Today is National Eggs Benedict Day. Eggs Benedict is my all time favorite breakfast! There,s nothing that I don’t like about it. The traditional version starts with a crunchy sour base of English muffins topped with BACON, followed a poached egg and then smothered in a silky buttery lemony cream sauce. Heaven on plate that’s […]
When Easter is hopping around the corner the first food that comes to mind for me is always eggs. More than any other food, eggs represent Easter. Colorfully dyed eggs, plastic filled eggs, cheap shiny grass as a nest for them. Eggs are a birth, a beginning so is Easter and so is Spring.
I wear leather, ride Harleys and hang out in biker bars; I am a self professed rebel and have even been called a “badass” on more than one occasion. But I’m way more complicated than that; I watch Dr. Who and Star Trek, I loved chemistry and science in college and I ‘m definitely a […]
If you’ve been following along you’ll remember that a couple of weeks ago, we bought ten lobster tails (since they were on sale at a price we just couldn’t resist). I made Lobster Verrines as our starter and Lobster Risotto as our side (which ended up being the star of the entire meal) and for […]
“It’s the most wonderful time of the year month”. It’s no secret, the Secret Recipe Club, reveal is one of my favorite blogging things. Amanda from Amanda’s Cookin is the brain behind all this. There are four groups, I am in group C which is hosted by the warm and friendly Angie of Big Bear’s […]
I’m not ready to let summer go yet. Fortunately the weather has been cooperating. Here in Montana we are finding ourselves with an unusually late summer. After record snows this past winter, it is a welcome feeling. Just a few days ago we had temps in the 90’s. Even though they have dropped down to […]
Lemon is one of my favorite flavors, I am more of a lemon lover than a chocolate lover (weird, I know). Mary at One Perfect Bite has been posting lemon recipes for the last couple of weeks, driving me absolutely crazy. Especially the lemony sweets. Meyer lemons have magically shown up here in Great Falls, […]
My final post in a 3 part series. Soupa Avegolemono is traditionally made with eggs, chicken broth, rice or a small pasta like orzo with out the addition of chicken. Although not traditional in the purist sense, many Greek restaurants serve Soupa Avgolemono with chicken in it. In my version, I’ve omitted the eggs because […]
Part 2 of my 3 part post: I tweeted and facebooked asking for suggestions to go with my Crispy Roasted Lemon Chicken, I got some great suggestions. My mom suggested rice pilaf, the suggestion reminded me that I have not made rice pilaf an eons, so I was excited to make it again. I also […]
The Baby boy loves chicken skin, really crispy chicken skin. He also loves lemon. I wanted a special meal for him once he came from the hospital. Not that the hospital food was all that bad, as a matter of fact the only bad food he had was the crispy chicken. Which wasn’t crispy and […]
