Foodie Friday rides again!

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

Today, I bring you Layered Italian Salad from chatelaine.com.  I love Chatelaine’s recipes.  Their index is super-easy to search and they’ve got thousands of great recipes.  I’ve never had one turn out poorly.  You can find the original link here.

 

 
 
 
Orzo, to the unitiated, is a type of pasta that masquerades as rice.  You can find [...]

Revenge of Foodie Friday

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Today for your dining pleasure, I am posting a recipe for penne with creamy white bean sauce.  It’s from Rose Reisman’s Light Vegetarian Cooking.  I love this recipe because it’s quicky, healthy and I usually have the ingredients on hand.  Ten points to the author for coming up for a use for capers that didn’t [...]

Son of foodie Friday

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

Sorry about the title, I just got finished watching a Pink Panther movie.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a young adult who visits their parents for dinner will not be permitted to leave without taking food with them.  Sometimes it’s leftovers, sometimes it’s dessert…this time it was fresh rhubarb (this is after I refused to [...]

The return of foodie Friday

Friday, May 8th, 2009

Happy Friday, everyone!  Today’s recipe is for broccoli salad.  This recipe is easy to make, delicious, reasonably healthy and keeps well in the fridge.  Mr. Shuffler believes that this dish represents broccoli’s raison d’être and that any dish involving the use of broccoli other than this salad is a waste of perfectly good broccoli.  My [...]

It’s another foodie Friday!

Friday, May 1st, 2009

Happy foodie Friday, everyone!  Today’s recipe is a Moroccan-inspired lamb curry that I got from Canadian Living’s Best.  I love Moroccan food but it’s not for everybody.  Many North African dishes mix savoury and sweet flavours.  If you’re not expecting, you’ll wonder why there’s powdered sugar sprinkled over your chicken-based appetizer and apricots in your [...]

Foodie Friday

Friday, April 24th, 2009

Today’s post is in keeping with this week’s running theme, “(Unimportant) Things that irritate me”.  I have many food-related irritants.  Not allergies or dislikes, I mean things that bother me on the level of my principles (I feel very strongly about food).  Wine spritzers, for instance.  There is something fundamentally wrong about taking a nice [...]

Slightly late Foodie Friday

Friday, April 17th, 2009

Greetings faithful readers!  It’s been one of THOSE weeks around here.  Nothing really major went wrong; my stress levels are high but not astronomical.  Still, I feel like trying to get anything done this week has been a major battle and I don’t feel like I’ve accomplished much.  I’m saying this not to bring you [...]

A very special Easter treat

Friday, April 10th, 2009

Since they didn’t turn out half-bad, I bring you…
Chocolate cranberry hot cross buns
Strictly, speaking, these probably don’t constitute “runner fuel” so much as they are “runner treats”.  But they are quite delicious and seasonably appropriate so I think the occasional treat is okay (for me, occasional would be twice a day, or so).  I got [...]

Stay tuned…

Friday, April 10th, 2009

…a special Easter-themed edition of foodie Friday is coming your way in a matter of hours.  Today’s feature is currently overnighting in the fridge but promises to be absolutely scrumptious.  Unless it doesn’t turn out.  In which case, just forget this post every happened.
P.S. I can tell you that the upcoming feature dish will not involve fish [...]

Foodie Friday – trail mix edition

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

Today’s Friday foodie post is all about trail mix.  For some reason, I’ve been craving some trail mix lately.  This was sparked in part by a couple of hungry afternoons at my office when I neglected to pack a snack and the only other option was vending machine junk.  Surprisingly, the vending machine did have [...]
