Of Eggplant, Zucchini, and Burittos

Having been able to devote some time to cooking this weekend and today, I decided to try out some new things. Each night offered its own challenges, though, and a much different approach to cooking. Sunday night is “big meal” night here. Its developed into family tradition that I spend a lot of time

Tofu Success!

Despite not feeling well, TPE wanted dinner last night. Perusing the ingredients in the fridge and taking TPEs request for something light into account, I settled on a stir fry. Since become vegetarians, these are the moments where I have attempted to make tofu edible. These moments have not turned

Salmonella Outbreak

On the off-chance you haven’t seen it, there is a significant salmonella outbreak in the United States right now.  The source seems to be eggs.  This guy seems to be the main source of the infected eggs.  He sucks.

No Cooking for Me!

Yum-Oh!

Goodness no, I won’t be posting about Rachel Ray.  She’s fine and all for what she’s trying to do, but I don’t have much interest in what she cooks.  No, I’m going to post about dinner last night and for once an annoying TV aphorism seem to fit the bill. The menu last night was [...]

Guest Recipe: Lentil Croquettes

A friend from high school recently asked me for a lentil recipe because (to paraphrase) “she was tired of eating mushy lentils with no flavor.”  I dug up this link to a recipe from Deborah Madison’s cookbook that is fun, yummy, and not too hard.  You can find it linked here, with appropriate credit
