As the weather gets warmer, I enjoy making big salads that will keep in the refrigerator for a couple of days. They’re great for a quick lunch or side dish. Serve this dish with chips and you have a great appetizer.Because the avocado is bathed in dressing, it won’t turn brown! If you don’t […]
This is my new favorite breakfast! There’s not much to putting it together, but the combination of olive oil, hearty whole grain bread, half an avocado, salt and pepper makes an incredible treat. The first time I made it, I had lemon olive oil on hand, which made an amazing avocado toast. Regular olive oil […]
I love a good chopped salad that you can eat as a main course. I adore all of the fresh ingredients and that the recipes tend to be very forgiving. You can toss in a little more of this or a little less than that without jeopardizing anything. You can even swap ingredients. For example, […]
I think I’m going to have to get a better picture of this dish. I made it the other night when we had some friends over for dinner. It’s a terrific combination of flavors and textures. The avocado is smooth and creamy (if it’s ripe), the nuts are crunchy and the fruit chewy.
Here are my […]
This Sunday’s NY Times had an article on cold soups written by Mark Bittman. Twelve bowls of beautiful soup were pictured in an online interactive feature . I had some time before my son’s baseball game on Sunday afternoon, so I made a batch. It’s very easy to make and incredibly tasty.
I used my […]
This is a Senegalese salad recipe which is a perfect summer side dish. The savory avocado, parsley and jalapeno are a nice contrast to the sweet mango and orange. I love summer side dishes that are loaded with flavor and involve no cooking.
The directions say to let the salad sit for an hour before serving […]
I made this salad with some fresh eggplant from the CSA. It isn’t the prettiest salad to look at, but boy is it delicious. I love the combination of flavors. It’s a perfect summertime salad because it’s delicious, fresh and very easy to make.
Instead of brushing the vegetables with […]
I tore this recipe out of Coastal Living magazine recently and made it the other night. Wow! If you love avocados and french fries as I do, this is the recipe for you. My husband and I gobbled these fries up. I was really hoping […]
I love avocados. Never used to like them as a kid, but they’ve really grown on me in the last couple of years. I could make a whole dinner for myself out of guacamole and corn chips, and occasionally I do.
Before last night, I had never made guacamole before, and I’m not sure […]
There is nothing better than fresh corn in the summertime. Fresh corn and heirloom tomatoes are two of my favorite summertime viands. My girlfriend Kathleen sent me this recipe a week or so ago. Man, is it good.
I served this for dinner tonight and everyone who tried it loved it. […]
