Homemade Grilled Flatbread

Homemade Grilled Flatbread by John Spottiswood

I couldn't find any authentic pita bread or other flat bread at my local grocery store, so I decided to try grilling my own. It turned out to be really fun and not too difficult. And the taste was amazing. The hardest part was rolling out the dough (I doubled the recipe). Fortunately, I was able to do that while watching a playoff…

Butternut Squash and Apple Soup (with Pressure Cooker Option)

Butternut Squash and Apple Soup (with Pressure Cooker Option) by Salad Foodie

Inspired by a recipe from New Paradigm Cooking (Sandbach, Terranova and Ware), I chose to forego the cookbook’s recommended 30 minutes simmering time in a stockpot, for a pressure cooker rendition which cut the cooking time to well under 10 minutes…

Raw Vegetable Salad for a Crowd

Raw Vegetable Salad for a Crowd by A.L. Wiebe

Like many of my recipes, this one has been hanging around since the '70's, and it is always a huge hit. I have never tried to alter it in any way, as I've never felt it needed it; but if anyone has any suggestions, fire away! It takes a bit of planning, as it needs to marinate overnight, but it's well worth it. Because it makes such…

Roasted Potatoes, Carrots, and Onions

Roasted Potatoes, Carrots, and Onions by John Spottiswood

This is a great side dish for roast beef, pork, or lamb. It would also be great with any grilled meat. The recipe is adapted from an America's Test Kitchen recipe that included brussels sprouts and excluded the onions. I love the flavor that the caramelized onions add to the potatoes and to the gravy if you make it, so I think they…

Kale with Kalamata Olives

Kale with Kalamata Olives by Salad Foodie

Kale is hearty and healthy, and often teams in winter soups with potatoes and beans. But in this recipe, based on Deborah Madison’s Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone, it takes center stage. Quick to prepare it is a pleasant change from other green sides. Don’t let the volume of a one pound bunch of kale scare you off - it cooks down!

Cheesy Hash Browns

Cheesy Hash Browns by Nancy Miyasaki

This is an amazing simple dish that stands up well to much more complicated potato au gratin recipes. I adapted it from a recipe in the Sacramento Bee by Ann Freeman. You may not want to tell your guests how easy it is! That said, this dish was completely demolished at our recent Christmas brunch while more complicated dishes…

Vietnamese Veggie Pho Ga

Vietnamese Veggie Pho Ga by Supriya Srivastava

This is my take on Vietnamese Chicken Noodle recipe, i make it with chicken all the time so decided to do a all vegetarian version for few vegetarian guests. Soy was the obvious choice since its texture is a little meat like plus it is rich in protein so will make for a hearty meal with carbohydrate rich noodles.
