Chili

Recipe Monday:  Vegetarian Butternut Squash & Black Bean Chili

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, RecipesBy Lisa FischerJanuary 25, 2021

Sometimes I just crack myself up – especially when cooking. Because I’ll either throw in an ingredient that isn’t on the ingredient list or forget to do something that I was supposed to do and somehow, magically, it all works out.  Take this dish for example. My friend Dana served it to me on Thursday;…

Recipe: Slow Cooker Basil Chicken in Coconut Curry Sauce

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, RecipesBy Lisa FischerJanuary 20, 2021

It’s National Slow Cooking Month, and it’s time to celebrate. I have heralded the slow cooker, aka crock pot, for many years. I even devoted a radio segment for 12 years on B98.5 every Wednesday to it called “Crock Pot Wednesday.” Clever, huh?    Well, I saw this little jewel today and thought I had…

Recipe Monday: Delicious Gluten-Free Healthy Brownies

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, RecipesBy Lisa FischerJanuary 18, 2021

I just tweaked a recipe to make the most delicious and indulgent pan of brownies with zero gluten or sugar. I used –I hope you’re sitting down – black beans and Swerve, which is a healthy sugar substitute.  Most sugar substitutes will kill you or give you dementia. Swerve won’t. If you want the real…

Recipe: Sesame Chicken

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, RecipesBy Kevin ShalinJanuary 14, 2021

I absolutely love cooking Chinese food at home. It gives me an opportunity to recreate my favorite takeout dishes, like sesame chicken, from years gone by. While I have tried out a few recipes, this one stands out and rivals many restaurants.   As far as modifications go, I opted to use chicken thigh meat…

Tomato Soup

Recipe Monday: Melissa Clark’s Curried Coconut Tomato Soup

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, RecipesBy Lisa FischerJanuary 11, 2021

I, like you, love a good snow day. But as my kids have moved out of the house, and I realize how sensitive I am to those all-day chocolate cookie baking days, I’m opting for soup and sandwiches.   I think grilled cheese and tomato soup is the best for any day, snow or no.…

Recipe Monday: Keto Cheesecake 

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, Recipes, UncategorizedBy Lisa FischerJanuary 4, 2021

Who’s on day four of their New Year’s resolutions?    If it’s to eat less sugar and increase fat, then you might be a part of the ketogenic diet craze. Many people have reported success eating that way, and Chef Amanda Ivy has let us steal a recipe that is yes, keto, and yes, delicious. …

Recipe: Cranberry Pound Cake

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, RecipesBy Lisa FischerDecember 23, 2020

Sometimes the day or two before Christmas, there is a tendency for a minor meltdown. Do I have enough food for my family? I mean, it’s Christmas. Go big or go home, right?   Here’s an easy recipe in the event you needed one more sweet thing for your table.   Cranberry Pound Cake  …

Recipe Monday: Easy Frittata 

Blog, Food, Recipe Monday, RecipesBy Lisa FischerDecember 21, 2020

Christmas Day is at the end of the week. And here’s my prediction: After Santa drops off the gifts the night before, those people who he’s bringing the gifts for-guess what? They are going to want breakfast, too.    They never NOT want food, ya ever notice that? So I found something you can prepare…
