I’m starting to wonder how many vegetable soups there can be out there. So many of them appear to be the same thing.

Pan-Fried Salmon Sandwich with Giardiniera Recipe
A few days ago, I came across a recipe for a chicken sandwich. I thought about how nice it looked and about how much I’d love to enjoy something like it. After a moment of pondering, I came up with the wonderful idea of swapping the chicken out for salmon. After all, salmon is one […]
Apple Salad with Littleneck Clams & Scallops Recipe
We’ve been on a seafood kick lately. Lobster, salmon, scallops, mussels and littleneck clams to be exact. While the original goal was to find and enjoy new and exciting recipes, that goal is somewhat morphing into learning the various methods for getting as many nutrients as the seafood we eat can offer. For example, did […]
Italian Mussel Soup Recipe
I don’t know if I mentioned this here, but I recently purchased a gigantic Italian cookbook from a used book sale at a nearby ski mountain. The organization that was selling it was a local library. The price was four dollars and since the book weighed about ten pounds, I decided to grab it while […]

Quick Curry Noodle Soup Recipe by Curtis Stone
It may not look like soup, but this dish certainly is considered one. There’s quite a bit of very tasty broth that isn’t seen in this first photo that adds to the presentation. I loved this dish. I haven’t combined white fish and shrimp in such a long time and all that protein hit the […]
Baja Salad Recipe by Curtis Stone
A few days ago, I got somewhat nostalgic for some of my older cookbooks. I’ve been focusing so much on two or three that I almost forgot that I have an entire pile of all different types of books. Some of my favorites have been put out by none other than Curtis Stone and Yotam […]
Bell Pepper, Zucchini & Provolone Cheese Frittata Recipe
Frittatas really are one of the best things to make for breakfast or lunch when you’re hungry and don’t have much time to cook. The preparation of this type of food is so fast and easy. For instance, take the frittata that I’m about to post. All it took to prepare this little bit of […]
North African Spiced Soup Recipe
This certainly has been a soup filled autumn. I don’t know how many soups I’ve prepared since the beginning of September, but it’s been quite a few. I don’t post them all here on this blog because some of them are simply “filler” soups, meaning I throw something together and store it in the fridge […]
