Tuscan Grilled Veggies

Za'atar Labney Roasted Garlic Dip

Za’atar Labneh Roasted Garlic Dip

Ooooh!  This recipe is a perfect choice to take to a holiday party – you wanna know why?  Because you really want to eat it all yourself, & taking it means you get to eat it slathered all over a few slices of pita & walk away. I don’t think I would be walking away […]

Forbidden Rice Soup

Forbidden Rice Soup

Forbidden Rice Soup is purple. It’s a comforting kind of purple, with lots of veggies peeking out of the soup, but purple-ish grey is not a color that many are accustomed to when looking into their soup bowl.  So be prepared.

Coriander Carrot Soup

Coriander Carrot Soup

I first had Coriander Carrot Soup in London many years ago & instantly wondered why this soup wasn’t more popular here in the U.S.  It’s a bit sweet & earthy – typically rounded out by coconut milk or cream. The last time I was in London I had the pleasure of cooking for a dinner […]
