Pasta

I found a neat looking recipe for some broccoli and mint pesto a few days ago and noticed that the photo used in the recipe was that of the pesto on top of some spaghetti. I found the image appealing, so I thought I’d try to imitate what was going on in it. I’ve never […]

I made an interesting pasta dish the other night. I’m still thinking about what to make of it. I mean, it was good, but it wasn’t like the more traditional pasta dishes I’ve prepared in the past. The sauce wasn’t “sauce,” per se. It was more like softened vegetables in sort of like a broth. […]

I’m writing this post on Christmas Eve. I’m thinking about all the food I need to prepare for tomorrow. It’s going to be incredible. We’ve got some cranberry salmon as the main entree, some tsimmes, roasted balsamic sweet potatoes and cauliflower stuffing as the sides. For good measure, I’m even throwing in an awesome cranberry […]

Every so often, I flip through my cookbooks to see what I can prepare that I normally wouldn’t prepare. I’m sure you’ve done this too. Some recipes are obvious. You say, “Yup, that’s going to be the first one I make.” The photo is clear and the recipe is simple. It’s a no-brainer. Others, however, […]

I’m not sure I’ve ever tried to make any type of Chinese food, which is strange, because I love it. It’s all about the sauce that make this type of food so good. I may even consider picking up a Chinese food cookbook one day because after putting the dish I’ll share with you below […]

I am rockin’ and rollin’ with these tomato and basil recipes. I think we made some good choices this year when it came to planting our garden. Apparently, there’s a lot you can do with cherry tomatoes, basil and zucchini. These seem to be the big three. Between the salads and the pasta dishes I’ve […]

I was really on a roll yesterday. I made some incredible blueberry pancakes as well as these even better lasagna rolls. Perhaps it’s the cool weather that rolled in recently. It’s inspired me to get up and double up on my cooking. Whatever it is, I ate well and I’m a happy man. The Recipe […]

This is my second go round with this recipe. I had to make it just once more and post it on this website because the last time I prepared it, it was insanely good. This time though, I wanted to change up a few ingredients to make things even better. I’ve been waiting all year […]

Today’s recipe looks much more complex than it really is. All we have here is some pasta in a sauce with a ricotta cheese mixture on top. I enjoy these types of pasta dishes because they’re simple, straightforward and delicious. The Recipe This recipe comes in three parts. First is the pasta and the spinach. […]

It sure seems like I’ve been making a lot of macaroni and cheese dishes lately. The problem is that every time I see a new and different one out there, I feel the need to prepare it to see how it compares to the ones I’ve made before. To be fair, they’ve all been outstanding, […]
