let’s face it, most one pot meals do not really scream summer. Curries, stews, casseroles… these all heat the kitchen and are heavy in the tummy. Which is why I was completely fascinated by Marcus Samuelsson’s “Staples” chapter in his…
Spiced Mahi-Mahi With Masala Hari Matar Pulau (Savory Rice & Green Pea Pilaf)
I am a bad food blogger, because despite having plenty of recipes and photos, when my sister came to visit this past weekend I totally stopped writing. Ooops. This is a meal I served last week, one of my rare “component meals.” For the protein, I served a spiced fish, for the veggie I served…
Super Low Fat Dal #2
By the time this publishes, I will be minus 1 gall bladder. Which is a weird thought. I don’t know why it should be–after all part of my brain is sitting in a glass jar (or something) somewhere, so what should the loss of one non-essential organ matter? But there is just something weird about…
