The discovery of this recipe has been an absolute game changer for me. I am not a fan of waking up early, I am not a fan of lunch foods, and I am frequently on the go around lunchtime anyway. Between all these issues I frequently end up skipping breakfast and nutritionally skimping on lunch,…
Punjabi Rajma, Adapted (Indian Kidney Bean Stew)
I wonder what Indians in India think of those of us in America, who are so attracted to their cuisine when it is cold, blustery and snowy or rainy out? It is one of those great ironies of the culinary world (what? You didn’t know the culinary world could be ironic?), that those spices which…
Potaje de Vigilia (Spanish Fasting Soup with Beans, Thickened with Bread)
This time of year always brings with it a dilemma: you want healthy and light after weeks of feasting but at the same time for many of us it is cold outside and we want warming and hearty. Year after year I seem to turn to the same solution: bean soup.

My brain feels like Swiss cheese;…

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…
