Recipe: Fiddleheads, Fiddleheads (Pasta…)

Posted in dinner, for veggies, lunch, tagged , , , , on June 6, 2010 | 1 Comment »

Oh, the fiddlehead. What a strange little veggie. I had literally never seen them until a few weeks ago when I walked into Whole Foods and they were situated right in front of the produce section. I thought they were very cool looking, and the sign said that they tasted like asparagus. Plus, they were [...]

Recipe: Goat’s Milk CHEESE!

Posted in dinner, how to, lunch, recipes to impress, snackies, tagged , , , , , , on February 28, 2010 | 4 Comments »

I finally got around to hauling out my kit from Urban Cheesecraft and making some queso. And it was AWESOME. I love making things that you usually have to buy (marshmallows, anyone?) because it makes me feel oddly powerful. Like, eff you world! I can MAKE SHIT. If the zombie apocalypse came tomorrow, you would [...]

Recipe: Crab Like Dad Makes

In case you haven’t guessed, this is crab the way my dad makes it. It’s not much of a recipe, more of a “throw everything in there and mix well” sort of deal, but I’ve never had crab this way unless it’s with my dad. Here in San Francisco (back home for winter break, woo!) [...]

Recipe: Cheesy Stuffed Acorn Squash

I know I talk about this all the time and you probably want me to shut up, but I’m a recent west coast transplant. In California, we get produce all year round. It’s awesome. The local variety changes, so in the winter we get lots of root veggies and greens, but the produce is there [...]

Recipe: Spring Onion Pizza with Sweet Peppers and Fresh Sausage

I’ve begun to really appreciate pizza as a delicious way to use up veggies and meats that you otherwise might not think to use together. When in doubt, put it on a pizza! Tasty. Pizza is also an amazing dish to make with kids. My Mom used to make pizza with my siblings and I [...]

Recipe: Chicken Pho

I am a Pho lover. LOVER. I eat mine with hoisin, basil and lots of lime. I typically get the rare beef stuff when I get it out (because I like my meat to be nearly raw) but I make chicken pho when I’m at home. This isn’t my recipe, sadly. It is the first [...]

My first soup recipe! I originally got this recipe from Rachel Ray-her Greek Wedding Soup. I changed it just a little, added chopped kale and I made it avoglemeno. Avoglemeno is a traditional Greek sauce made of eggs and lemon that is added to soup. Avoglemeno soup is usually made with chicken and rice (that’s [...]

This is my favorite meal idea right now. It’s quick and super-delicious. I got the original recipe from foodnetwork.com but I don’t use the actual recipe anymore, and the one below isn’t verbatim. Ingredients:1/2 Lb ground beef1 pkg (16 oz) of egg noodles1TB olive oil1 tsp (ish) of some kind of grill seasoning, like McCormick’s [...]
