Baked Sweet Potato Falafel Wrap

January 13, 2010

I love the Internet because it makes discovering new recipes so much easier.  What’s even more fun, is it sometimes feels like a game of telephone as bloggers make the same recipe in their kitchens and add different spins and adaptations and those recipes become passed on and adapted.  Such is the case with today’s [...]

Broccoli, Apple and Peanut Soup

October 29, 2009

I’ve already admitted to being a library addict.  I bet you never knew there was such a thing!  I’ve even decided that if I get married someday I would love for it to be in the old wing of the Boston Public Library.  If you’ve visited you’ll understand why.  It’s tremendously beautiful and historic, not [...]

Caramelized Onion and Mushroom Enchiladas with Spicy Pumpkin Sauce

October 27, 2009

I have a confession to make and one I hope won’t get me kicked out of the food blogging community.  I’m not much for pumpkin sweets.  I feel like a bit of a killjoy this time of year when everyone I know seems to be excited about the reappearance of pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin pies, pumpkin oats, [...]

101 Cookbooks’ Roasted Corn Pudding in Acorn Squash

October 19, 2009

As I was planning my meals for the week I realized that although I’ve long been a reader of 101 Cookbooks, I’ve never actually made one of Heidi Swanson’s recipes.  Crazy I know.  There’s only so much time in the world so even though I’m a passionate blog reader I’m not getting to make as [...]

Spaghetti squash stands in for pasta

October 16, 2009

I have mixed feelings about foods that try to masquerade as a stand in for something else.  For the most part I openly embrace them as long as the resulting creation still packs tons of flavor (though it doesn’t necessarily need to replicate the flavor of the original perfectly).  I love Greek yogurt as a stand-in [...]

Two-Potato Latkes and Orange-Balsamic Caramelized Fennel

October 15, 2009

I can’t believe that my vegetable CSA share finishes up at the end of the month. I’ve enjoyed the anticipation of visiting the farmers’ market each Monday unsure of what will look good that week. I’ve loved putting more of my dollars into the local economy and having conversations about how food is grown. On the [...]

Beet Pasta

October 4, 2009

My CSA share is continuing to provide endless amusement. Every Monday I find myself giddy with curiousity about what I might find. I still haven’t come to terms with the fact that this is the last month of my share.  I especially love watching the offerings change from June to October.  The selection has gone [...]

Pad Thai with Tofu and Vegetables

September 7, 2009

While my first class may have not turned out exactly as I had hoped, being back on campus where I went to college was a big dose of nostalgia.  Yes, I’m teaching my course at Boston University, the same place I went to undergrad so it was a bit of a trip to be back. [...]

Low Fat Sweet Corn Ice Cream

August 17, 2009

My waxing poetic about food continues with yet another summer-inspired recipe.   This time the star ingredient is corn.  Being originally from a major corn producing state, corn is inextricably linked with summer for me.  The landscape surrounding my parents’ house is framed by endless rows of lanky corn that transition from pastoral green to pale gold [...]

Lamb Lettuce Wraps with Tomato Chutney and Goat Cheese

August 14, 2009

Still no improvements on the camera front although I did get a tremendously unhelpful e-mail from the customer support team at my camera manufacturer. I despise having to call customer service so I may eventually just give up and purchase a memory card reader.
It’s too bad because my food has been good lately, real good. [...]
