I know, I know… another Hatch Chile recipe. But this is the last one, I swear (at least for this year). There are only a couple weeks left to enjoy the fresh Hatch chiles, so I’m trying to get as much out of them as possible and I want you to experience the joy as… Continue reading Hatch Chile Hummus

Roasted Grape and Fig Relish
My family and I just can’t get enough of all the fresh summer fruits available right now. While stone fruits are far and away my favorite, there’s another fruit that shows up toward the end of July that we all love just as much, if not more – grapes. Turns out the guys over at… Continue reading Roasted Grape and Fig Relish
Hatch Chile Guacamole
We’re right in the middle of Hatch Chile season. So, if you’re a chile fan, you’re going to want to strike while the iron (or chile) is hot. Unlike other popular chiles, these beautiful green chiles are only available for about 6 weeks, from August to September. That short time period makes these chiles extra… Continue reading Hatch Chile Guacamole
Rhubarb Chutney
My father is not a rhubarb fan. As a matter of fact, he hates it. So you can imagine how excited he was every time rhubarb season came and my mother (who is a fan) would stock up and make her rhubarb/strawberry sauce for me and my sister to snack on. My father would smile,… Continue reading Rhubarb Chutney
Honey Mustard Pretzel Crunch
The Big Game is Sunday and if you’re anything like me you’re having a party. A party means guests, guests usually mean hungry people and that means you want to make sure you have a lot of yummy treats available. Finger foods that are easy to pick up and gobble between touchdowns. Chips and salsa… Continue reading Honey Mustard Pretzel Crunch
Pomegranate-Corn Salsa
Unless you’re living under a rock, you know that the big game is less than two weeks away. Even if your teams didn’t make it to the big show (yes, my Pats were humiliated on Sunday meaning their season is over), you may be having a few people over to watch the game anyway. And… Continue reading Pomegranate-Corn Salsa
New Props to Show off my Strawberry Bruschetta
I love food bloggers. They’re so generous, friendly and just an all around nice group of people. Here’s a perfect example of what I’m talking about. A couple months ago I heard about this awesome event thought up by Alyssa of www.EverydayMaven.com and Faith of www.AnEdibleMosaic.com. It was a Food Blogger Prop Swap. What’s a Prop Swap? It’s… Continue reading New Props to Show off my Strawberry Bruschetta
Fig Jam & Blue Cheese Corners
Did you know it’s National Grilled Cheese month? Not that I need a specific month or day to make and eat a grilled cheese, but the fact that the whole month is devoted to this delectable sandwich makes me want to eat them as much as possible. And any combination will do. I don’t care… Continue reading Fig Jam & Blue Cheese Corners
Cheesy Apricots in Blankets
If you know anything about me you know I love cheese. Soft cheeses, hard cheeses, even those cheese slices wrapped in cellophane. Yes, it’s true I do like those Kraft slices, please don’t judge me. But back to the cheese. I love trying new cheeses on their own and also creating recipes with those cheeses.… Continue reading Cheesy Apricots in Blankets
Greek Salad Kabobs
A few weekends ago I was up in the mountains for Camp Blogaway. In the main lodge was a networking table where the other “campers” could leave their business cards and/or other things for us to add to our swag bag. While I only had my cards on the table, several other campers had recipes,… Continue reading Greek Salad Kabobs
Marinated Mushrooms
I love the Superbowl. The parties, the game, the commercials… did I mention the parties? My hubs and I have been throwing a party every year for at least the past 10. Each year we invite a big group of people over to watch the game and laugh at the commercials. It’s always a blast. But… Continue reading Marinated Mushrooms
