This is what happens when you decide to cook up a whole bag of dried chickpeas....they kind of explode on you!!
Fortunately we like them many different ways.
From hummus to falafal and all the new dishes we are trying from 'For the Love of Garlic', (Erin was here and fixed us her ...
It might be a bit early to be going all summer on you guys but I just used this for my summer GCF article so why not deliver it here too. I wanted something light but with enough flavor and substance to make it dinner worthy. We have always gone down the caldo marisco road when doing ...
Another chickpea recipe! This one is chock full of flavor and enough spinach to make Popeye proud. Chana palak is a classic Indian dish made with spinach, chickpeas and tomato. We usually get it over basmati rice at restaurants but at home, we just had it straight up with some naan. And we ...
I know, I know, first lima beans, now brussel sprouts. what is the world coming to? But I promise, if you try this recipe using fresh brussels, you just might change your mind. When picking out brussel sprouts, you want sprouts that are heavy in your hand and with leaves that are tightly closed ...
Most people love to hate on lima beans; saying they are mushy, gross, and disgusting, all with an upturned nose. I understand your hatred, I really do. If all you've had is overcooked or canned limas, you have good reason to think they are only suited to cafeteria slop. But try my method before ...
I'm sure everyone has a very different way of getting dinner on the table; after all, it's a very personal thing dependent on tastes, budget and schedules. We usually eat around 7:30 or 8 every night because of work schedules, so when we get home at 7, neither of us are in the mood for big, ...
This has been one of my favorite dishes for a long time. Its very simple, just cooked cream really, but so delicious in its simplicity. There are an infinite number of additions and sauces you can make for panna cotta, so it can be different every time you make it. Also, there are few ...
So this isn't the healthiest thing in the world, but it is dramatically better for you than most spinach and artichoke dips, and still tastes as good (in my opinion, and according to my taste-testers!).
Spinach Artichoke Dip
Cook 12 ounces of frozen spinach in a non-stick pan over ...
Most of us aren't on the lookout for unhealthy recipes and if you're seriously trying to watch your waistline, you might want to avert your eyes. This is in no way, shape or form a healthy recipe but yum, is it good. We like to have them for breakfast with a big cup of steaming coffee but ...
For some reason the other day I decided to make whole wheat crackers. I had previously tried to make crackers at home when I was about 12 years old. My Dad had given me a great baking cook book with a cracker recipe (which I still have and use as a reference - its a great book!) At the time, ...
