Love this! It’s a fun twist on traditional tabbouleh, which is made with bulgur. This dish comes out of my kitchen with frequency during the summer months. It is very versatile; I make it as as a one-dish dinner served over a bed of spinach or as a side to grilled chicken, or roasted pork […]
I usually use short-grain brown rice, but sometimes I’ll make wild rice or white rice. If using white rice, reduce the amount of water from 1 3/4 cup to 1 1/2 cup. The primary differences among types of rice can be attributed to the predominant type of starch. Long grain rice expands more when cooked […]
This recipe for my Easter Menu was inspired by the Lemon Barley Pilaf from Epicurious Lemon Barley Pilaf Given that orzo is a pasta, I think it will be more enticing to little ones with selective palates that will celebrate Easter with us. If whole-wheat orzo is not easily available, this can be made with […]

Fresh, tender asparagus says “Hello Spring!” in a most deliciously way. Buying local means buying seasonal. Shopping at the local Farmer’s Market past couple years has become a marvelous way to connect with nature. Ditto on the tomatoes. The sun-ripe flavor of local fresh tomatoes is burst of sunshine in the mouth, utterly incomparable to the grocery […]
Growing up in Bolivia, quinoa was a staple. When I moved to the US to go to college, I missed it so much that every trip home, I always packed a good supply to take back. It was exciting when quinoa started showing up in US stores, and is now everywhere. I love its unique […]
