I went into our back yard today and I have MORELS growing in my back yard! I almost peed my pants! Now what to do with them?

Has anyone here tried making socca? I made it for the first time last night and I love it! It’s a sort of crepe/flat bread from Nice, France. You just take about a cup of chick pea flour, 1 Tbls of olive oil and fresh chopped herbs of your choice. Mix that together with enough water to make a...

So did anyone make a nice breakfast this morning? I made green onion potato cakes, roasted ham slices, scrambled eggs with roasted red peppers and a side of fruit. Hooray it's Saturday!

It’s a new month so let’s have a new thread. We can leave February far behind and jump into spring! For dinner tonight I’m making Chicken leg quarters braised in a tomatillo sauce with Brown rice and salad.

So is anyone doing up a St Patty's Day dinner? I'm doing Irish pub salad braised pork shoulder with apples, champs, sauteed cabbage, gluten free Irish soda bread and probably far breton for dessert

Sorry it took me so long to get this. My husband has been sick and I wasn't able to look through all my recipes. This is a recipe that I copied out of a South African cook book. I think the fried potatoes are a South African addition but it makes it really tasty. Chicken Vindaloo Recipe...

So what is everyone cooking up for Mardi Gras? I love Cajun food. I make blackened fish all the time with greens and corn bread. I also like to make Jambalaya, BBQ shrimp and even duck gumbo. I haven’t decided yet what I will be making this year. What are your favorites?

I posted on the menus thread that I would be making this for dinner tonight and I did. I'm so sad that we ate it all! I wanted to post the recipe with the changes I made to make it gluten free. I really think the buckwheat flour adds a wonderful flavor but you could just use all purpose. This...

Unfortunatly I don't post that many recipes to the site. Since I don't feel right about offering a recipe I haven't tried and my recipes need to be gluten free so that leaves me out a lot of the time but I made this salad the other day and it was so delicious! I thought anyone looking for a...

I LOVE spices. I put herbs and spices into everything. So since we are in the Spice Place cooking forum I thought maybe this is the place to make a comment about the packaging of a lot of spices. Why do they put those shaker caps on all bottles of spices? The first thing I do when I get a bottle...

My tuna salad sandwich recipe just won second place on the Epicurious tuna sandwich contest so I thought I would share it with you. And can you believe it everything is from a jar. Sacriledge! :) Julie’s Tuna Salad One recipe or jar of tapenade 1 can of good quality tuna 1jar of marinated...

Here is a recipe I made recently. It was so good with the weather starting to get chilly. chicken normande with mashed apples and potatoes 3 cups canned low-salt chicken broth 1 cup apple cider or apple juice 8 ounces parsnips, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 1 3/4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes...

I find that there is usually a lot less time spent on truly innovative vegetable dishes. For me I think making a totally unique vegetable dish is really a challenge. Some of my favorites are roasted cauliflower with cocoa powder, carrot osso buco, green peas with shiitake mushrooms and dill and...

The Crust is from Gluten Free Girl. The rest I adapted from other recipes. If you don't want it to be gluten free just substitute all purpose flour in the filling and the streusel. You can use your favorite pie crust recipe for the crust. Gluten Free Girl’s Pie Crust 1 cup white rice flour...

Here is a fun one that everyone always enjoys. What are you making for dinner? My Mother is coming today. She also has a gluten allergy but doesn't cook for herself so there are a lot of good things that she is missing out on. Tonight I'm making gluten free lasagna, salad with rosemary...
