This is what I have been eating (and drinking) recently:                                              


Roast Beef Sandwich on Country White Toast with Lemon & Horseradish Aioli

September 18, 2013

  I  rarely buy cold cuts, mainly because I can’t eat them fast enough, but on a whim I got some thinly-sliced roast beef from Fresh Direct.  I decided to  spice  it up a bit and put a little  kick  in the pants of the old run-of-the-mill beefy ‘wich, by making a delicious lemon and […]


Roasted Vegetable and Quinoa Salad

August 14, 2012

  After a trip to the farmers’ market, I was inspired to make a veggie dish!  I have only made quinoa one other time, but thought it would pair perfectly with the eggplant and zucchini I picked up yesterday.  This is what I did:   Ingredients (Serves 2 as a main dish) 5 small eggplants […]


Herb Marinated Pork Tenderloin and Brussels Sprouts Slaw

    Pork tenderloin is one of the most delicious and easiest and meats to cook.  There are certainly more involved and decadent recipes out there, but this time I wanted to try something healthy and simple.  I found this recipe for  Herb Marinated Pork Tenderloin  from Ina Garten on the  Food Network  website and […]

  I just love using a leftover baguette to make some delicious French Bread Pizzas!  I usually like to use fresh mozzarella, but shredded works just fine and happens to be what I have in my fridge.  Just throw the leftover baguette into a 400°F oven for six minutes.  Let cool and slice in half, […]


Artichokes with Lemon and Dill Aioli

December 19, 2011

  Tonight I made Artichokes with Lemon and Dill Aioli.  Very simple stuff, and very delicious.  For two servings, boil two large artichokes for 8 – 12 minutes in salted water, until tender when pierced with a fork.  In a bowl, whisk together two cloves of garlic (forced through a garlic press), the zest and […]


Risotto with Portobello Mushrooms and Roasted Asparagus

December 18, 2011

Last Friday night, I had guest over for dinner and wanted to make something special and delicious.  Given the size and set-up of my kitchen (teeny-tiny), risotto may not have been the most social choice as it requires constant attention, but my guest had no problem pulling up a stool and keeping me company while […]
