Cranberries with Jezebel SauceIf you don't care for the tart tang of cranberries - try this. My dear friend, Gail, serves this dish her way frequently and everyone likes it because it is sweet & spicy and just tangy enough. A great condiment. I've modified Gail's recipe a tad and share it with you. Cranberries will no longer be a Thanksgiving side dish. This… |

Cauliflower & Potatoes ~ Indian styleI have never been a really big fan of cauliflower, but I love potatoes and spices. This dish, known as 'Alu Ghobi', has long been a favorite vegetable side dish in my kitchen. It is simple, easy to make and very healthy for you. One seldom finds a cauliflower dish on the average restaurant menu. But you need not be a… |

Texas Chuck Wagon Pinto BeansThis dish is all about FLAVOR. San Antonio and Ft. Worth are my two favorite places to be when in Texas. This recipe was inspired by some dining experiences there and, to my palate, is as Texas as bluebonnets in Spring. Sweet and spicy, richly textured, these beans cry out for anything BBQ'd, grilled or broiled. Corn on the cob,… |

Anyone Can Pickle! Cherries, Sweet, Spicy and Fast!I've always been interested in pickles, preserving and canning. I guess it's my inner squirrel speaking. The little squeaky voice in my head in the middle of summer that says "save all those wonderful fresh fruits and vegetables you see now, its going to be a long cold winter". I love looking into my larder when the rain is… |

Bye Bye Blues, A Quick And Spicy Bean DishI have a small confession to make. I love trick vegetables. You know what I'm talking about, the orange cauliflower, the red squash, the black garlic. So you can imagine my surprise and delight when the gang at Lunita Farm showed me a basket of dark purple green beans at the Saturday Farmers Market. I'd never seen anything like… |

Squash In A Spice Paste Done Pronto!This has been one hell of a week, one of those 7 day stretches that includes everything on lifes' smorgey...except dental. Of course the week's not over yet. It's been a week of some nerves, some loss, some traveling, some stress and the general sense of just being unable to catch up. That said, I can't wait for Monday to start the… |

Charred Eggplpant And Peas, A Perfect Barbecue Side Dish.Back where I come from when stuff gets charred and there's not a barbecue involved, it's not a good thing. Charring usually involved opening a lot of windows, smoke alarms, yelling and calling the local take out.."Don't Cook Tonight, Call Chicken Delight!" The idea of deliberately charring something may seem scary, but believe me… |

Full Of Beans! A Great Barbecue Side Dish.Beans. What can I say about beans? That they're delicious, economical, easy to prepare, store well for Armageddon and are super tasty??? Yes, they're all that and a bag of kale. In fact they go great with kale, but that's another issue. Beans are nutritious, high in fiber and a great source of protein. Which brings me back to… |
