Grilled Asparagus with Fresh Dried Chili Oil

Now that summer is here, I find ourselves eating lighter food, which normally means a ton of salads. However, sometimes I get a bit bored of eating lettuce regardless of what we may put on top of it. When you want something light but are sick of salads, this Grilled Asparagus with Fresh Dried Chili [...]

Chilaquiles al Guajillo

Chilaquiles is one of my favourite things to eat for breakfast. Seriously, what could be a better combination than tortilla chips, spicy sauce, and eggs? I could perhaps eat these everyday and be perfectly content (even though I would probably be the size of a house!). This Chilaquiles al Guajillo recipe is from Rick Bayless, [...]

Sort of Tuna Nicoise

A few years ago, Carlo and I did the South Beach Diet when that was all the rage. Most of the recipes included in their cookbook were fairly nasty, which anyone who has been pranked at the dinner table by their Surprise “Mashed Potatoes” recipe definitely knows! However, one of our favourite recipes in the [...]

Smoked Salmon and Leek Scramble with Meyer Lemon Sour Cream

We are dogsitting in Boulder City for a few days, and I miss our kitchen and having my days revolve around cooking and eating. I’m a bit hung over from staying up far too late last night watching Planet Earth and drinking wine with Carlo, so looking at these pictures of the Smoked Salmon and [...]

Pulled Baby-Back Ribs Eggs Benedict

We are always on the look out for great breakfast recipes that we can make on the weekends because both of us could perhaps eat breakfast food for every meal. A couple of months ago, Esquire Magazine came out with an article on the best breakfast joints in America. In addition to the great breakfast [...]

Back to Basics: Frittata

I never used to eat breakfast much, but I’ve been on roughly a four-year fascination kick with eggs. Over the past several months, I’ve made several frittatas on Sunday nights so I’ve got breakfast made for a few days during the week. There’s not a lot of rhyme or reason to the recipes, I tend [...]

Spicy Indian-Style Scrambled Eggs

To make these Spicy Indian-Style Scrambled Eggs, you won’t have to wait until the weekend when you have lots of free time because they only take a few minutes to prepare if you have all the ingredients on hand. The eggs are so simple to make, but have a really bold and complex flavour from [...]

Fried Egg with Sage, Chilli and Garlicky Yoghurt

I like breakfast foods, so every weekend we try to make something yummy at least one morning. I first tried this recipe for Fried Egg with Sage, Chilli, and Garlicky Yoghurt a few months ago, and it became an instant favorite. The title doesn’t quite do it justice, I don’t think, and might sound a [...]

Back to Basics: Crepes

One of the very first recipes that I learned how to make 25 or so years ago–aside from scrambled eggs–was crepes, or English pancakes as they were known in my house. I think my mum taught me how to make them so I would stop asking her to make them all time since it seemed [...]

Huevos Rancheros

If I had to plan my perfect Saturday morning, it would include a long run around Town Lake in Austin followed by a Tex-Mex breakfast at Magnolia Cafe (because you know that calories don’t really count after running 10 miles ). Unfortunately, we now live in Las Vegas, but I can still capture that feeling [...]
