Cherry Ricotta Bruschetta

Kaitlin — Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:00:28 +0000

I continue to struggle with looking at a bunch of ingredients and imagining a meal. In general, I follow recipes and make a few changes to account for ingredients available or to suit my tastes. But yesterday, a friend and I came across fresh ricotta and the most beautiful fresh cherries. The cherries were slightly... Read More »

Scallops Gratineed with Wine Garlic and Herbs

Kaitlin — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 11:00:00 +0000

I am on a butter kick. Darn you, Julia Child, and your deliciously simple but butter-filled recipes. There are few things that change the taste of a meal as easily as really good butter. I’m talking full-fat, salted, hand-churned butter. Keep in mind, meals like this should not be a weekly staple. But my goodness... Read More »

Tomato Basil Soup

Kaitlin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 00:30:00 +0000

Grilled Cheese and tomato soup is the perfect combination of comfort foods. Rainy, snowy, or just plain crummy days are instantly better after a warm bowl with cheesy bread for dipping. Cooking Light had a quick recipe for Tomato Basil soup in their March issue that sounded so easy I had to try it. (It... Read More »

Broiled Thai Curry Salmon & Baby Bok Choy

Kaitlin — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 12:42:00 +0000

As much as I try to like bok choy, I just don’t really like the flavor. However, I received two baby bok choy in my CSA so here’s my attempt to hide the cabbage-y taste using a Bon Appetit recipe as a base that includes a Thai Red Curry sauce. Ingredients: (this only makes 1... Read More »

Lobster Corn Creme Brulee

Kaitlin — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:00:00 +0000

One of my favorite shows on the Food Network is 5 Ingredient Fix. I love that all the recipes include 5 ingredients or fewer (plus salt and pepper, they are considered “freebies”) and I find the tips that host Claire Robinson shares to be so so useful. I was watching an episode of 5 Ingredient... Read More »

Broiled Salmon with Roasted Tomato Sauce

Kaitlin — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 00:08:00 +0000

How I love August. Not for the heat or the never ending rain (not-so-fun fact: August is already the wettest August ever recorded in Philadelphia, what joy) but because it is tomato season! Fresh tomatoes are one of my favorite ingredients and I wait all year to enjoy about 6 weeks of perfectly ripe tomatoes.... Read More »

Capellini with Clams and Saffron

Kaitlin — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 00:42:00 +0000

I am a huge Top Chef fan. So much that my parents bought me the Top Chef cookbook a few years back. However, when I moved, I stored it away and completely forgot about it. I recently found the cookbook again and came across Ilan’s dish: Fideos with Clams and Saffron. My CSA share this... Read More »

Fontina-Stuffed, Bacon-Wrapped Dates

Kaitlin — Thu, 09 Jun 2011 23:43:00 +0000

I honestly have no idea why some fresh dates caught my eye while I was shopping recently. Somehow, they ended up in my basket along with my usual ingredients: lemons, garlic, onions and peppers. I opened my fridge yesterday and realized my poor little dates were still sitting in there, so I decided today was... Read More »

Shish Kabobs with Rice

Kaitlin — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 00:08:00 +0000

This weekend I was given quite the culinary challenge: make a meal for ten people without breaking the bank. I would be feeding everyone at the beach, so my mind immediately went to Shish Kabobs with Rice (I want summer and barbecues to be here so badly!). This is a great option for vegetarians as...
