Good news! I recently purchased a new cookbook that was put out by America’s Test Kitchen. It’s called The Complete Mediterranean Cookbook and it’s got over 500 recipes that look rather incredible. I was looking for something that would expand my horizons and that would offer some recipes from a different culture. This book looks […]
Borscht with Horseradish & Dill Sour Cream Recipe
Making so many new recipes certainly does have its advantages. Back a few years, Laura and I were sort of stuck in a rut. At the worst possible moment, usually around 10pm or later, one of us would ask, “What’s for dinner?” By that time, neither of us had any ambition whatsoever and there have […]
Fennel, Herb & Sprouts Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette
Onward and upward with the salads! Today, following a semi-long line of other fantastic salads, I’d like to share something new that’s quite unique. This is more of a “not so much lettuce, but more of a herb” salad that’s got tons of really great vegetables. If you’re a lover of fennel, keep reading because […]
Olive Tapenade & Baby Greens with Roasted Potato Salad Recipe
I still have a good feeling about this salad. When I was browsing through its recipe, I was sort of ho hum about what the final dish would look like. As I was putting the ingredients together, however, I became much more confident with what I would find as a result. The best part arrived […]
Barley Salad with Beets, Pecans & Goat Cheese Recipe
This is the second in my latest salad series. It’s a good one too because it’s got roasted beets and toasted pecans in it. Whenever those two ingredients are on my plate, I’m a happy camper. This isn’t a traditional salad in the way you might think of one. It’s got some elements of a […]
Spring Mix Salad with Cherries, Snap Peas & Orange Dijon Vinaigrette Recipe
For the next three or so posts, I’ll be sharing some recipes for a few really great salads. We go through “phases” in our house and I guess this one has arrived. So, with this in mind, today’s recipe has to do with the summer season. It includes fresh cherries that are in abundance at […]
Cinnamon Apple & Coconut Crisp Dessert Recipe
I don’t make nearly enough desserts. I’ve come to this conclusion recently. I’ve always been the type of person who only eats what I need to survive. Sure, I like things to taste good, but I rarely embellish. What I need to realize is that desserts are a simple pleasure in life and life should […]
Fettuccine with Cilantro, Mint & Cashew Pesto Recipe

When you’re finished, you’ll be enjoying a very flavorful and robust fettuccine pasta that’ll fill you right up. That’s for sure. […]
Warm Asparagus With Eggs & Maple Vinaigrette Mimosa Recipe
I have recently discovered the absolute best method for cooking asparagus. I’ll tell you, I’ve cooked a lot of asparagus in my day and this is definitely the most tender, color preserving and tasty way to do it. Wondering what I’m referring to? Well, I’ll explain it all below. Don’t worry, it’s really easy. The […]
Pan-Seared Scallops with Pink Grapefruit & Chicory Salad Recipe
I found another great deal on scallops yesterday. This is the second time in a row I’ve done this. I guess not too many people around our area enjoy scallops as much as we do. In my opinion, they are one of the best tasting types of seafood available. A pinch of salt and pepper […]
