Homemade Pizza Crust, Sauce and Mozzarella Cheese
If you enjoy pizza as much as I do, then I hope you already are making it at home. A baking stone is a great thing to have for this purpose, but you can use the back of cookie sheet if you don’t. I like thin crust pizza, so I usually stretch my dough a [...]
Lemony Chicken Francese
This is a delicious way to serve chicken breasts, especially if you like lemon. Rumors about this dish go back to having the Italians serving it to Napoleon Bonaparte, but there aren’t any similar recipes from that era in that region so that story is suspect. More likely, it is a simple dish started stateside [...]
Hot Buttered Rum Cocktail
Nothing wrong with some hot buttered rum, especially this time of year. A simple and warming beverage for a small group or a large party. I prefer light rum, but feel free to use dark if you prefer. I usually use brown sugar but have substituted agave syrup in a pinch, using a bit [...]
Poached Shrimp with Cocktail Sauce
One of my all time favorite foods is shrimp. I can eat them all day! I used to buy shrimp that were peeled and deveined already but I recently started buying wild caught white gulf prawns that I peel and devein myself. They are a superior shrimp, in my opinion, to farm raised ones [...]
Egg Flower Soup
This is one of my favorite soups when I go out for Chinese food. It is simple and quick to make, and can be varied with ingredients on hand. Sometimes I add a handful of frozen peas, sometimes I add tofu. This recipe is enough to serve 4 people, but you can easily double [...]
Simple Shrimp Scampi
Shrimp are one of my “go to” foods because they are fast, versatile, and are relatively healthy with low fat and high protein. And they’re delicious. I usually have a bag of frozen shrimp on hand in the freezer. They defrost in a few minutes in a bowl of cold water, so they are a [...]
Smoked Salmon Parcels with cream cheese, dill and lime
This is a great recipe if you want to impress. It is surprisingly simple to prepare and very elegant to serve. I live in the Pacific Northwest so I use locally wild caught salmon that has been smoked and cut thin. Lox, essentially, is what you want. Smoked Salmon Parcels Serves 4 to 6 (ramekin/muffin [...]
Easy Jalapeno Poppers with Pepper jelly drizzle
These are always a big hit when I serve them at parties so I thought you might like the recipe this time of year. It is easy to vary the number of servings so you can adjust accordingly. Baking the peppers seems to mellow the heat of the jalapenos, but watch the cooking time [...]

Garlic Chicken Breast with Roasted Tomato Sauce, Peppers and Sugar Snaps
This is another simple and fast recipe created for the “Cooking for One” class I recently did. Having a variety of fresh produce items and fresh herbs really gives you options for a fast and healthy dinner. A boneless chicken breast can be done in so many satisfying ways…and this one is beautiful, too. [...]
