An “Untraditional” Panzanella Salad
I’ve been wanting to make a panzanella salad for a while now. Every time I see someone making it on a cooking show or read about it in a cook book, I get the urge to make one. Unfortunately, an hour goes by and I forget about it all together! Fortunately for us and all […]
Crispy Duck Salad with a Dried Cherry Compote
We’ve been on quite a duck kick lately. Not that I’m complaining. It’s just so freaking good. We can’t get enough of it. What’s so great about duck, is that it isn’t terribly expensive, so when we see it, we have to buy it. When we roast a duck, we usually incorporate it into a […]
Stuffed Pasilla Peppers with Red Pepper Sauce
Zach and I have this thing that whenever we visit a new place we get a cookbook. Instead of spending money on tees and gadgety-souvenirs (that we will absolutely NEVER wear or use) from our favorite tourist stops, a cookbook is a great way to cherish the memory. It’s useful (if you cook a lot) […]
Baklava – A Great Way to End our Greek Fest!
We thought that baklava would be a great way to end this week that has been almost fully comprised of Greek-inspired foods. We sent Zach’s mom off early this morning and we were very sad to see her go, but we had such a great couple of weeks! Utah was fabulous and despite the snow […]
Stuffed Grape Leaves (or Greek Dolmas)
It’s still snowing. We are on day two of our Greek-fest! We are also on day two of our snow-fest! It is again snowing. Absolute insanity I tell ya. We really have to be thankful though. I mean it hardly did anything in the way of snow this past winter, and we really really needed […]
Pastitsio … (take two!)
So we are going to trace back a couple of months and re-publish a recipe we have already done. One of the reasons we decided to go ahead and do this is because we totally needed some new photos. Also, Zach’s mom is here for a visit. She is Greek and we just had […]
Smoked Salmon and Pesto Pizza
So I’m currently writing this post from the comfort of the backseat of a rental car driving on the Western slope of the Rockies and into Utah. It’s been fun really. We have experienced almost every type of weather you can imagine. From snow, to rain, to sun and more…Well I guess we have yet […]
Ramen Noodle Soup
That’s right, it snowed. Well, it’s snowing. Still snowing. At this point, I don’t think it’s ever going to stop. Oh, and it was almost 70 degrees yesterday. Crazy! We all knew it was coming. How bad it would be? We still have yet to know because it’s STILL snowing. You all know that I […]
Nut Encrusted Pork Tenderloin
Did I mention that I love Sprouts Farmer’s Market? Maybe I did, but I’m going to say it again. I love Sprouts. We got some great items yesterday for the ENTIRE week and didn’t break the bank! I’m hoping this love affair with this grocery store doesn’t end any time soon because I am officially […]
