Talk To Me Cupcake! Tasty Bites, Gluten Free!

Talk To Me Cupcake! Tasty Bites, Gluten Free! by kathy gori

I love cup cakes. They're so innocent. begging me to eat them. I especially love mini cup cakes, mini anything actually. To me mini = guilt free. I know in the "reality based community", this is a bunch of horse pucky, but one can dream. The last time I made Gujarati steamed chickpea bread I wondered since it's so good savory, how…

Ellen Straus's Pie Crust Recipe

Ellen Straus's Pie Crust Recipe by Albert Straus

This hefty, absolutely unbelievable crust is what our family grew up on. We love it! The pie crust is thick and tastes almost like shortbread but better. It is an ideal crust for any type of fruit (strawberries, Santa Rosa plums or apples). You will need a spring form type of pie pan.

Aunt Violet's Swedish Rye Bread

Aunt Violet's Swedish Rye Bread by Amos Miller

Swedes have always made hearty, highly flavored breads and rye always seems to play a part, the foundation for many avenues of baking exploration. Aunt Violet was one of my paternal grandfather's sisters. This is her recipe 'from home'. It seems each of the 7 Moller children brought fragments of family recipes with them through…

St. Patrick's Day Pistachio Bundt Cake

St. Patrick's Day Pistachio Bundt Cake by Nancy Miyasaki

I made this cake in advance of St. Patick's Day to test if it would be worthy of that occassion. I was a little bit skeptical given the packaged ingredients, but it turned out wonderfully. Our dinner guests and our kids both loved it! When sliced, the inside of the cake has a nice green tint to it which is not visible in the photos…

Swedish Oatmeal Pancakes

Swedish Oatmeal Pancakes by John Spottiswood

I love my wife's traditional swedish pancake recipe. However, I feel much better when I eat a healthy breakfast of oatmeal, so I tried combining the two. I think the combination is wonderful. It still has the chewy, crepe-like texture of the traditional swedish pancake, with just a bit of nutty whole grain texture. Our kids say…

Bushetta

Bushetta by Benjamin Christie

Bushetta is the Australian version of Italian bruschetta and I reckon it even tastes better too. So instead of using fresh tomatoes, olive oil and basil I use a combination of bush tomato chutney, yakajirri, macadamia nut oil and wildfire spice. It’s best to make them up just before you serve them otherwise the bread gets soggy and…

New York Style Spinach & Goat Cheese Pizza

New York Style Spinach & Goat Cheese Pizza by John Spottiswood

This is the pizza we made for the adults. It was fantastic! It reminded me so much of the pizza Nancy and I used to get from a small by-the-slice place in Hoboken, NJ when we were living in Weehawken. Very fond memories and very good pizza!

Pasta with Grape or Cherry Tomatoes

Pasta with Grape or Cherry Tomatoes by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a great pasta from an island off the coast of Italy that I adapted from Giada de Laurentiis. The roasting of the tomatoes and capers with the bread crumbs makes for flavorful and original pasta. I've served this with and without basil, and prefer it with basil though it is delicious either way.

Delicious combo of proteins. The healthy salad is a great lunch box item and holds well in the fridge for 3 or 4 days (if it lasts that long).
