Lemon basil chicken and vegetables is easy to make, simple and utilizes rustic flavors with spring and summer vegetables that can be harvested right from the garden. I’ve adapted this recipe in The Essential WW Freestyle Cookbook from a similar kebab recipe, but I generally don’t like to mess with kebabs and not to mention […]
Okay, so Chef Michael Smith is a well-known, celebrity chef pretty much across the globe. I’m not sure how famous he is here in the states, but just because I had never heard of him before doesn’t really mean too much. For all I know, he may be all over Food Network or Cooking Channel […]
It’s been some time since I’ve had the time and energy along with the urge to do some creative, experimental cooking. I wonder if foodies that don’t cook know what kind of planning it takes to find or write a recipe and then execute it, let alone take pictures and then write about it. It […]
This soup was perfect timing for this week as Jen (my wife) and I have been fighting off some semblance of colds and sinus crap. There’s nothing better than a nice hot bowl of soup to warm the soul and relieve those nasty body aches. This recipes comes from Jen’s Fresh and Fabulous, who as […]
Tonight’s guest recipe comes from Ann at Cooking Healthy for Me. Normally, I try to feature a recipe from a fellow foodie blogger from at least a couple of months ago so it doesn’t seem like I’m trying to steal another blogger’s thunder.In this case it’s only been a week since Ann made her blog […]
Tonight’s dinner was a bold adventure. I found this recipe on a really old newspaper clipping in my wife’s bag of old family recipes. This one comes from a person in Cohasset, a town just outside of Boston, so probably a Boston newspaper where my mother-in-law is from. Why a bold adventure? Well, it’s not […]
General Tso’s Chicken is my all-time favorite Chinese dish. I love its sweet and spicy combination as well as the tender chicken coated in crispy exterior. Serve it over rice, of course traditionally, but it also adds an extra texture and nutty flavor (especially if using brown rice) while spreading the sauce out a bit. […]
I’m a big fan of risotto. Not just eating it, but making it. This is my 3rd or 4th attempt at risotto, and my first attempt at this particular recipe. I think my second attempt it was a little undercooked, but all other times it has turned out quite well. I always see on television […]
I’m excited to announce that today’s Guest Recipe of Chicken Parmesan Burgers comes from Tracey’s Culinary Adventures. I found Tracey quite accidentally, actually, a couple of weeks ago when I resolved to organize my Foodbuzz profile and proceeded to go through all 4,000 messages in my inbox dating back to April of this year. While […]
One of the ugliest yet most delicious meals I’ve ever made. The floured chicken seasoned with oregano and paprika, which gives it a nice golden color, is pan seared for a light crispy breading. The chicken is then topped with a saute combo of mushrooms, scallions, and garlic that are then boiled with chicken broth […]
