Vegetarian Mushroom and Tomato Linguini
Wild mushrooms are a pleasure to cook as they are delicate and lend newness to a mushroom dish. Sometimes I add in Button or Cremini mushrooms as well as Shiitake mushrooms although Shiitake lend a significantly distinct flavor. Here, simply sauté sliced mushrooms in butter and S&P. Add diced onion and soften. Add diced tomato…
Keto Chunky Avocado ‘n Tuna
Avocado and tuna mixed together with the addition of a bit of mayo, finely diced celery, cilantro, a squeeze of fresh lemon and S&P makes for a satisfying lunch. Is it a salad? Is it a spread? I’ve topped this one with a bit of green onion and freshly ground black pepper.
Grain-Free Coconut Bread
This grain free bread is low carb friendly because it’s made with coconut and buckwheat. Buckwheat is a seed so it’s Paleo, Keto and Candida diet friendly. I’ve blended the ingredients traditionally and also just added and stirred everything at once – because I like shortcuts. The results were the same. This recipe doubles perfectly…
Sweet and Savory Crepes
I use Julia Child’s recipe for the batter. When you blend all the ingredients it will thicken so add water to make it runny so you have a crepe and not a pancake. Crepes should be tender, thin and browned a little. Here, I have made black Forrest ham and Swiss crepes with Hollandaise…
Canadian Cheddar and Chive Farfalle
Begin as usual with your finely diced onion softening in butter on medium high heat. Add your smashed garlic and heat through. Add your flour and heat without browning. Add milk and stirring to blend until it comes to a gentle simmer and thickens. Add your Canadian sharp cheddar and stir to melt. Remove from…
Creamy Basil & Goats Cheese Pasta
Basil and goats cheese are a match made in heaven, simply put. This is a scrumptious dish with just the right amount of freshness and brightness that fresh basil and goats cheese gives a creamy sauce. It will wow your friends and family. Start with your base of butter and finely diced onion softening on…
Summertime Potato Salad
This is my favorite potato salad because it is smooth but has a dilly crunch to make it extra special. Boil your potatoes – Russet, Yukon, New, Red Skinned (whatever you have or prefer – I used peeled russets here) in salted water. Drain and set aside uncovered to let cool. Finely dice sweet onion,…
Grilled Pineapple and Corn Salsa
Cool, crisp, sweet, tangy with a bit of heat – I should bottle it for sale – good with grilled meat, fish or poultry, on a hotdog or in a taco. I think I’ll serve it with seared steak very soon. Grill your whole green onions and freshly cut 1″ pineapple rounds, (core in tact…
Cheese Tortellini Soup
Comfort food made easy. Sauté the trifecta of onion, carrot and celery in butter and in this version add slivered mushrooms. Once your sautéed ingredients are heated through and softened add your chicken broth or vegetable broth and a thyme bouquet. Bring to a simmer and season with salt and pepper then add your “homemade”…
Crispy Roti Mushroom Pizza
Born out of a love for Sautéed mushrooms, this pizza flatbread makes a great appetizer. Please see recipe for Roti bread for the crust. Set oven to 500 degrees Mushroom topping is prepared by slicing a variety of mushrooms-oyster, button, shiitake-any your grocer carries. Sometimes I can find packages of premixed “exotic” mushrooms and that…
Homemade Tomato & Basil Roti Pizza!
Start by making your own crust of flour, a dash of salt and water. Mix to make your dough and set aside to let it relax a little. Roll it out and bake it until done but not brown. Pizza sauce-you can use almost any sauce your imagination will allow. Here pictured is a sauce…
Spicey Vegetarian Cabbage Soup
1/2 stick butter, Marsala wine, 3 cups whole tomatoes, large bottle vegetable juice (V-8), 5 large slivered onions, 5 cups sliced mushrooms (any type) , 5 finely sliced stalks celery, large whole slivered Napa cabbage, 5 bay leaves, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 10 cups vegetable broth or water, Cumin, salt, pepper, apple cider…
Curried Macaroni and Cheese
In this photo I’ve use the classic elbow noodle but I love using penne or farfalle for a bistro flare. It’s best to set a pot of salted water to boil while you prepare your sauce and cook your noodles after you have prepared your sauce so you can mix freshly cooked noodles with the…
Creamy Mushrooms
This is wonderful as an appetizer with wedges of crunchy buttered toast or tossed in linguini. I use a variety of wild mushrooms and sometimes add button mushrooms. Here, I’ve used oyster, crimini, baby portobello and shiitake mushrooms. They are first sliced and browned in butter. When the moisture has evaporated and the color is…
Fresh Nectarine and Cucumber Salad
Clean and juicy, this sweet and savory salad accompanies any main entree and even serves as a lovely refreshing lunch. Wash the nectarines, cucumber and cilantro in cold water and dry. Peel totally or partially your cucumber depending on how bitter the skin is, or whatever is your preference. Medium dice your cucumber and nectarines….
Autumn Harvest Soup
Fall, autumn vegetables, cool days and warm blankets. Soup summons comfort and happiness not only for our palates and stomachs but also for our soul. Butternut squash is a slippery devil to peel, but go ahead and peel, seed and cube the whole thing. Peel and chop in similar sizes your carrot, potato, apple and…
Mushroom and Lemon Angel Hair
Now realizing I should have wiped my cleaver and removed my tongs, I will nevertheless present this dish because who knows, maybe you need this today, although I may update this photo. It’s amazing and easy. If you don’t have a fantastic clever in your drawer you might want to get one and use it…
