Hola Delicious peeps,
So a few days ago I made a Cuban Black Bean soup and that got my fire going for latin food...so Sofrito is simmering and I am thinking about making Ropa Vieja, Platanos, Yucca and some Arroz Amarillo tomorrow. What I really want is to walk into a Cuban restaurant and have someone serve this to me but...alas...in the desert...no island *sigh*. Oh well. I am on a salt kick too..must have been dehydrated. So all of yall Super Bowl freaks, if you want something really simple for a dip (I made this all the time, super easy and a great dip for raw veggies) try this: 1 Cup Peppercorn Ranch Dressing 1/8 C Tapatio or Franks Red Hot sauce Simple and really good. If your friends are like mine they will be dipping everything into the mix.

I'm trying a new recipe for ceviche that I found. This looks more like it is designed for part of a meal, rather then a dip, like the other recipe that I have, is. Hopefully, it works out well, though.

I want to relax tonight but I also want to cook something as a special treat! I had subway for supper and I skipped fast food after skiing.
I am thinking about doing an asian inspired stirfry - hearty, warm and full of crunchy veggies with rice noodles. I may also make a simple pudding to make a parfait over the weekend. I love reading all of your recipes! I am going to attempt making a different one each week ![]() |

Oh...the bacon wrapped apple fritters...destined to be a cult classic. Truly off the HOOK! I am contemplating a caramelized bacon wrapped caramel apple. Will report back on that one. Today I dropped into Williams Sonoma to look at the knives..I am still so sad about losing my favorite knife ![]()

It's not ridiculous, I'd be pouting and sighing until I found something that might even satisfy the void. That caramel apple sounds delicious! Confection stuff has always interested me but I can't seem to wrap my brain around it like I can cooking meals. Maybe it's something to look into for the future. When I promote my own project I can also have a tasting sample out to make sure they come back LOL |

Hello everybody! been some time since I been in here. Ya'll have been busy and posting yumminess all over here. YUM!
I was wondering what the hell sriracha was. I'm starting to see it everywhere so thanks to those that are posting about it. LOL! Datil chiles, I think I heard about them when I first moved to FL just over a year ago those and them damn boiled peanuts. haha. and I still haven't tried either! Speaking of festivals, FL has one for the datil chile. They also have a strawberry one http://www.flstrawberryfestival.com/ that I would love to attend sometime. Looks very cool! I also want to go to this chocolate place for a tour https://www.facebook.com/ChocolateKingdom I think it would be interesting to see how chocolate is made. I had the priviledge while in Mexico once to see how tequila is made. That was quite interesting too. What cool and awesome festivals and tours have you attended relating to food?! |

There are a ton of food festivals in CA & AZ, impossible to get to all of them but...since AZ starts warming up about now..there are a lineup of festivals slated for the next 3 months. Some are bbq, bbq & beer, beer, and one big one in Scottsdale which is a multi Chef event. In CA I like the Garlic Festival the best of all and of course the State Fair. The problem with Strawberry Festivals imo is that they are not organic and therefore, sprayed with poison. Siracha is fabulous but speaking of poison...loaded with sulfites. So make your own. It is the preferred ingredient in Japanese sushi spicy tuna rolls..my favorite roll. However many people are allergic to sulfites and have not a clue. No wonder...the stuff is used all over the market.

The only confection that I knock out on a regular basis is Truffle so the ganache is a no brainer for me by now. I do a lot of sauces though, caramel, raspberry, chocolates in variations, recently caramel with sea salt..and so on. Given our cultural fixation with candy I should make it more often. The Truffles are always a special event..especially for a special date or something of the sort. Nothing like home made chocolate to put a smile on a ladies face.

I admit to being more of a hunter/gatherer where food is concerned...Teddy is the cooker...lol but I WILL share nummy treats that I find as we go along...
SO...the latest greatest thing is! Artichoke spinach YOGURT dip from Trader Joes! It's not all fat laden like some of the other spinach/artichoke dips, has a GREAT texture (I'm all about texture) and they even add in red peppers for color. Tasty Treats! We have them with the flaxseed and veggie chips from TJs also... ![]() |

You have to pop on Teds Facebook and check out my Apple Fritter & Ice Cream pics. Quite insane. I love that dip from Trader Joes. The Chips are awesome too. Good stuff. Are you still avoiding the Chocolate Pudding? That is the best. I need to get over there and pick up a few things. Btw I have all of my friends hooked on the dried mango with chili and the chicken sausages. Funny how that works.

Oh forgot to mention that my Bff is Austrian and she had to bring me to this German Sausage Company that was insane. The food is so good. We also picked up heavy dense dark bread from Germany and Butter from Austria.
OMG ![]() Love that place. I think I tried..seriously...12 different types of German sausage. Cant wait to go back.

Dude I am good. All I am doing is losing weight. I eat really healthy, trust me. The high fat food is in extreme moderation. Did you see that green drink posted on Facebook? Yeah I drink and eat more vegetables in a day than most americans consume in a week.

Today was the second lesson in the kitchen with Bek - pumpkin soup day for my little sous chef. She did well!
It is not soup weather, but we had a 2/3 of a big pumpkin to use up. No matter, we both enjoyed it for lunch anyway. I remember being a couple of years older than her, my first time making pumpkin soup, at the first place I ever lived in on my own. The recipe never said to drain the pumpkin, but it didn't say not to either. I drained it. Bad decision! I should have called Mum! Glad to know Bek will be better prepared than me, if she ever leaves home (I don't think I'll mind if she doesn't) Speaking of German sausage, last time we were at the local markets Bek decided to try one. It had chunks of cheese in it. I think she liked it. The fat factor is not a concern with her, she's a tiny little thing - could do with some more weight on her. |

Good Morning Delicious peeps
Well I got to start my mornng off with some hate mail. Crazy how some people act when they do not get what they want. So whats good everyone? What are yall cooking today? I need some mega coffee that was one long night. We have this German coffee that translates into something like "This will build you up and make you strong!" So now my buddy Jim and I are joking around about how much this coffee is going to "build us up" *smirk* its kinda cute really.

I love coffee! I had the best fair trade roasted blend this morning at the farmers market. I bartered my serviced with a few of the local vendors and got some honey, maple syrup, organic granola, fruits veggies and a homemade pie. I don't know what I will be cooking today - I had chicken samosa's for lunch. I may stick with the indian cuisine and do a butter chicken lasagna or something? Served with rice or a salad? I like rustic cooking with a touch of my personal flare. \ |

Love you two. Yall are so frigging adorable. The Chicken sausages really are amazing you should try some. I am still making a pot of vegetable soup every day and getting a lot of vegetable nutrition that way, then I snack on raw veggies and juice veggies. When I was in Atlanta I was not juicing and not eating enough veg, though I did manage to find raw veg every day but what a difference. Running 15 hours average a day plus the mental workout, I realized how much I rely on vegetable nutrition. Another thing too is that plenty of vitamin C, D and healthy digestive enzymes make this odd season with not enough sunshine or fresh produce tolerable. If you ever get the chance to try that "Kale-Aid" raw juice that I posted about, do it. Its insane.
