Corn Bisque

Kaitlin — Mon, 26 Aug 2024 10:00:11 +0000

One of my favorite local restaurants is The House of William and Merry. The creativity and pure deliciousness coming out of that restaurant is impressive! A recent dinner there inspired me to use some of my CSA corn this week to make this Corn Bisque! This silky corn bisque is delicious on its own, but... Read More »

Vegetarian Shepherds Pie

Kaitlin — Thu, 28 Mar 2024 10:00:49 +0000

Note: I was sent a review copy of A Return to Ireland by Judith McLoughlin in order to make this Vegetarian Shepherds Pie. Opinions are mine alone. You may have noticed I have quite a few Irish (and Irish-American) recipes on this blog. I truly love traditional Irish cooking; it is pure comfort food to... Read More »

Leek and Potato Soup

Kaitlin — Mon, 20 Jun 2022 10:00:08 +0000

I know it is quite late in the season for a soup recipe, but I made this Leek and Potato Soup recently and just had to share it. This is a fairly traditional Irish Leek and Potato Soup, but the simplicity means you can really make it your own with some tweaks if you wanted.... Read More »

Pressure Cooker Chicken Adobo

Kaitlin — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 10:00:53 +0000

I can’t tell you how many times my InstantPot has saved me for dinner. All too often, I’ll look up from my computer at 7pm and realize I haven’t even thought about what we are going to eat! This recipe for Pressure Cooker Chicken Adobo is one of those time-saver meals – it takes about... Read More »

Sheet Pan Paella

Kaitlin — Tue, 16 Jan 2018 11:00:02 +0000

Over the last few years, my husband and I have moved too many times. Since 2014, we have lived in five different apartments/houses. Somehow in one of those many moves, I lost (or threw out) my paella pan. Sigh. Paella is a favorite of mine. I love the combination of crispy rice, seafood, and spice.... Read More »

Freezable Ratatouille

Kaitlin — Wed, 13 Sep 2017 11:00:21 +0000

This Freezable Ratatouille is another recipe my friend and I made last weekend during our cooking marathon. This time of year is perfect for making a huge batch of ratatouille and freezing it! Ratatouille is a produce-heavy dish, using eggplants, zucchini, onions, and peppers. My friend doesn’t really love eggplant, so I used fairy tale... Read More »

Arepas Pabellón

Kaitlin — Mon, 20 Mar 2017 12:00:40 +0000

This recipe for Arepas Pabellón is inspired by a visit to an absolutely delicious Venezuelan restaurant. Last week, I checked out one of Philly’s newest restaurants: Puyero Venezuelan Flavor. Located just off of South Street on S 4th, the restaurant serves Venezuelan street food including arepas, patacones and tequenos, plus yummy desserts like churros. The... Read More »

Slow Cooker Boston Baked Beans

Kaitlin — Thu, 10 Nov 2016 14:15:14 +0000

My slow cooker gets such a workout this time of year. But I’m not willing to fully give up “summer” foods just yet. I had a craving for baked beans recently, so I decided to make a batch in my slow cooker and serve it with a cheeseburger and cornbread. Yum. This recipe is a... Read More »

Jambalaya

Kaitlin — Mon, 22 Aug 2016 13:00:51 +0000

This weekend, I cooked my little heart out. I realized Labor Day is only a couple of weeks away, so it’s time to stock my freezer with ready-made meals for busy nights in the fall, like this freezable Jambalaya! I made tomato sauce, slow cooker chicken cacciatore, bacon-topped meatloaf, and this recipe for Jambalaya. (It was... Read More »
