Quick Wedge Salad
Another one of those: “Bring a little USA to the Netherlands,” recipes is a wedge salad. If you’re Dutch, chances are you’ll be frowning now, wondering just what the heck a wedge salad is. You see, here in Holland we never, ever eat our lettuce in wedge form. It’s just not something you’ll see happening here. Not in our homes, not in our restaurants, nowhere really. Bringing plates filled with…
Puff Pastry Tapas
Woke up to sunshine this morning. I feel like singing! Love this time of year, especially when the sun isn’t as scorching and unforgiving as it can be midsummer. When by 11pm there’s still enough light in the sky to get by with only a small lemon candle to keep those pesky mosquitos at bay. When I can smell the heavy scent of honeysuckle in the air while sipping ice…
Tapas (burgers)
I named this “Tapas” knowing very well that tapas is more a Spanish way of eating than it is a specific food. Tapas are small bites. Snacks or appetizers, if you will, either served cold, warm or luke-warm. Kinda like my Spanish Varillas. I rarely go out to dinner but when I do get all dolled up, apply three layers of paint to hide the dark circles under my eyes,…
Cherry Coke & Jalapeño Meatballs
Well, they’re actually cherry coke & jalapeño glazed meatballs, but that didn’t fit into the excerpt title on my landing page. Shrugs. These are my go to snack meatballs, but don’t let me stop you from having them for dinner. They’re spicy, I won’t lie. They’re not going to make your eyes tear up or pop out of their sockets, but they’ll definitely get a ‘Whoa baby!’ if you do it…
Cheddar and Jalapeño Spirals
This isn’t really a recipe, it’s just a quick variation to an older snack recipe I posted about two years ago: my simple Parmesan Twists. I usually prepare a whole batch of these because they’re not only delicious but especially simple and rather cheap. I posted my Cheese & Onion Butterflies the year after. I was craving a snack. Something. Anything. The only thing in my freezer were a few…
Country-Style Green Beans
Here’s an oldie. Really old. The photos clearly show it was shot with one of my first cameras. Without a tripod, on a dark winter day with a terrible color balance. Hey, we all gotta start somewhere! (just covering my butt here). I just didn’t have time to reshoot the recipe. Anyway, it’s a special thanksgiving recipe that I made for a guest posting a couple years ago. It wasn’t meant…
