Hazelnut Cookie Granola

April 27, 2014

Hazelnut Cookie Granola I bought some roasted hazelnuts a week ago to make a magic custard cake for Easter but ended up baking a lovely naked lemon cake instead. I’m fickle like that. So I dreamed up a new cookie granola flavor starring my unused filberts….

Sriracha Chicken and Quinoa Bowl

April 26, 2014

Sriracha Chicken and Quinoa Bowl My husband and I decided to make a second visit to Blue Line Pizza for some deep dish, so I’m off kitchen duty tonight.  But if you need to get dinner on the table, I have the recipe for you, assuming you like spicy food. There’s nothing fancy about this Sriracha chicken and quinoa dish, but it packs a flavor and protein punch, requires a short list of ingredients, and takes only 30 minutes to prepare. It’s healthy, too!…

April 23, 2014

Sauteed Potato Salad With Maple-Balsamic Vinaigrette I’ve already told you about my aversion to gluey and bland potato salad so I won’t bore you with details as to why this potato salad is superior.

Thai Forbidden Rice Salad

April 22, 2014

Thai Forbidden Rice Salad For a Chinese person, I don’t eat a lot of rice. When it comes to carbohydrates, bread, pasta and potatoes rule my world. And when I do cook rice, I often stray from the plain white variety, opting instead for Arborio (to make creamy risottos), brown (which has a subtle nutty flavor and slight chew that I prefer) and, most recently, forbidden. Yes, such a kind exists!…

Naked Lemon Cake

April 21, 2014

Naked Lemon Cake On most holidays and random weekends, my immediate family likes to get together for dinner. And in more cases than not, we dine in. My mom and dad provide the main dish (and then some) and I often bring a side and/or dessert – an approach that takes the burden off any one person. The meal is always a success and so much more meaningful than eating out, at least in my mind….

Finnish Cinnamon Rolls

April 19, 2014

Finnish Cinnamon Rolls Sometimes I’ll make something just because I think it’s pretty. Don’t get me wrong – I won’t attempt a recipe if I don’t think it will taste good, but it’s more fun to work on if the finished product has some eye appeal. Such was the case with these Finnish cinnamon rolls aka korvapuusti or “slapped ears.”…
