Cucumber Onion Salad – Recipe
08/14/2010This is a pretty quick and handy dish, especially in the summer when everyone you know has a boat load of cucumbers to give away. Plus, using your chef knife to slice through those cucumbers as if they were butter, gives you a real sense of accomplishment.
Spaghetti with Meatballs – Trader Joe’s Meatless Meatballs
02/05/2010This is an easy one and one you probably don’t need to read. However it does point back to the marinara sauce recipe which is what’s really important.

Canned Soup – not the obvious
01/05/2010You might have read other recipes on this blog and noticed there’s no sin here in taking a can off the shelf, opening it and using it to make something good. There’s also no sin in using dried herbs and spices. If they’re not as flavorful as fresh herbs and spices, just use a little more.

12/26/2009
There are tons of salsa recipes available. If you have a favorite, you’re probably not reading this. If you don’t have a favorite, then the most likely best thing to do if you know of a salsa you like is ask the person or restaurant who made it for the recipe. The worst that could happen is they won’t give you the recipe. Aside from that, here’s a simple one. I make it to find a use for my small food processor and because it’s good. (Oster 3320 150-Watt 3-Cup Food Chopper with Whisk Attachment ). However you could probably do just as well with a knife, cutting board, bowl and spoon.
