My Favorite Tastes. Mostly food, and a little of everything else. Check it out for restaurant reviews, recipes, and overall food and cooking thoughts!
This dish is a nice alternative to the same old meatloaf. I put a lot of kale in this dish. I eat kale a lot, even though I am not that fond of the taste. It's just so good for you. So, I chopped up a huge handful and underneath all (read full article)
I love stuffed pastas. When presented with the option of fresh ravioli, it is always my ordering choice at Italian restaurants. For this recipe I used a basic tri-color cheese tortellini, but feel free to use any type you like or have on hand.This re (read full article)
My husband loves sausage. He would seriously eat it every meal if I wasn't so controlling of his meal plan.... So, last night when I said I was making pasta with Italian sausage, he was delighted. This meal is one that I make a lot. It is (read full article)
This meatball soup kind of reminds me of a grown-up and healthy version of spaghettios (one of my favorite childhood meals that now disgusts me). I have made this soup before with "o" shaped pasta and that made it really feel like spaghettios. (read full article)
Lately, I have been craving pasta, especially fresh pasta. Fresh pasta is so much more decadent than pasta from a box. It has a smooth buttery texture and goes great with simple, no fuss sauces like the one I made last night. I love these types of li (read full article)
I saw this recipe in the May 2010 issue of Cooking Light and immediately knew I wanted to try it. I cannot remember the last time I had a sloppy joe (probably grade school?) but I remember hating them. I am not sure if it was the can of M (read full article)
I bought some ravioli a few days ago for something and ended up not using it, so I had two packs of cheese ravioli in my fridge that I needed to use. I also had tons of veggies (zucchini, spinach, and bell peppers) so I decided to make a v (read full article)
I make this pasta dish about once a month. It reminds me of the spaghetti my mom used to make when I was a child (except I don't use Prego) - ground beef, onions, garlic, and tomatoe sauce. I add spinach or some green because it adds (read full article)
I know, I know, I use a lot of goat cheese (and lately, a lot of arugula). When I decide I love a certain food, I really love that food. This might be the reason I don't post new recipes every day.....I eat the same foods all the time!Thi (read full article)
If you are a consistent reader of this blog, you might be sick of all the spinach I have been using. If that’s the case, I am sorry! It is cheap and healthy and due to a little snafu with the IRS, I need all the cheap foods I can get.I used frozen (read full article)
As all you readers should know by now, I looooove Mexican food. I cook and eat it several times a week. Usually, it is something simple like a quesadilla. The other night, I made something a little more involved, but still easy, hea (read full article)
This morning I made a comforting and healthy baked egg dish. baked eggs are easy and hard to screw up. Also, this dish is great if you are feeding a crowd because you can stick it in the oven and leave it for 15 minutes; you don't h (read full article)
I made this the other night using vegan ground beef. I thought the fake meat would work, like it worked in my vegan chili, but...not so much. It tasted like mushrooms and fake ground beef. I hate to waste food, but dogs aren't suppo (read full article)
Last Sunday (January 16, 2010) the Golden Globes were aired. I am always a fan of the Golden Globes, but I was especially excited this year because Ricky Gervais was the host. I love me some Ricky Gervais and I love to cook. R (read full article)
For this chili I used vegan ground "beef" and I was impressed (I used Yves Ground Round Original). I was a vegetarian for years, so I consider myself a bit of a fake meat connoisseur. I have tried many different products an (read full article)
I made this lasagna for two of my friends on Christmas. My husband kept referring to them as my "homeless" friends, but I think he actually meant "family-less" friends. They both have families, but neither was going home for Chr (read full article)
A friend of mine recently tried the Blueprint Cleanse and liked it. What she didn't like was the big price tag and the fact that it had to travel all the way from New York City to San Diego. I mentioned that I had done a ho (read full article)
I made this soup on Sunday night and have been eating it all week. (I actually just had some for lunch.) It's healthy, simple and delicious. I usually mix in a little crème fraiche or cheese to make it extra delicious.Tomato Soup-5 (read full article)
Last week, my friends and I were talking (well, emailing) about how great and classic the grilled cheese sandwich/tomato soup combo is. I mentioned that I also like to put tomato slices and/or bacon on my grilled cheese sandwiches and my friend (read full article)
Another butternut squash recipe. Like I said yesterday, if I really like something, I can eat it repeatedly. And...squash is in season right now and inexpensive. Plus they come in so many fun shapes, sizes, and colors, that I just c (read full article)
