In hindsight, I should have thrown in the sliced mushrooms that came that week. (Please note the original recipe . . . → Read More: Niçoise Style Chopped Salad

The October Food ‘n Flix feature is Only You with a VERY young Marissa Tomei and Robert Downey, Jr. Seriously, they look like they’re twelve. 🙂 As part of the film is set in Rome, I found an “authentic” pasta to prepare. . . . → Read More: Roman Pasta and Only You

I do not use my book of Plenty often enough. The recipes I have made from its pages are outstanding like Two-Potato Vindaloo and Freekeh Pilaf. I’ve also made his Multi-Vegetable Paella (80) which is fantastic. I just didn’t post it. 🙁

I pulled it back out recently and earmarked some recipes . . . → Read More: Roasted Vegetable Frittata

Instant Pot Mojo Pork Rice Bowls
