If there ever was a 1-2-3 or Ich Mich Pich recipe as my Mother in Law would say, Pulled Beef is it. Place your beef in a roasting pan with sliced onions, pour a bottle of barbecue sauce over it, cover and bake for 4 hours. I served the Pulled […]

Leek Quiche
I love Leek Quiche. Leeks have a milder and more mellow flavor than onions. When they’re sautéed, the leeks just seem to melt into the custard filling. Leeks also mix beautifully with other vegetables. I often reduce the amount of leeks by a cup or two and substitute them with […]
Halibut Salad
I grew up eating Halibut Salad. It was on our Thursday rotation of fish meals. Halibut is a firm white fleshed fish that has a very mild flavor. It’s actually whiter than other white fleshed fish like snapper or flounder. I think that’s what makes it so pretty as a […]
Goujons de Sole
Goujons de Sole are small pieces of Sole that are dipped in fritter batter and fried in hot oil. I had always considered them to be a French creation; until I learned differently. Fried fish was originally brought to England by Portuguese Sephardic Jews in the 16th century. As Marranos, […]
Tuna Noodle Casserole
Tuna Noodle Casserole was very popular when I was a newlywed- 53 years ago. Over the years, I stopped making it. That being said, there is nothing like a creamy Tuna Noodle Casserole to warm your tummy and comfort you on a snowy Winter’s night. Years ago, I used canned […]
Veal Chops with Cherry Tomatoes and Balsamic Glaze
De La Rosa 613 sent me a gift of their Avocado Oil and Balsamic Glaze. My mission was to come up with a recipe using them. FYI- Avocado Oil is very healthy and has a very high smoke point; which makes it very easy to fry with. The Balsamic Glaze […]
Herbed Roast Turkey with Maple Glaze
I make Herbed Roast Turkey with Maple Glaze with herbs under and over the turkey skin. They impart the most delicious flavor and amazing aroma. Add maple syrup to the turkey’s natural fat for basting for a whole other layer of sweet deliciousness. The skin on Herbed Roast Turkey with […]
Fish Tacos
Fish Tacos are a fun dinner whether you opt for a soft tortilla or a hard taco shell. I’ve served these Fish Tacos for lunch and dinner. Adults and children alike enjoy scooping up the grilled fish and choosing their favorite add ons of guacamole, cole slaw with lime juice […]
Vegetables Bourguignon
Vegetables Bourguignon (a riff on Boeuf Bourguignon), is a flavorful vegan entrée all year round and perfect for Passover as well. My video shows me serving the Vegetables Bourguignon over a slice of Roasted Cauliflower. I also love to serve it over a mound of mashed potatoes ! Whichever way […]
Beef Tagine
The combination of spices in this Beef Tagine make you feel like you’re in Morocco. The hot, sweet and spicy flavors combined with the tender beef, vegetables , dried apricots and orange peel make each bite a perfect one. Make this Beef Tagine a day in advance so that the […]
