So much for Cookbook Week being only one week. Between Spring Break and more cookbooks arriving at my door, I didn’t have a chance to get to more than last week’s Food: Vegetarian Home Cooking and  Homemade with Love reviews. My apologies! Let’s start this week off with a cookbook that was sent for me [...]

Between the finches visiting our bird feeders and the trees starting to blossom, spring is certainly in the air here in northeastern Georgia. We’ve even managed to eat a couple of dinners outside on the deck, though we had to wear light jackets and sweaters. Even though it’s warming up, there’s never a bad time [...]

Making pasta is a bit of an ordeal of my house, since I have to make regular whole wheat pasta as well as gluten free pasta. It’s made even more difficult because I have a 20-year-old Jenn Air range with only two working electric burners and two grill-like burners that take forever to heat up. [...]

I’m a big fan of Greek yogurt as a healthy substitute for sour cream, so when the folks at Voskos challenged me to create a recipe using one of their yogurts, I couldn’t resist. However, since they have so many flavored Greek yogurts, why not give one of those a try? I love figs, so [...]

Last month, I made a small pledge on one of my favorite blogs, No Vacation Required, that I would inspire people to join the Meatless Monday movement by posting more Meatless Monday recipes. Well, I’ve failed miserably. Between family stuff, work and health issues (a possible torn rotator cuff that’s keeping me from sleeping well [...]

As I promised a few days ago in my post for Gluten Free Asian Cobb Salad, here’s another San-J recipe by Carol Kicinski of Simply Gluten Free.

  It’s been awhile since I’ve done a Meatless Monday post. Frankly, they’re a bit of a challenge since I usually cook around some sort of animal protein I can find in my freezer like venison or fish. Even so, it’s not much of a challenge for anyone to substitute slices of firm tofu instead [...]

Meatless Monday has become the new norm in many schools and homes. After all, it’s a great way to get kids to eat their veggies. However, like many moms, I’m concerned that if I cook up a meatless dish my kids won’t get enough protein to keep them full and satisfied. One way around that is [...]
