What do you get when you take a half-opened can of tomatoes, leftover chick peas and wilting spinach?

Over the holidays, I was dealing with some longstanding dental issues. While I was laid up nursing a sore mouth, food became a focus of my life more than ever. What I could eat, when I could eat, IF I could eat.
So you’ve listened to my advice and tried the Upside-Down Apple Pancake. It came out just as you’d hoped, everyone loved it, you are the master of your kitchen domain. Good for you!
Except there’s just one teeny tiny thing:You’re left with two extra egg yolks.
That’s why I’ll always keep this recipe around. This upside-down apple pancake is an old fave in my family. It’s fairly easy, it’s just special enough to impress without feeling OTT, and it’s oh so delicious.
Isn’t she a beauty.
After a failed attempted last fall to cultivate a starter culture for leavening bread, I was disappointed but definitely not put off.
It’s not easy bein’ cheesy.
Actually it couldn’t be easier.
Make a white sauce, in the microwave to really speed things up, add in some sharp old cheddar (or your favourite cheese or cheeses), and in the time it takes for the pasta to cook, bam!
Cheesy macaroni goodness.
Call me nuts, but this almond brittle could be my new favourite recipe.
Why, you ask? I’ll tell you. Two words: sugar and almonds. That’s it. Well, not quite. I mean you need a pot, a stove and a cookie sheet but, you see where I’m going with this.
One of the things I love about making food is how I find recipes, how I find inspiration. Maybe inspiration finds me, I’m not sure. What I do know for sure, is that I almost didn’t try these latkes, and that would have been a real shame.
