Gotta love some Home Made Arabic Food…kinda
My friend Katie and I used to cook a lot when we lived together (most of my early posts are from that, actually.) I was pretty psyched when she and Jean moved up in this area, that way I could have someone else to hangout with. Something favorite of mine that she used to make [...]
Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( None so far )Pulled Pork!
I’ve been having a craving for pulled pork. Possibly because I’ve seen the commericals for the Subway Pulled pork about a hundred times at work. The problem with their pulled pork sandwhich is that it’s about $10. I knew I could make something way better and way cheaper, and I was right. I spent $47 [...]

Sorry about the delay in the post, the first recipe is to blame for that. It was probably the most epic holiday cooking I’d ever done. There is still left over food in the fridge, we’re going to be eating pretty well for a week! We ended up making 2 double batches of the sangria. [...]

So, today is my last day off before I start rehearsals, and I’ve been aching to make my pretzals again (ok, Alton Brown’s pretzals) and some beer mustard to go with it. And, I had bought an extra pint of strawberries so I decided to make something out of them. The pretzals are of course [...]

I found the cracker recipe a while ago and the red velvet cheesecake recipe after making the cookie dough cheesecake. It’s another baked [...]

As most of you know, I’m a big fan of chips and dip, whether it be guacmole, salsa, spinach dip…the list goes on. But, there is a big difference from something that I can make myself compared to something I can buy from a store. Salsa is one thing, its a very easy dip to [...]

Ever since I had eaten at Broken Rocks and had their chicken marsala, I’ve wanted to make the marsala again. I had some time off on Tuesday and decided to make it for Maureen and Neil. While at the store I had the brilliant idea to make some bruschetta because I had never made it [...]

Today I made food in the largest porportion I’ve ever made before. I invited the whole company, and I think I had about 15 people show up (?), I’m honestly not to sure. The menu was as follows: pizza (I’ve posted the recipe on here before) spinach artichoke dip (be posting that below), Girideli chocolate [...]
