Sometimes the best laid schemes o mice and women gang aft a-gley, as this surely aint yo Mama’s green bean casserole. It also wasn’t what was originally planned. Nevertheless, sometimes mistakes produce the best dishes. This is one of those dishes and I assure you we will cook this as part of our annual Thanksgiving meal from now on. It really is that good. Continue reading Not Yo Mama’s Green Bean Casserole
This is a really beautiful dish I have been wanting to post for a while. Continue reading Israeli Couscous with Sugar Snap Peas & Asparagus
I realize that for purposes of aesthetics you should stack items like cookies and fritters. The problem is this is a food blog. I just happen to like my camera and playing with it. Food, on the other hand, I take seriously. No one serves zucchini fritters in a stack and you surely don’t eat them that way. Continue reading Zucchini Fritters
Mm good! This was the side dish we had for dinner last night. What a delectable treat. Continue reading Garden Fresh Swiss Chard with Garlic, Lemon & Red Pepper
This is a fabulous side dish and went very well with the Steak Richard if I do say so myself. It is a wonderful way to fix spinach, is unique and packs a lot of flavor into a side dish. If you don’t try this dish then shame on you. Continue reading Moroccan Spinach with Preserved Lemons, Garlic and Paprika Topped with Goat Cheese
I was talking to Dena (one of our legal assistants) yesterday about REMCooks.com and going through some of the photos and recipes (she didn’t know I cooked, much less had a food blog :o). She looked at a few of the entrees but stopped when she saw one of the veggie recipes. “I really need some vegetable recipes” she commented as she was bookmarking the blog. I have found over the course of years that many people feel the same way. People always have a favorite main course or dessert but they are stymied when it comes to veggies. So I posted this veggie side dish. This vegetable side dish is is one of our favorites. We hope you give it a try. Continue reading Garlicky Roasted Baby Red Potatoes
Baby Lady & I love veggies. If it weren’t for the children, we would eat primarily a vegetarian (not vegan) diet. This dish is a show stopper if you like asparagus. If you don’t, well this dish aint your cup of tea but your guests will love it. You will like this dish because it is exceptionally versatile. It can be served for breakfast, as an appetizer or as a side dish with dinner. It is wonderfully flavorful and definitely worth a try. Continue reading Asparagus Gruyère Tart
