Whatever your idea of healthy food is, this dish is about 180 degrees away from that. But it is also insanely delicious - a cheese lover's dream. And luckily it is so rich that you can't really eat much of it! I served this as a side at Hunter's birthday dinner. The other dishes were grilled ...
Sometimes you put two things together and an amazing new twist is added to life. Kind of like peanut butter and chocolate, or chips and guacamole. This new creation becomes a stand by that you return to time and again. Your friends and family members ask for the recipe. You have created a ...
This isn't really a recipe so much as an assembly line, so make sure you use really ripe tomatoes, good french bread and fresh garlic. The picture is not the pure form of Pa amb Tomaquet (we had that last night and let's just say the photos didn't turn out so well) but you can get images here. ...
Roast fish is hard to beat, if it hasn't been cooked so long that it dries to an unappetizing fish leather. How long is long enough, but not too long you ask? Impossible to say. It depends on thickness and fat content, not to mention the stuffing variable. Basting helps but most require ...

Step 1: Make the Dough
I do this dough quick and dirty, and by that I mean I don't measure anything out except the yeast. But don't worry, it will turn out great. Start with putting one teaspoon of instant ...
Ok, so I was holding it up to catch the light, I promise. No, we weren't worshiping a tomato sandwich but if there was a sandwich that deserved holy status, it would be this one. Soft, slightly sweet bread (made fresh by the Pennsylvania Dutch...no Wonder bread for us!), thin layer of mayo, ...
Texas summers are hotter than most of us like, but one of the pleasures to look forward to is the annual peach harvest. The sun's heat does some amazing things to those succulent little globes of sweet tartness. From hard green orbs they convert to tender, juicy delicacies that are ...
Don't you just love that recipe title? It looks like somebody threw the alphabet into a food processor. This is a quick dinner for tired fishermen, or a big hassle getting ingredients for everybody else. Since we fell into the tired fishermen category the other night we took advantage of ...
