I first wrote about mussels a few months here and it was the first time I had ever made mussels. Since then I have made that recipe a few times and it continues to be delicious.
Mussels are something that I make when I have the apartment to myself. My [...]
A few months ago I was at this great shop in my hood called Culinarium trying to use up a recent Groupon purchase. Culinarium takes the idea of being a “locavore” to another level and only stocks products made/grown in Ontario. For awhile I would buy my bacon there all [...]
So one of my fave “celebrity chefs”, Ina Garten has a new cookbook out called How Easy is That?. I’ve had good times pouring through it and deciding what to make. The other day I was craving a nice big bowl of pasta so I gravitated towards her “Weeknight Bolognese” [...]
After my fun cottage weekend I was gifted with a ton of kale. Kale isn’t something that I would normally buy so I wasn’t too sure what to do with it. Of course I could prepare it like I would spinach or some other dark, leafy green but I wanted some [...]
The other day I was at home with the day off and got hungry for lunch. I didn’t want to buy lunch because I had bought breakfast so I started rummaging in my fridge to see what I had. The day before I (on a whim) bought some packaged gnocchi so [...]
Recently I’ve been feeling like I eat a lot of meat. Sure my body has been craving it but I was starting to feel like I need to reign those voices in. I’ve never been one of those people that HAS to have meat all the time, in fact I typically eat [...]
I’ve had Marcella Says… by Marcella Hazan for years but rarely use it. There’s no real reason why I don’t turn to it more often. I once made a salmon recipe (that I blogged about) that turned out fantastically. I blame it on the fact that I have a bunch [...]
I was reading the Food Section of the New York Times and stumbled upon this recipe for a risotto-style pasta dish by Mark Bittman. I love risotto and I love pasta so I figured I’d see how this would all work out.
It was kind of labour intensive for no reason! The [...]
I’m normally so on top of my Barefoot Bloggers posts. I’ve had this made for a few days but have been kind of lazy with doing a write-up. Oops!
This week’s pick comes courtesy of Cat of Delta Whiskey. I enjoy the pasta so was not opposed to giving this recipe a [...]
In all fairness I like to post about recipes that I didn’t so much love. Linguie and Clam Sauce is not something I’ve EVER made. Occasionally I’ll order it when I go out (usually in a tomato sauce) but I have to be in the right mood. I was grocery shopping a few weeks ago [...]
