Thai Stir Fried Vermicelli with Ground Beef, Pepper and Basil is Thai style weeknight convenience food, and absolutely delicious. A copy of Thailand: The Cookbook was sent to me by the publishers for the purpose of an honest review. Affiliate links have been used to link to items discussed in this post. Apparently I have…
Noodles and Veggies Stir Fried in an Asian Peanut Butter Sauce
Proof that the brain is a muscle like any other: since my surgery, i.e., since all these weeks of not really using my brain and just reading guilty pleasure regency romances (yes I admit it!), I have writer’s block. Maybe not big time true writer’s block, the way some long suffering novelist might get, but…
Mexican Pasta Bake with Ground Beef and Sour Cream: Using Community Cookbooks
Mexican Pasta Bake with Ground Beef and Sour Cream is the best of American comfort food livened up with healthy vegetables and Mexican herbs and spices. This next installment in my series using community cookbooks comes from the most wonderfully named little book: “…On The Border…By The Sea…” Cookbook Contributed by the Women of The…
Turkish Ground Beef and Pasta: Review of Bruce Aidell’s Great Meat Cookbook
The Good Cook had one of their bundle sales recently. I am hopeless in the face of a good cookbook bundle sale. All it takes is at least 2 or 3 books that I know I want, and I start searching for other books that I think are worth checking out at such fantastic prices. This time,…
#BundtaMonth: Citrus Glazed Spiced Zucchini Bundt Cake
I had a late night Nigella Lawson moment with this cake. You know how, on her cooking show, she is always shown going down to the kitchen late at night to get a plateful of leftovers of whatever she made for the show that day? I try not to do that much, and I almost…
Aloo Chana Saag Chicken Curry
Indian curries are rapidly becoming my favorite go-to meal. In addition to their ease of preparation (as a one pot meal), healthiness, and general tastiness, they are also endlessly flexible and adaptable to the season. They can be lighter or heartier. They can be luscious with braised meat or vegetarian or even vegan (or anywhere…
Ohio-in-July Vegetable Soup, Indian Style
I try not to over-indulge in potatoes and sweet corn. They are both super starchy and they share a distinction–in my family at any rate–as rarely being the only starch on the plate (for example, if we have potatoes in a curry we often then want it on rice). And the sweetness of the…
Weeknight Thai Style Stir Fry
SO sorry for the extended absence! It is spring break this week, and I was gone starting last Thursday at my parents’ house. Also, with the crazy weather we have been having, I have serious spring fever. Not much cooking or baking around here, more like trips to the park and sitting on my hammock…
Herbed Chicken Casserole with Wild Rice, Red Rice and Cranberries
I am going to skip marveling at the weather–everyone in the continental 48 knows this was one weird winter–and just skip to the part that usually comes sometime in April. We are in our fourth year in this house, and every spring I continue to be amazed and grateful that we are so lucky to…
