There is something kind of romantic about serving a Cornish Hen to your Honey. Smothered in butter and lots of sage from the garden this dish just serves up yummy goodness. With a side of love and potatoes… It was the perfect date night meal… Continue reading

Mushroom & Gruyère Soup

Last weekend I made a cheese sauce that I like to serve with my Baked Sweet Potatoes. Well, today I paired the sauce with the mushrooms I had in the refrigerator that needed to be used. What a great combination…the nutty cheese pairs beautifully with the earthy mushrooms. I have to say it was my best mushroom soup yet! Continue reading
Herb Marinated Curly Shrimp with Fresh Dill Flowers: Revisited

Dill is again growing in wild abundance in my herb garden…so I’m revisiting a dish that is a perfect use of some that lovely dill…”One of the things I love about dill are the yellow flowering dill tops. These flowers are not only beautiful, but they are also edible. They have a very concentrated dill flavor and look stunning on any plate. If you have dill in your garden I encourage you to use the flowers. Just for fun and to impress my lunching friends I cut the shrimp in half lengthwise so when I cooked them they would curl up. It also creates a better bite for a salad or appetizer”… Continue reading
Zucchini Fritters with Tzatziki and Gyro Lamb

My garden has started producing zucchini, zucchini and more zucchini. I love to use my julienne peeling tool to make angel hair like zootles, but sometimes something other than zootles in nice. Lunch today was just delicious and if the tomatoes were not green I would have added some of them too! It was light, fresh and just down right good. Continue reading

Spinach & Cheddar Quiche
Here we are… Together Alone… Lot’s of time to cook, cook, cook! For lunch I decided to use some frozen spinach to make my quiche. I usually use fresh but desperate times and all. To my pleasure I found it even better! Continue reading
Sweet Potato Fries With Swiss & Gruyère

While we are all being ‘Alone Together’, I find I am really missing some of my favorite restaurants and foods they made. One of the things I miss is sweet potato fries. While I don’t fry at home, I decided to make them my healthy baked way. Coating the fries in egg whites gives them the crunchy outside without the fat. Then topping them with a lovely sauce of cheese didn’t make me feel so bad. They were really delicious! Continue reading
Spinach & Chicken BBQ Pizza

This pizza is so good… Rich with the buttery caramelized onions on top, you just can’t wait to take another bite. And I never get tired of Spinach or BBQ. My Hubby and I devoured almost the whole thing! This is one I will definitely be making again. Continue reading
