Double Lemon Linguine with Roasted Chickpeas

May 20, 2020 4 Comments

I always feel a little funny posting a recipe for pasta. Not the more elaborate pasta dishes, those are fine. I’m talking about the meals that are so clearly the pantry pasta du jour. Meals like this Double Lemon Linguine. The beauty of a pantry pasta lies in its unshakable formula: Oil, aromatics, pasta, whatever you have in the fridge and/or cupboard, pasta water, and cheese. It’s really as simple as that. So when I present a recipe like this Double Lemon Linguine with Roasted Chickpeas, I am merely presenting you with one of a million possible forms your pantry pasta could take.

Since the pubs closed about 8 million years ago, Bae and I have been trying our best to create at-home pub nights whenever possible. We try to have a variety of our favorite beers on hand and together we devise a pub-ish menu. One night it might be nachos, while another could be burgers. Fish and chips have made an appearance and so have homemade potato chips. But thus far, our favorite at-home pub creation has to be these Dill Pickle Chicken Fingers with Ranch Yogurt Dip. They hit the spot like no other and I have to say, they may be the best chicken fingers I’ve ever had.

The weather is not cooperating. I know, I live in Canada, I should be used to that by now. But it’s nearly the middle of May and we’re still talking about wind chill. If you live in a warmer climate, allow me to make this real for you. I wore a winter coat and took a walk in the snow yesterday. And contrary to popular belief, this is not normal for Toronto. We do not live in igloos and conduct business in ice castles. So yeah, I’m not impressed. But I’m also quick to remind myself that even when we have an uncooperative spring, it always gives way to summer. And it is with this happy thought in my head that I present to you this Blistered Cabbage Skillet Cornbread because BBQ season has got to get here eventually.

Vegetarian Breakfast Burritos with Potato Lentil Fritters

May 9, 2020 No Comments

I know these Vegetarian Breakfast Burritos in no way resemble high-tea-fare, and yet I am putting them forward as a potential Mother’s Day brunch idea. I know, I’m so controversial. I’ve always found the difference between “Mother’s Day Food” and “Father’s Day Food” to be out-and-out hilarious. Only mothers could possibly enjoy the likes of lemon curd, smoked salmon, and peeled asparagus spears. And fathers? Well, that meal had better involve beer, pretzels, and a rack of ribs. How else would you know it was for dad?
