Posted on July 25, 2016 | 2 comments

If you have been a reader for very long, you have probably picked up on the fact that I love to eat smoked foods. Which is sort-of different for someone that doesn’t eat meat (besides fish anyway). I put this smoked tofu recipe into lots of dishes. I love smoked trout, and use it in everything from salads, dip, sushi, and savory pancakes. Well, here is another food I like to put on the smoker. Smoked Jalapenos in Carolina Mop Sauce will blow your socks off! Continue reading →

It is finally Friday. Are you all looking forward to the weekend? Of course you are! The weekend is the time period where we can catch up on life and have some extra time for ourselves.

Mushroom Pecan Empanadas

Posted on June 8, 2016 | 2 comments

Making food from scratch is often times more time consuming. There are plenty of reasons to do it, however. The first, and my personal favorite, is that making your own food allows you to control the ingredients used. You can also make it exactly how you like it, and personalize it for others that you cook for. This mushroom pecan empanadas recipe is time consuming, but totally worth the effort!

Stack of Whole wheat naan

This recipe was inspired by my standard I can make that! attitude. The local Indian restaurant makes delicious naan, and I just had to have some at home for when we make curry. You can find naan at the grocery store, but it is just not the same as fresh. We can’t have curry at home without whipping up a batch of this delicious naan! Continue reading →

Root Vegetable pockets with spinach

Earlier this week I shared a recipe for Roasted Root Vegetables with Parmesan Wheat Berries. We loved this combo of veggies with creamy cheese and nutty wheat so much that I found another way to enjoy those flavors. These pockets are stuffed with lots of veggies, given a good smear of goat cheese, and topped with mustard-y glaze! Continue reading →

Root Vegetables plus Brussle Sprout

Roasted root vegetables are a wonderful staple of the season. Enjoy as many root vegetables as you can now, because soon spring and summer produce will be back. I added one vegetable to this mix that is not a root vegetable: Brussels sprouts! It is also a seasonal veggie, that grows best in colder temperatures, and I couldn’t make this dish without something green! Continue reading →

I love watching football all season long. Football Sundays are cherished for us when the fall rolls around. It is special because there are so few games to the season, in comparison to other sports. We huddle around the couch, spending time together enjoying copious amounts of football food! I love to experiment with all kinds of foods, finding the most fun and creative to eat for those special days! Continue reading →

Green Tomato Mince Pie

Posted on December 20, 2015 | 9 comments

This was my favorite pie recipe as a kid. Grandma told us kids that it was apple and raisin pie, because otherwise we (I) might not have eaten it! Green tomato mince pie is different from most pie recipes because it has a tart tanginess that comes from the unripened tomatoes. This pie is heavily spiced with cinnamon and allspice and is perfect for the holidays!
