Sesame Cookies
Posted on March 31, 2009
These Sesame Cookies are yet another Passover friendly dessert recipe. I wouldn’t necessarily have thought of making cookies with sesame. Why? Because I am surrounded by several choco-holics and bake primarily to their tastes. Let’s just say that the brownie recipe I posted a few weeks ago is still getting good play around here. My

Passover is right around the corner. Given that I’m extra busy with the boys (they have the week off for spring break) I still haven’t settled upon exactly what we’ll be having for our rapidly approaching Seder meal. Below is a rough idea of what I have in mind at this point. I may do

Kale Salad with Grapefruit
Posted on March 24, 2009
Take a look at the picture above. No, that’s not a floating grapefruit. If you look closely, you can see the tip of my younger son’s fingers lifting a grapefruit from the bowl of salad. This quick and easy (and of course gluten-free) salad is delicious anytime of year, though perfect right now as we

Purple Velvet Torte
Posted on March 17, 2009
It’s amazing what you can do without any flour! I made this gluten free chocolate cake using beets. Being “Deceptively Delicious” I fooled my husband. While my children are game to eat pretty much anything I make, my husband is known as the “picky” eater around here. Because of his strong critiques and my perfectionist

Garlic oil? Made in mere minutes? Why yes. This quick and easy gluten free oil recipe can add sophisticated flavor to vegetables, fish or chicken. I’m especially enjoying feeding it to my family during cold season since garlic is a great natural anti-biotic and immune booster. Don’t let the health benefits fool you though, this

McKale
Posted on March 10, 2009
I am lucky enough to say that my boys love to eat kale. There was actually a kale incident the other night whereby I only made one bunch and some grabbing occurred at the table as the boys “fought” over it. Ok, sorry to brag, however this is what sometimes happens in my house. Because

Chipotle Lime Salmon
Posted on March 6, 2009
With baseball back in the picture and our afternoons filled with practices I find myself looking for quick entrees that offer a lot of protein without a lot of work. This Chipotle Lime Salmon is one of those. My husband loved it, pronouncing it blog-worthy after his first bite.
Chocolate Hazelnut Spread
Posted on March 3, 2009
Just the week before last, my favorite food writer from the LA Times came up with a brilliant recipe for homemade Nutella. I haven’t had Nutella since I was a student traveling in Europe decades ago with a EuroRail pass, sleeping in youth hostels. Back then we used to eat the chocolate stuff for breakfast.
