Coconut Lime Macaroons

Six days down and two to go. The eight-day Passover holiday is nearly over and we’ve run through our cookies and our brownies and our sponge cakes. Time to make macaroons. I grew up thinking of macaroons (as opposed to the French macaron) as Passover cookies. My mother would buy a couple of cans of [...]

Recipe Monday: #GoJunkFood: Loaded Fries – Two Ways!

Chris at Blog Well Done inspired (instigated? dared?) me and Elle of Elle’s New England Kitchen (one of my regular co-conspirators in gastronomic excess) to concoct Loaded Fries for a first-ever #GoJunkFood extravaganza in hedonism. For my first offering, I enlisted (however unwittingly) a group of my friends who came over Saturday night to playtest [...]

Recipe Monday: HHDD: Blueberry Cheesecake Pots & Blueberry Almond Biscotti

I was flattered when Mardi of Eat. Live. Travel. Write. invited me to participate in the newly-revived (by Denise of Chez Us) “Hay Hay It’s Donna Day” monthly cooking event, dedicated to Australian star cookbook writer and home economist, Donna Hay.  I’m always flattered when one of my food blogger friends invites me to participate [...]

Recipe Monday: Passover Rolls

Continuing yesterday’s discussion, I said that we’re not permitted to eat any yeast-raised breads during Passover. But we all still have to go to work and the kids have to go to school, so what are we supposed to do about lunch? I remember, as a kid, having to go to school with sandwiches made [...]

Recipe Monday: Elegant Freezer Chicken Two Ways + Oven-Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Fingerling Potatoes

It’s still Monday, right? I really wanted to come up with a sexier name for this, but it was either that, or Soccer Mom Chicken. Which one do you like better? What it really comes down to, is the ability to put a healthy and delicious meal on the table in a limited amount of [...]

Recipe Monday: Black Bean Chili Sloppy Joes & HBin5

I came home late from work the other night, and even though the temptation was great to order in pizza or take out Chinese, I resisted. I had just baked these light and fluffy burger rolls with the Soft Whole Wheat Bread dough recipe from Healthy Bread in 5 Minutes a Day, and was really [...]

Oh, my. I have just discovered The Buckwheat Pancake. No, no! Not just buckwheat pancakes – THE best buckwheat pancake I’ve ever had! I made these for Sunday breakfast, and had to share them with you. Sure, they’re healthy and low fat, but they’re also so delicious and easy to make, you won’t care! Would [...]

Recipe Monday: 5 Bean & Barley Soup & HBin5 Challenge

Yes, I know it’s Tuesday. That happens a lot around here. In case you hadn’t heard, it’s been downright frigid around these parts for the last week or so – at least frigid for us! And unless you’re living south of the equator, it’s pretty darn frigid where you are, too, I’m betting. Time for [...]
