Janice Taylor — Fri, 12 Sep 2014 11:27:31 +0000

While perusing and cruising the vast world of food and recipes, I stumbled upon one recipe that warned, “One must hard boil their eggs correctly.” Correctly? You mean you don’t just boil them?

Eat This – Totally Satisfying! Caramelized Onion Tart

Janice Taylor — Sat, 06 Sep 2014 12:59:21 +0000

A friend unexpectedly rolled into town just in time to lunch with us. It was kind of funny, because lunch was a “happening,” which is seldom the case. Generally speaking, it’s every man-for-himself, catch-as-catch-can, you-are-on-your-own-buddy. For whatever reason, the mood had hit earlier in the day, and I had a 5 star lunch already to [...]

Dysfunctional Chef: Pickled, the Easy Way?

Janice Taylor — Sat, 02 Aug 2014 13:21:34 +0000

Do you love pickled foods? I do! Pickled beets, pickled beans, pickled cucumbers a.k.a. pickles, and pickled eggs! Love the taste and the color! That pickled red is amazing, is it not? In fact, I’m wondering why there’s no crayon or paint color named after it. You can pickle from scratch or you could, as [...]

Eat This: Lose Weight – Zucchini Noodles and Garbanzo Bean Salad

I’ve gone mad with power, “spiralizing” my way through the kitchen. Cucumber noodles, zucchini noodles, beet noodles, alike! I don’t generally endorse products, but I’m having so much fun with the Spiralizer, the best gadget/kitchen aide that I’ve purchased in eons, that I just had to share the excitement and the vegetable recipes. Because, Our [...]
