Oh and I also love to make it with cucumbers, red peppers, red onion, feta, mint, a little tzatziki (sp?) sauce, and again, chicken. Another one bowl meal that satisfies.

I replace the apples with chunks of rotisserie chicken (store bought) in this recipe from Giada de Laurentis:

I'm really jealous of that because here in Virginia, you cannot use a grill of any kind within 20 feet of your apartment. You can store it, but you can't fire it up.

I love sugar snap peas ice cold out of the fridge or just barely steamed. For some reason I LOVE pairing up cold snap peas with cold strips of raw red pepper - probably because those are also a bit...

Oops. I meant to add that I haven't peeled the garlic before, just threw the whole bulb in, but now I'm going to try doing it peeled on the next trip at the end of June!

I live in an apartment so I can't grill, but it's not that different from campfire grilling. The boyfriend loves to camp (and loves to drag me with him) so I insist on having at least one really go...

I'm with mntwmyn - I buy a rotisserie chicken from the store and throw a few ounces on my salad. Sometimes I'll just cutup whatever leftover meat I have from the night before and throw a portion of...

This is the kind of post that makes me want to become more traditional about the holiday. I grew up with mixed faith parents and it made it difficult. Plus, when money is tight and times are rough,...

Without a doubt, the best thing about Passover is my grandma's (now moms) Matzoball soup. I have yet to learn the family recipe and will not learn it until I am a married woman, but it's up there w...

I think I'd scream if I had to have a kitchen that small, but if it looked like this, I wouldn't lose my mind entirely. That is an incredible change and looks amazing, especially when compared to t...

1.) I have less than a foot of open/available counter space so baking and making pasta from scratch moves to the dinning room table. Same with cooling baked goods. 2.) I have precious little st...

I have a balcony garden going that I've worked hard on and have been learning from trial and error. I started from seeds. The other day I discovered that I have baby roma tomatoes growing and the e...

It looks like Tinda

Word to the wise, roasting them increases the spicy factor. Not that I mind the heat, but I wasn't prepared for that and really over did it on a jalapeno corn chowder recipe a friend gave me. Basic...

Old Bay now makes a crab boil packet you just toss in the water. I find Zatarains in general to be too salty and tastes too processed so I'm afraid of their seasoning. Then again, I'm a Maryland gi...

I'm not saying it's a dead ringer, but Ikea makes a decent look-alike that is 69 cents a glass. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/...

OKay I looked at the rest of the pictures and I retract the stove top comment. I also see how it's works and yeah, let's jsut ignore the majority of my last comment, kay? thanks!

Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of creating a small and useful space if you have to store the appliances elsewhere? Her hydrolic lifts and the fridge being in another room makes this nothing ...

I see I'm not the only one who saw the Good Eats episode where Alton Brown proved this one. My mom always rinsed her mushrooms for the very simple reason that they grow in dung and dirt and they ar...

I'm trying to see how it's not green to recycle something disposable into something totally usable that is also appealing to the eye. Is there something I'm missing? Even though I don...
