I spent all weekend frustrated by the terrible light, brought on by extremely dark, stormy skies. And then slowly became aware of what was going on in the world around me, and was grateful that all I had to worry about was lighting for food photography. The devastation in Texas and Oklahoma has been just…
Weeknight Ground Beef Stroganoff with Rosemary, Yogurt and Mushrooms
I have a real fondness for fusion-esque twists on midwestern comfort food. Maybe it is my way of satisfying both my midwestern, traditional upbringing and my completely international adult palette. Or maybe I just like the unexpectedness of it. Truth be told, this particular dish is not shockingly unexpected to me given that I grew…
Indian Inspired Braised Beef Curry
I am riding an insane high as I type this. Now if you hate basketball, college sports, or just plain sports, feel free to skip to the recipe (don’t skip that–it’s outstanding). I was the class of ’95 at the University of Michigan. For those of you not keeping track, that is the same class…
Chicken Noodle Soup with Mushrooms, Ginger and Chinese 5 Spice
It got worse before it got better, folks. At this point it honestly feels like all of December went by in a blur of holiday baking and upper respiratory infections. The baking you already know about. The flu came right after Thanksgiving followed by 2 different bouts of strep throat followed by the nastiest of…
Pasta Alla Boscaiola AKA Italian Beef and Noodles
I’ve had canned beef on the brain lately. In recent months, I started actually paying attention to my Google Analytics, where I discovered that by far and away my grandmother’s Beef and Noodles is my most popular post. I cannot help but find this a little funny because this blog really does not specialize in…
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…
Eat Write Reatreat 2011: Fettuccine in Bianco with Asparagus, Mushrooms and Asiago Cream
As most of you know, I attended Eat Write Retreat this past weekend. I am (I think) one of the last attendees blogging about it–it amazes me how fast people got their review posts out. I needed time to sleep, to drive home, to sleep, to relax, to process the entire event, to sleep some…
African Peanut Chicken Stew
African Peanut Chicken Stew is a delicious and comforting one pot meal that is easily made year round with canned tomatoes. I loved this dish so much that I have made it several times, and in February 2016 I updated the photographs, although I left one of the originals for posterity’s sake. Happy New Year!…
Hunter Chicken Stew
It’s that time of year again, when packages of canned tomatoes start showing up at my door. I love my job as a blogger! This year I actually got packages from 2 companies, Muir Glen and Red Gold. I am excited to try the Red Gold, a regional canned tomato company, but I started with…
