Peas with Celery Root

Peas with Celery Root by K. Garner

This recipe is directly from the Epicurious website. Celery root, a popular fall vegetable, tastes like a cross between celery and parsley. This is the left-most item on this dinner plate. I served it with No Peek Stew over butter noodles and homemade Miracle Boule bread.

Sauteed Swiss Chard with Onions

Sauteed Swiss Chard with Onions by K. Garner

This is Yummy and makes your Swiss Chard taste the best it can. This is a four-star recipe from Epicurious. The picture shows brown bits that might be mistaken for bacon; those are the caramelized onion pieces. By the way, I fixed a baked potato with butter and sour cream and put a mound of this on top; it pretty much rocked.

Mexican Rice

Mexican Rice by John Spottiswood

I was looking for an improved Mexican Rice recipe, so I adapted this one from the America's Test Kitchen cookbook. I used many of the same ingredients, but instead of baking it, which seemed like a waste of energy, I finished it in my rice cooker. The result was a very flavorful and wonderfully textured mexican rice. Browning the…

Dilmah Rose With French Vanilla Tea-Smoked Fish by Blackswan

Inspiringly aromatic, with a medium bodied floral note, the flavour of Rose with a hint of French Vanilla combines with Ceylon tea in a perfect embrace. The refined Rose With French Vanilla Tea is simply perfect for my Smoked Red Snapper to usher in the New Year!

Pineapple (Cherry) Squares

Pineapple (Cherry) Squares by Joanne

At first I was confused then I finangled my way around all the directions and came up with a wonderful tasty dessert. Originally Pineapple Pie Filling was required. The store didn't have it. I used cherry with drained pineapple tidbits. What a hit! I wouldn't do anything different even if I COULD find pineapple pie filling.

Chopped Salad with Sweet Basil Dressing

Chopped Salad with Sweet Basil Dressing by John Spottiswood

A few months ago Lora Krulak sent Nancy and I her cookbook Veggies for Carnivores. The small book is packed with a lot of recipes and variations which are tasty and easy to make. One of our favorites was this salad recipe. We've used the dressing on multiple salads now, but the first we tried it on was this chopped salad. We had…

Potato-Eggplant-Bake

Potato-Eggplant-Bake by Rich H

This recipe was developed as a result of a little challenge to our readers. Several were asked to name one of their favorite food ingredients with the idea that once I had the number of responses I asked for I would create a recipe using those ingredients. Thankfully they made it pretty easy on me this time around. No strange…

Alton Brown Lentil Soup

Alton Brown Lentil Soup by John Spottiswood

I adapted this recipe from one by Alton Brown. I added spinach, potatoes, and scallions and removed grains of paradise. Our whole family really enjoyed this recipe. I made it alongside an Indian curried lentil soup recipe, and while both were good, this was the hands down winner. If you're looking for a tasty, hearty, and healthy…
