A few years ago, someone suggested I teach a class with a breakfast menu. At first I didn't think it was such a good idea because breakfast seems kind of easy, at least too easy to be taught in a cooking class. In our house the rotations is oatmeal or muesli, scrambled eggs, smoothies, yogurt and ...

gazpacho with avocado recipe
The kids are going back to school tomorrow, which means that my favorite season is UNofficially over. No more lazy days and waking up late or reading for pleasure instead of for a test. Back to making lunches at 6:30 am and soccer carpools. Not so fast! The good news is that summer isn't ...
eggplant caprese recipe
Ok, my kitchen is more or less back together except for a few cabinets, and I couldn't be happier. Never mind that every other room in the house has its contents spilled out into random hallways or in the living room which we never use. It doesn't even bother me that we are all still sharing one ...
pasta with 5-minute cherry tomato sauce recipe
Mr. Picky and I had the most glorious week on Long Island visiting my parents. My sisters and their kids came to be with us too, so it was quite a full house. It kind of felt like summer camp with lots of old fashioned fun outdoors from morning til dusk except for the brief break to watch a few ...
Southwestern Quinoa Salad Recipe
Have you ever read a cookbook or food blog where an unbelievable, creative recipe was put together with "odds and ends" from the pantry or produce bin? I am always in awe of people who can do that.

Chicken and Avocado Soup
Even though I'm a big football fan and I love a good game (especially when my team wins), when it's over, it's over. Whether the outcome of the game is favorable or unfavorable, life goes on and so do I. So football is finished until next year, but eating happens multiple times a day everyday. ...
building a better breakfast
You probably know that people who eat breakfast generally weigh less and have a lower Body Mass Index than people who don't eat breakfast. Maybe you've learned from personal experience that when you skip breakfast, you have low blood sugar later in the morning and can be more easily tempted by junk ...
spinach and feta strata
You know I'm a fan of the do-ahead breakfast for busy (and early) weekday mornings. But holidays and weekend brunches are also the perfect time to prepare a fabulous breakfast the night before. On Christmas morning, the kids love to come down in their pj's and see what Santa left for them and I ...
Broccoli Crunch Salad Recipe
Do you ever get in a rut with a particular food? I am ever so grateful that everyone in my house likes broccoli, which is one of the most nutritious foods out there, but I get a little bored with broccoli with garlic and oil, broccoli with lemon and parmesan cheese or sesame-ginger broccoli. I ...
chocolate coconut macaroons recipe
If I am going to eat dessert, it better be good. It better be worth falling off the wagon for. Usually Passover desserts do nothing to tempt me from my sugar abstinence and that's not necessarily a bad thing. But I cannot in good conscience be the bringer of a sticky, heavy honey nut cake or one ...
