Swordfish in Fiery Tomato Curry Sauce

I decided to turn up the heat today!  Hot and fiery curry with no dairy to cool it down...oh yeah! I had defrosted a swordfish steak, but wasn't in the mood for any of my usual preparations for it.  I rummaged around in the pantry, and dragged out a big can of crushed tomatoes.  These two things would go together.  Well with a but of poking and prodding they would. My jalapenos were starting to look a little bit wilty... hence, they were going to the party as well.  I wanted something Continue Reading

Homemade Vegan Burger Recipe (gluten-free)

A homemade vegan burger that is also gluten free. Why a vegan gluten-free burger recipe, from someone who doesn't follow either diet? I like a challenge, and it really bugged me, that while my daughter was on the gluten-free diet, I couldn't find veggie burgers for her.  I was also surprised how many of the ready-made veggie burgers on the market are actually not vegan, and nearly none of the options are gluten-free.  While am not vegan, and my daughter is no longer on a gluten-free diet, I Continue Reading

Homemade Bean Burger Tacos: Easy Vegetarian Recipe

These homemade Vegetarian Bean Burger Tacos were a long time coming.  While I cook from scratch a lot,  several of my past attempts at vegetarian burgers have been...well, let's just say not worth repeating.  We are on a budget around here, so I hate paying close to $4 a box for lame frozen veggie burger patties, so I decided it was about time I gave it another shot.    This time, I really focused in on flavor, and went with some of my favorite Southwest ingredients in the bean burger mix: Continue Reading

Poblano Quinoa Recipe

This light vegetarian Poblano-Lime Quinoa recipe makes a quick and versatile entrée or side dish.  The easy recipe can be served either hot or cold and is both gluten-free and vegan too.  Here the quinoa is being served cold as a salad. Last night I had this quinoa warm with some spicy grilled shrimp on top for dinner.  The combination was outstanding.  Personally, I find it much easier to stay on track with healthy eating, when I keep things balanced and flavorful.  The tangy lime, fresh Continue Reading

Kale Saute topped with Egg and Goat Cheese

While kale might be in vogue right now, I grew up on it so it is standard fare for me. My half Portuguese mother grew it in our garden, and due to it's cold hardiness it was on hand throughout most of the winter.  While she used it in soups most of the time, it did end out in the occasional saute or braise. Currently, I'm working on ridding myself of the cookies and other pastries that settled around my waistline over the holidays.  While I still ended the year lighter than I started it, Continue Reading

Spiced Kamut and Chick Pea Salad Recipe

This Spiced Kamut and Chick Pea Salad is a quick and easy recipe, that will fit in with those healthy resolutions you've made. The garbanzo beans team so well with the chewy Kamut grains in the recipe. Some whole grains such as Kamut (an ancient strain of wheat berry, which is naturally lower in gluten), take a long time to cook .  Pre-boiling these whole grains, and having them on-hand makes it far easier to integrate them into your cooking. A little easy prep work can do a lot toward Continue Reading
