Romesco Lima Bean Dip with Charred Scallions

January 26, 2019 No Comments

Today’s recipe is a Romesco Lima Bean Dip. Yes, a dip. It’s true, dips are not your typical January fare. Most of us tend to keep entertaining to a minimum once Christmas is well in the rearview mirror. And, for some unknown reason, when we don’t party, we don’t dip. Well, I mean we might crack open a jar of salsa to stave off hangriness or dive into store bought french onion dip mid game. But in January gourmet dips are nowhere to be seen, probably because we’re all hiding in our least presentable pair of PJs. And if you’re hiding away from the public, why bother to put your best dip forward, right?

Today’s recipe for these Sweet Potato Bean Burritos with Avocado Rice is near and dear to my heart. They kept me alive through the later years of my university life. You know, that special time when you’re old enough to want to stop eating instant noodles, but you still have to exist on an instant noodle-sized budget? Yeah, it’s a time of creation out of desperation. A time of ingenuity due to necessity. It’s…it’s terrible, I would not do it again. But one good thing did come out of this rocky time and no, I’m not talking about my (super useful) art history degree. I’m talking about the recipe for these stellar Sweet Potato Bean Burritos.

Spinach Artichoke Strata with Asiago

December 23, 2018 No Comments

I’ve always taken Christmas morning breakfast very seriously. Some might say too seriously but those people are, frankly, not living their best life. Christmas morning breakfast is sacred. It’s the one morning meal all year that allows, nay, demands you throw caution to the wind and eat and drink whatever you damn well please. You can’t, in good conscience, waste an opportunity like that. That’s why I propose you serve this Spinach Artichoke Strata because it’s level of decadence is definitely over the top.

Wild Mushroom Cream Sauce & The Boreal Forest

December 10, 2018 4 Comments

Today’s Wild Mushroom Cream Sauce comes with a message. A little while back, the people at Green Peace reached out about a project they were undertaking with a Yukon chef by the name of Michele Genest. The project would take the form of a cookbook to raise awareness for the Boreal Forest. I chose to volunteer my talents to the initiative because preserving biodiversity in the natural world is something near and dear to my heart. Enjoying a wide variety of flavors and textures is a privilege that I believe is worth guarding. If you’d rather not read on, no sweat! But take this as a fair warning: there will be some mild tree hugging and fuzzy fungi feels below.
