Hi–and Hiatus

by Ricki Heller 26 Comments

For those of you who drop by DDD regularly, you may have noticed that the frequency of my posts has slowed down considerably of late.  Well, once again, it’s that time of the semester when I’m deep into a marking blitz and consequently feel as if I’m neglecting this blog.  That, paired with an impromptu visit from […]

Zucchini and Pineapple Mini Loaves

by Ricki Heller 36 Comments

You know, there are days when I just marvel at how much my life has been enriched by joining the world of blogging. I’m amazed at how many positive experiences this little outlet for self-expression, culinary creativity and the occasional star-struck reference to my favorite soap opera has brought my way. At the forefront, of course, is […]

Rustic Plum-Topped Cornmeal Breakfast Cake

by Ricki Heller 17 Comments

[Red plums, white(ish) cake, blue(ish) other plums–Happy 4th of July!] Our recent visit to Montreal last week, like most of our road trips, involved a hamper of food to stave off starvation en route.  As is my wont, the night before travelling, I basically ransack the kitchen and tote along anything that’s hardy enough to last the voyage. The list […]

Butter Tarts, Glorious and Free (of Eggs and Dairy)

by Ricki Heller 38 Comments

[How about that red and white background?  Pretty patriotic, eh?] There’s an annual event in Montreal called The High Lights Festival in which (among other things) La Belle Ville invites chefs from other world-class cities to cook alongside the Quebeçois culinary masters and exchange ideas. This year (2008), the guest city was the very one […]

Lucky Comestible III (5): Tropical Lemon-Coconut Muffins

by Ricki Heller 32 Comments

[I thought it would be fun to run a little series over here at DDD: I’ll profile one one of my favorite foods, or a food that I’ve recently discovered and enjoyed, over several days.  For this third entry, I’m focusing on Avocados. The series is presented on an occasional (and entirely arbitrary) basis, before I move on to the next lucky […]

Raw Milky Way Bars

by Ricki Heller 37 Comments

I can hardly believe that my Grain Drain detox week is already at an end (that, and the fact I’ve posted a measly TWO food-related blog entries about it!). The dearth of recipes this past week was due, in part, to an incredibly hectic schedule–there was a multitude of student assignments to mark (strange how the mountain of […]

Flash in the Pan: Cocoa Nibbles (or, La”Raw” Bar)

by Ricki Heller 48 Comments

[EDIT, February 2012:  You all know I love Ellen DeGeneres, right?  And Ellen loves this recipe!  I couldn’t be more thrilled that she decided to share on her Going Vegan with Ellen page.  Thank you, Ellen! 😀 ] Sometimes, you just want to eat something now.  I’ve decided to offer a mini-post every once in […]

When Cheesecake is Love*

by Ricki Heller 29 Comments

*apologies to Geneen Roth   [Well, I really hadn’t meant to write about my mother for two entries in a row.  Maybe it was all of your wonderful comments about yesterday’s “mom story”; maybe it was an offshoot of Mother’s Day earlier in the month; maybe I’m just feeling all mushy and sentimental after watching the over-the-top , tear-filled […]

Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free French Toast Souffle with Summer Berries

by Ricki Heller 40 Comments

In my mind, here’s the perfect way to wake up on a Sunday morning: Outside, the weather is balmy. A mild breeze whispers through the slightly opened window, curtains undulating softly with each invisible breath.  The sun makes its presence known through the diaphanous curtain as it tickles the pillows of our bed with little sparkles of laughing light.
