As I have mentioned before, I love pretty much anything with blue cheese. When I saw this recipe for coleslaw with celery, apple and blue cheese, I really wanted to try it out. This combination sounded great. I also liked that fact that this recipe didn’t use mayo, since sometimes coleslaw can be so mayoContinue reading “Celery, Apple and Blue Cheese Coleslaw”

Seared Halibut with Ricotta Pea Puree

Roasted Broccoli Salad
This recipe is adapted from Pinch of Yum, which I love. Roasted broccoli salad is a different way to get some broccoli in your diet and the salami/bacon, garlic, shallot, lemon and parmesan make it way more delicious than the boring steamed broccoli I often make my family eat. 🙂 I made a few changesContinue reading “Roasted Broccoli Salad”

Dirty Rice + Cajun Corn Maque Choux
Does anyone else like Zatarains Dirty Rice mix? My husband and I ate it all the time in college when on a budget, and we haven’t had it in years. I decided to make some because it is delicious.

Carrot and Couscous Salad
I decided to make soup for dinner tonight and wanted a vegetable side dish to serve with it. When I made Thai red curry tofu the other day, I cooked the carrots before adding them to the curry by pan frying them in a tiny amount of oil until they were slightly tender. We reallyContinue reading “Carrot and Couscous Salad”
