With a focus on sustainable eating.
When I read this week’s SundaySupper theme was “Low & Slow” I knew exactly what I wanted to make and where I would get inspiration from. As regular readers of my blog will know, this site has been taken over by a lot of slow cooking – cooking in a smoker to be exact. After [...]
This week’s Sunday Supper is all about the Skinny. One thing that has helped keep our family less-thick was our move to more vegetarian meals. Most of our decision to go vegetarian 3-4 times a week came from Mark Bittman’s New York Times article “The Meat Guzzler.” Besides the benefit of eating less meat and its more [...]
This week’s Sunday Supper theme is Retro Recipes. I was reminded a couple weeks ago about one of my favorite restaurants when I made some German Lentil Soup from Portland Oregon’s Der Rheinlander. The soup was great, but it was missing something. Something I loved to eat as a child - Jägerschnitzel. It was one of [...]
This is what I was going to make for last week’s #SundaySupper theme celebrating the One Year Anniversary of what “Family Foodie” Isabel started out as a friendly twitter conversation talking about what people were cooking on Sunday evenings. I loved the early chats, since Sunday was a guaranteed day I’d be in the kitchen [...]
One of my favorite things about being part of the SundaySupper bloggers is how the weekly themes make me think beyond what I might normally do as a home cook. This week was definitely one of those times as I had to consider what would I make from my Recipe Bucket List. Problem was [...]
I love participating in the group #SundaySupper where over 50 fellow food bloggers get together every weekend to share our recipes with each other and anyone else on the web. Last week’s Soul Warming theme netted a handful of recipes I couldn’t wait to try. On top of that list was Hezzi-D’s Jalapeno Popper Chicken [...]
Here in California with temperatures falling into the upper 70s it is getting that time of year for a hearty stew or soup. Alright, so it doesn’t feel like the time of year for a stew. Fortunately, it doesn’t really matter what the temperature is outside. I always enjoy a rich, chunky stew. The melding [...]
This weekend’s #SundaySupper challenge is making a dish limited to 5 ingredients. Being a fan of food author Michael Pollan I am very familiar with the 5 ingredient mantra. See Pollan did a book called In Defense of Food that looked to provide some guidance for today’s conscience eater. With so many foods, especially processed [...]
This week’s #SundaySupper is all about apples as we celebrate the beginning of Fall with an Autumn Apple Party. Immersing ourselves into the apple theme we decided to spend Saturday at a couple apple orchards near San Bernadino about a hour and 20 minutes east of Pasadena. Our first stop was Snow-Line Orchard where the [...]
September 16th is Día de Independencia in Mexico (Mexico’s Independence Day) and to celebrate the group of bloggers from #SundaySupper decided to feature Mexican dishes. As someone who has another blog entirely dedicated to my favorite Mexican food — Tacos — I was excited to try making something I have always wanted to attempt. Tacos [...]
