Pineapple Fried Rice
Every Tuesday this fall, the Whole Foods in Town Square (where the contestants did all of their shopping on Top Chef Las Vegas) has been hosting cooking classes taught by different chefs from the Wynn and Encore resorts. I have been to quite a few of them, but perhaps my favourite cooking class was taught [...]
Veggie Shepherd’s Pie with Sweet Potato Mash
I don’t know about you, but my jeans were feeling a wee bit snug after Thanksgiving. Don’t most Americans gain something like 5 pounds between Thanksgiving and Christmas? I don’t know the exact researched amount, but I just know that I don’t want to frighten children in my bathing suit when we go to Mexico [...]
Thanksgiving Dinner: Maple Pear Upside-Down Cake
Any good Thanksgiving meal needs to end in dessert, even if you don’t feel like there is any room left in your stomach! This Maple Pear Upside-Down Cake is the perfect way to end your holiday: It is it light and outrageously moist, yet so full of flavour that it will satiate even the most [...]
Thanksgiving Dinner: Crunchy New Potatoes
I originally posted this incredible recipe for Crunchy New Potatoes back in April when I had a dinner party for some of my girlfriends in Austin. The potatoes were so good and easy to make that I just had to give them their own post in time for the holidays. Every time that I’ve made [...]
Thanksgiving Dinner: Scalloped Potatoes and Fennel
You can never have enough potatoes at Thanksgiving dinner. There’s the classic mashed, and all the variations upon them, roasted, gratin, scalloped — even french fries would be good. Therefore we’re bringing you three different potato recipes today, so if you’re either picky, or just a glutton for potatoes, you should be covered. First up, [...]
Turlu Turlu
We both really like middle eastern food, and one of our favorite cookbooks is from the restaurant Moro in London, which melds together Middle Eastern, Spanish and Moroccan food wonderfully. As we’ve been trying to eat more vegetables lately, I searched through it for some good, moreish veggie recipes, and found one for Turlu Turlu, [...]
Moroccan Spiced Chickpea and Lentil Soup
One of the most interesting things that has happened while I’ve been working on Recession Recipes is connecting with old friends and new friends who are as obsessed with food as I am. I love getting emails from them telling me what they are currently enjoying to eat or getting family recipes. A very old [...]
Roasted Acorn Squash with Chile Vinaigrette
Despite this September being the hottest September ever on record in Vegas, fall has finally arrived today with a sudden 20 degree drop from yesterday’s temperature. I’m giddy with excitement and am already planning on what I’m going to braise to take advantage of the cooler temperatures. This Roasted Acorn Squash with Chile Vinaigrette makes [...]
Lemon Ice Cream Sandwiches with Blueberry Swirl
I saw these Lemon Ice Cream Sandwiches with Blueberry Swirl on the front cover of the August issue of Gourmet magazine and fell in love with them instantly. I didn’t buy the magazine when I first saw it, but then couldn’t get them out of my head. I remember making Carlo search every book store [...]
Grilled Peaches with Manchego and Balsamic Glaze
Keeping in line with last’s week post about trying to savor the last of the summer fruit and veg, here is a savory dessert using up the last of the summer’s peaches. Grilled peaches and Manchego cheese may sound like an odd combination, but the saltiness of the Spanish sheep’s milk cheese really plays off [...]
