Rhubarb Goodness
Thank goodness I didn't throw out the last of the season's wilted rhubarb. Feel free to cook it at it's peak, but cut off the ends of week-old rhubarb and you've still got the delicious makings of a loose jam, ice cream sauce, fresh fruit drizzle or BBQ ingredient. Please excuse the odd measurements. IContinue reading “Rhubarb Goodness”
Heat Wave Summer Corn Salad
It's either this, or watermelon. You can make it in any weather, but stove free cooking makes best sense in summer. Even children don't usually object to corn. And you can sub just about any raw or cooked veg. 'Nuff said – it's hot. 4 ears of corn, cut from cob (yes, raw) Giant handfulContinue reading “Heat Wave Summer Corn Salad”

No Regrets Antipasto
My magazine copy is tattered, but the link works just as well. Every time I make this app I thank Ina Garten out loud. It's super easy but tastes like lots of effort was made. Plus it's summer heat friendly. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/roasted-artichoke-salad-recipe/index.html Consider this one for July 4 and beyond. Don't forget to hide some forContinue reading “No Regrets Antipasto”
Last Minute, 3 Ingredient Salad
This was a big hit at book club this week. I wish (wished?) it was more challenging. I think it will become a summer entertaining staple. Try it. Chunks of watermelon Chunks of feta Finely minced dill That's it. Alternatives include, mint replacing the dill or adding some spicy pickled pepper. Or try threading cubesContinue reading “Last Minute, 3 Ingredient Salad”
Every (any?) Day Hash
So I got two new boy dogs (see photo, below) and I have had less cooking time lately. Not to worry. Necessity being the mother of invention, I threw everything together in a hash this week that I think came out pretty well. Start with leftover potatoes – if I steam them for anything, IContinue reading “Every (any?) Day Hash”
Among the World’s Easiest Appetizers
Seriously, it's hard to make this one complicated. Also I love the jarred white beans from my Italian grocer and am always looking for ways to use them. It's gluten free! Vegan! Cheese lovers can add that too! Roasted peppers can replace the tomato! Am I shouting?! Take one jar or can of your faveContinue reading “Among the World’s Easiest Appetizers”
Not Key Lime Pie
Or…a great no bake citrus dessert As my guy pointed out this holiday weekend, we've come a long way. As in, I was trusting him to shop for the groceries, even when company's coming! By coming a long way, I'm pretty sure he meant I've given up a touch of control. I prefer to lookContinue reading “Not Key Lime Pie”
Dressed to Thrill
You will eat KALE and you will like it! Seriously it’s all in the dressing, at least in this case. For 17 years I’ve tried to make children eat salad. Recently, my eldest made a turn for the raw produce with Caesar-style dressings. Ding, ding, ding! Why did I keep trying vinaigrette’s?!! Now I justContinue reading “Dressed to Thrill”
