Savory Strawberry Chèvre Flatbread Pizza Pi(e)

Today is a special day in my family, for several reasons. It is Pi Day, or when it comes to my mom’s side of the family, Pi(e) Day. (My family is very fond of food celebrations, although International Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day may be the most popular). For the mathematicians of the family, it is the […]

My mom came to visit a few weeks ago from southern California. When she arrived, we met up with my brother and grandmother at The Original Pancake House in Salt Lake City for breakfast. My mom ordered their popular apple pancake—a large eggy pancake (like a Dutch baby) topped with sautéed Granny Smith apples and […]

This post is brought to you by the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute. Cooking together is about so much more than preparing food. By pulling our kids into the kitchen, we can teach them how to feed themselves, but also give them a better understanding of where their food comes from. But cooking together is also […]

Have you ever had a dish that just sounds good, and so you go through a streak where you eat it all the time? Pad Thai has been that dish for me lately. I’ve been making it once a week for the past month. It has just been hitting the spot! If you’re not already […]

During the summer I embarked on an adventure to explore the world of sous vide cooking, which came to a screeching halt when we pulled up roots and moved. Well, I’m finally getting the cogs in motion again, and boy does it feel good! Life in general has gotten a lot more normal . . […]

Happy Valentine’s Day! One of the things my family loves is when I make a big batch of a green smoothie to share with them in the mornings. My kids thing green smoothies are the best things ever. I figured they would be equally happy with more of a treat coming out of the blender […]

Happy Valentine’s Day Eve!! I love this time of year. I love getting to celebrate love, in all its forms, just as thoughts of spring seem to be tickling the edges of Mother Nature’s consciousness. Here in Utah, things are already warming up, though I’m sure we’ve still got some cold spells ahead of us. […]

As I mentioned yesterday, I filmed a segment for Studio 5 that was all about onigiri. I had an absolute blast. Brooke Walker, the host, is a doll, and was a great sport making onigiri with me. The first time you make an onigiri, it usually falls apart (it takes one or two to learn […]

Yesterday I spent part of the day filming another segment for an episode of Studio 5 which airs today. My segment was all about onigiri (“oh-nee-gee-ree”). (My recipe for Honey Ginger Chicken Soboro Onigiri, which I made in the segment, is posted here!) Since TV time is short, I only got to make the briefest of […]

When it comes to food, many of your favorites likely have their own holiday. You already know that I observe National Pie Day on January 23rd, but what else is out there? Ice Cream For Breakfast Day? Yep, it’s a holiday (and one that my mom’s side of the family observes religiously each year). Pancake […]
