Kitchen Classics: Shepherd’s Pie

by Ricki Heller 21 Comments

Some things just never change.  As a result, there are certain aspects of our lives upon which we all tend to rely. For instance, you expect that Wile E. Coyote will tumble down the mountainside (an anvil in hot pursuit), only to re-emerge the following week without so much as a scratch–and start all over […]

The Original Slow Cooker: Review of 150 Best Tagine Recipes

by Ricki Heller 71 Comments

[Hearty, slurpy, stick-to-your-ribs Lentil and Almond Tagine] Up until last month, the only tagine I had ever eaten were this one ** or one at a small Middle Eastern restaurant that the HH and I went to in the early days of our relationship. But then I was contacted by the lovely Martine from Robert […]

Kitchen Classics: Curried Red Lentil (or Split Pea) Soup

by Ricki Heller 35 Comments

I well remember the unbridled glee we all felt in grade school when, first thing in the morning, the Principal walked in to announce that we’d have a substitute teacher that day. We kids practically roared with excitement at the prospect of (a) getting a reprieve from homework (because the substitute, of course, never knew […]

Red Lentil Pate

by Ricki Heller 27 Comments

[Simple to make, delicious to eat: red lentil pâté] The first time I purchased an ebook from Christy Morgan (aka The Blissful Chef), all I really knew about her was (a) she lived in LA; and (b) she cooked according to macrobiotic principles.  Well, since I’d studied the macrobiotic diet in nutrition school, I  knew it […]

Food for What Ails Ya: Lentil Rissoles

by Ricki Heller 35 Comments

Just like Anna Karenina’s unhappy families, everyone deals with illness in her or his own way. The HH, for instance, when struck with a cold or flu, takes to his (ie, our) bed for two days or so.  He doesn’t talk; he doesn’t watch TV; he doesn’t eat; he barely uses the bathroom. Then, after […]

Lucky Comestible III (4): Lentil Pistachio Patties

by Ricki Heller 18 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 […]

Week at Warp Speed and Easy Dinner

by Ricki Heller 21 Comments

What?  Can it really be that a week has gone by already?  While it does feel like a long time since I’ve been blogging (and boy, did I ever miss it), I am amazed at how quickly these seven days have whizzed by. So, how did I spend my week of catch-up? First, I resolved to eat only […]
