Moussaka Mediterraneaneo by Amos Miller

I absolutely love moussakas wherever I find the dish - Greek, Turkish, Arab, Italian - it's common throughout the Mediterranean region. There are myriad variations, of course - just like bread differs, country to country, dishes made of common ingredients differ. One of my favorite recipes is found in Claudia Roden's 'The New Book…

Rotisserie Chicken & Warm Bulgur Salad by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a simple and healthy dish that I adapted from a Rocco gets Real recipe. I intended to serve this as a main dish, and then last minute we were invited to a friends house.

No Touch Turnips Paula Wolferts' Way by kathy gori

This seems to be the week of no touch, no stir, nearly hands off cooking. Easter became a menu of simple, down home Italian dishes that I felt I just had to share even if they're off topic from my usual Indian fare.

Tasty Mushroom Bites, Quick and Easy Party Food by kathy gori

When I was looking for an appetizer to serve at the Trifecta last Sunday, I was constrained by certain family dietary requirements. Some people would eat one thing, others could not eat others. Salad was out (don't ask) soup would be "too filling" according to my mother. What to do. What I needed was a tiny tasty bite. An "amuse…
