Pork Souvlaki
Currently cooking from The Carefree Cook by Rick Rodgers. The weather up here in North Idaho has finally warmed up enough to get the grill out of storage, and to celebrate, we made these pork souvlaki skewers. You start out … Continue reading
Orzo with Parmesan and Peas
Currently cooking from The Carefree Cook by Rick Rodgers. I don’t have a very large repertoire of side dishes, and I haven’t cooked with orzo before, so I was excited to try this recipe. If you aren’t familiar with orzo, … Continue reading
Barbecued Meat Loaves
Currently cooking out of The Carefree Cook by Rick Rodgers. I have mixed feelings about this recipe. It was easy and fast, but I didn’t really like the taste of the meatloaves. The recipe calls for meatloaf mix, which is … Continue reading
Rhubarb, Orange and Apple Jam
From Mes Confitures by Christine Ferber. For the past couple of years, I’ve been hearing about French Pastry Chef Christine Ferber and her preserves made from local ingredients. They are supposed to be out-of-this-world good, with unique flavor combinations. Mes … Continue reading
Pork Chops in Creamy Mushroom Sauce
Currently Cooking out of The Carefree Cook by Rick Rodgers. The next cookbook under the microscope is The Carefree Cook by Rick Rodgers. The book is aimed at people who don’t have a lot of time to cook, but want … Continue reading

Currently cooking out of Pure Dessert by Alice Medrich. You might remember this cake from the chocolate spelt pound cake. Originally, I had wanted to do the kamut version, but couldn’t find any kamut flour. During a weekend trip to … Continue reading
My Chocolate Pudding
Currently cooking out of Pure Dessert by Alice Medrich. I grew up on burnt chocolate pudding that came out of a box. Back before there was instant chocolate pudding, there was the chocolate pudding that you actually had to cook … Continue reading
Raspberry-Chocolate Chunk Muffins
Currently cooking out of Pure Dessert by Alice Medrich. I hadn’t planned on making these muffins, but every time I flipped through Pure Dessert, I kept stopping on this recipe. Muffins just didn’t seem exotic enough to try. But they … Continue reading
Tropical Swirl Babka
Currently cooking out of Pure Dessert by Alice Medrich. This is actually two recipes in one. First, you make a batch of Desire’s Brioche dough. But instead of making traditional brioche loaves, you roll the dough out and spread a … Continue reading
