Grilled Shrimp and Spring Orzo

June 3, 2017June 3, 2017 Barbara

Nothing says spring like fresh local asparagus. The season is about done here and the grocery store stock later on will not be as tender, probably because it’s picked too early wherever it comes from. Our local asparagus, even when … Continue reading Grilled Shrimp and Spring Orzo

Venison Chorizo Frittata

April 19, 2017 Barbara

I was inspired by this dish in the New York Times—Spanish Asparagus Revuelto—which is kind of a scramble with sauteed asparagus and a little (2 oz) Spanish chorizo. I decided to turn it into a frittata and use 1/2 pound … Continue reading Venison Chorizo Frittata

Quick Pork and Pepper Ragout

November 6, 2016 Barbara

Quick, because I’m using pork tenderloins instead of a cut that benefits from long cooking, like a pork shoulder. In fact, after browning the tenderloin cubes, You only add them to the sauce at the last minute before serving. One … Continue reading Quick Pork and Pepper Ragout

Cooking Up the Summer Harvest—Salsa

August 28, 2016October 21, 2017 Barbara

No, I haven’t been on vacation, I’ve been cooking up all the tomatoes and peppers from the garden, and while I’m not done, I will probably just be doing more of the same to what’s left. The green beans are … Continue reading Cooking Up the Summer Harvest—Salsa

Garden Green Bean Casserole

August 13, 2016 Barbara

I know, it’s the middle of summer and not a holiday, where you usually expect to see a green bean casserole, but the garden keeps giving and there are only so many things to do with green beans. We don’t … Continue reading Garden Green Bean Casserole

Smoking Some Garden Jalapeños

August 5, 2016October 16, 2016 Barbara

For some reason, my husband expanded the garden to include jalapeño peppers this year, so I’ve been thinking of different ways to use them. Sometimes the raw ones are just a little too zippy for my old stomach, but I … Continue reading Smoking Some Garden Jalapeños

Orange Jalapeño Salsa and Marinade

July 27, 2016 Barbara

We’re beginning to get a lot of jalapeños in the garden, so I have to come up with ways to use them, and I don’t really want to do the fried cheese-stuffed poppers. Using them in their fresh state is … Continue reading Orange Jalapeño Salsa and Marinade

Quick Sauteed Broccoli

July 5, 2016 Barbara

This has become one of my go-to side dishes when I am grilling in the summer. I guess I could make it, too, on the grill in a cast iron skillet, but I make it in the kitchen while the … Continue reading Quick Sauteed Broccoli

Baked Rice with Roasted Pepper Sauce

June 6, 2016 Barbara

This sauce is a nice change from tomato sauce—actually, we hardly ever eat tomato sauce, but we’re not normal. The roasted pepper sauce is mild and sweet, but if your peppers are red, you might just fool your family into … Continue reading Baked Rice with Roasted Pepper Sauce

Dishing Out the Holiday Food

May 29, 2016February 11, 2020 Barbara

First, I have a hard time calling Memorial Day a holiday, having had a parent die in a war, but while it’s not all fireworks and getting drunk around here, I do make food like I would make for any … Continue reading Dishing Out the Holiday Food

May 23, 2016 Barbara

If you can believe it, I was out of bacon fat! So I had to cook up some bacon and decided to throw it into this dish—that was not a hard decision. I thought about making the cauliflower with coconut … Continue reading Bacony Cauliflower Rice
