Recipe: Mushroom Tilapia Casserole with Eggplant Sauce
The flavors here are intense and earthy, and the after-glow is better than the most sought after comfort food. This actually feels as good as it tastes, if that makes any sense.
Recipes
Recipe: Parmesan Broiled Tilapia
This is completely easy, very quick, and always moist and delicious. It is one of my recipes that people (my daughter in California, my sister in Ohio, etc) frequently tell me has become a staple in their homes too, after I shared it with them. I’m sorry I haven’t gotten it onto the blog until now!
Recipe: Ginger, Carrot, Hazelnut Cake with Molasses Frosting
This is absolutely awesome! Truly, this cake is amazingly delicious, and is so moist that it remains terrific tasting days later.
Recipe: Eggplant Caponata Open-faced Subs
It is eleven degrees below zero today, and this makes a heart warming meal that is a bit spicy, but sure to satisfy. It is quick to make, but get all the ingredients together before you start, as the process goes fast.
Recipe: Green Egg Bake
This is good, and even our teenager liked it, who doesn’t think she likes cooked spinach. She told me to make it again!
Recipe: The Perfect Snowy Day Soup
This is a heart-warming, easy to make soup that is great to warm up the toes of shovelers and sledders alike, or to eat fireside for dinner followed by a good book. Give this quick and cozy soup a try!
Recipe: Quinoa Granola Bars
These are good and we like them even though my husband calls them “Bird Seed Bars.”
Recipe: Carrot Gingerbread Muffins with Coconut Flour
I’ve been wanting to try coconut flour (readily available at Trader Joe’s) and these muffins were a delicious start. They are remarkably good and you’d never know they are wheat free. If you try these for your gluten-free friends, you’ll find you make them next time for yourself!
Recipe: Flourless Pumpkin Pancakes
These are quick, easy, delicious, and light– more like crepes than pancakes.
Crescent Rolls Stuffed with…
Of all of the beautiful food we had over the holidays, these two ridiculously easy ideas were especially appreciated by our two older children; both recipes involve the crescent rolls that we get at Trader Joe’s.
Recipe: Warm Black Bean Dip
We made this appetizer for a lovely dinner party we went to this evening. It was a perfect choice for such a cold, rainy night, and everyone liked it.
Recipe: Avocado Crema
Who doesn’t want a new way to enjoy avocados? This is simply delicious and very easy to make. It brings avocados into the realm of a condiment!
Recent Food Around Here
Here is what we’ve been eating lately. Gone for a while are the days of beautiful food photography in natural light out at the picnic table, but the food is just as good.
Recipe: Cilantro Lime Dressing
Harvesting the last of this year’s cilantro from the garden, we made a double batch of this wonderful dressing, which is healthy and light with a yogurt base, while jazzy with garlic.
Recipe: Zucchini Agrodolce
Of all the copious of new zucchini recipes I tried with our summer’s bumper crop, I liked this one the best.
Simple Joys of the Season
We’ve brought in the last flowers of the year and they are all over the house. I’ve been cooking up (and freezing) tons of homegrown…
