One Pot Meals: Chickpea Curry" Now that my son Hugh is a full time cheesemonger, he doesn't get to spend much time at our cottage during the summer. He was with us this past weekend, and as always it was a pleasure. Not just because he plays scrabble, boggle and crokinole with me, mostly beating me I might add, but because he loves to cook and eat and I often learn something from him. He is vegetarian and not such a long time ago was a poverty stricken university student, so I thought he would be valuable in helping me work out a one pot meal that would be fast, easy, nutritious, delicious and cheap.
And it proved to be the case. He eats a lot of tofu and I'm always encouraging him to add more legumes to his diet, so I decided on something with chickpeas. We ate this with pappadums, but you could serve it with any Indian flatbread, or pita bread or you could serve it over rice. Chickpea Curry 1. 2. 3. Difficulty Level: Easy.

It should taste right with sour cream and green onions. Chili’s supposed to be fun. I’d pretty much given up on ever finding a meatless version that deserved to be called chili – until I stumbled across this recipe from Emeril Lagasse. Finally, a meatless chili that’s delicious and fun. Now, pass the Fritos. Aromatic Curried-Chili Fusion. Chili cross-bred with curry…sounds kind of weird hey?

~The Vegan Project. Vegetarian. Spicy Black Bean Cakes Recipe. Peanut Butter Crusted Sweet Potato Fries – Fake Ginger. If you forced me to make a list of my top 5 favorites foods, sweet potatoes and peanut butter would be numbers 1 and 2. I cannot believe I’d never though to combine them – they are seriously a match made in heaven.

Grilled Avocados. Avocados have been a mainstay of my culinary life for about as long as I can remember. Growing up in Southern California in the 60's, avocados were locally grown, plentiful and part of just about every party and celebration, usually in the form of guacamole. But all that changed and guacamole became the springboard for a host of dishes, sweet and savory, but for me, nothing beats a plain slice of perfectly ripe avocado. It really needs nothing to enhance its lusciousness, but then....
The other day as I was listening to one of my food podcasts, Evan Kleiman was interviewing an avocado grower who mentioned that one of his favorite ways to eat avocados is to grill them. THAT night I’m so grilling an avocado. Remove it from your grill and and sprinkle with a little lime juice and salt. Here's a quick and easy salsa recipe.

Using an electric mixer beat the cream cheese until smooth and lump-free. Mozzarella Sticks. When I told my friends I was planning on making homemade mozzarella sticks for a guy’s weekend out of town the idea was met with a profound lack of enthusiasm. Everybody knows that I like to experiment in the kitchen, but somehow the idea of making a bar food staple like mozzarella sticks from scratch seemed like a complete waste of time to the group. After being lectured about the innumerable brands available in the freezer section at the grocery store and a heated debate about whether marinara or ranch is the better dipping accompaniment, I decided to risk further heckling and see if I couldn’t one-up T.G.I.
Friday’s in my own kitchen. It might have been the alcohol, but the first batch was gone within a matter of seconds.

My son’s favorite game in the whole world is Let’s Play With The Other Baby! You Know, The One We Keep In The Mirror. We bring him over to this giant mirror in the hallway and he goes berserk, he paws at the “other” baby, kicks his legs, squeals and laughs.
It cracks us up too. Babies: they’re so cute when they’re kinda confused! It took us a few weeks to realize how sad this game actually is. My little monkey is so outgoing and eager to make friends that he’ll play with an imaginary baby that lives in the mirror to get his fix. Or more accurately, what I didn’t make: baked eggs and busy stratas and quiche and baked French toast and winter fruit salads and anything involving jam on bread or plates and forks.
