True Greek Salad
I saw a picture of this salad in a magazine and it reminded me of my expat days. I learned early on in our time abroad that a Greek salad served virtually anywhere except the USA does not include lettuce. … Continue reading
Kale Nests w/ Poached Eggs
I was passing time at the doctor’s office this morning, reading loads of magazines (the doctor was running late…) and found this recipe in one of Martha Stewarts publications. Some people don’t like Martha. I do, a lot. I think … Continue reading
Tapas Mushrooms

I served this at a dinner party last night and people sort of lost their minds. It is so fresh and delicious, it’s redunkulous. Whether or not you like fish sauce, it is integral to this dish and no one, … Continue reading
Beet Slaw

Spicy, Stuffed Tomatoes (Vegetarian)
These are great to take along to a picnic or potluck because they are served at room temperature. If you don’t want to go through the hassle of scooping out and stuffing tomatoes, simply dice up some really ripe and … Continue reading
