Bison Chili
I know, I know, I know. It’s MAY. Which is more than officially spring. I should be posting fresh asparagus recipes, or greener than green salads, or something fresh and colorful, right? Instead, I have chili. Seriously? In May? But yes, chili. See spring is a rather evil season in most of the northern part…

Vegetable Samosas and Cilantro Dipping Sauce
Indian food, I so miss Indian food. It’s so yummy, and there aren’t a lot of Indian places that would be safe for me between the dairy and coconut thing, even if the corn thing weren’t an issue. Once of my very favorite appetizers to get were Vegetable Samosas. I love them. It’s been…

Magic Spring Cakes
It is no real secret that I’m a huge fan of marshmallow Peeps chicks. I do not know what it is about the goofy things that tickles me so, but they have for years. And it’s not their food value — I don’t really like them that much to eat. They’re just ridiculously cute and…

Making Bacon, Squared (i.e. two versions)

Eat Your Veggies for Breakfast Patties
Everyone who knows me for a little while knows that I live for potatoes. I will eat them in almost any form, any time of day, and many meals in a row — and multiple forms in one meal, if that happens to be an option. I’ve posted other potato recipes here, but this may…

Potato and Roasted Garlic Soup
Before the food allergy apocalypse hit, I was a sucker for those huge 9 x 12 inch gorgeously photographed 200 page cookbooks that were always on sale for 5 or 6 bucks on the clearance tables at Borders (when it still existed) or Barnes & Noble. I have about six of them. When Mary Kate…

Roasted Vegetable Stock
I know. It’s spring. Or, rather, “spring.” The thing is? It’s still pretty cold here, and on top of that, damp. So, basically, it’s still soup weather, and rather than being cranky about it, let’s just make some good veggie stock to cook up some of the vegetables that might, in a perfect world, soon…

Lime Lollipops
This recipe is part of my campaign to get some candy back in my life, although in all likelihood, at a much reduced rate of intake than was so prior to the corn thing. To start out with, I used a recipe for No Corn Syrup Lollipops from Snappyliving.com, but since I can’t use artificial…
