Caprese-Style Pasta Salad with Grilled Sausages; Beetles

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 31, 2020 by KatieJuly 31, 2020
Pasta Salad with Sausage

It’s still salad season….. But the salads have switched from greens to grains or, in this case, pasta. Any kind of salad is welcome when the summer heat hits. In winter I love hearty soups and stews and lasagnes but in summer I want something light and easy that comes together with a minimal amount of work. And when half of that work is done outside by mon mari it’s … Continue reading →

Grilled Chicken Pasta Salad; a new plan

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 26, 2020 by KatieJune 26, 2020
Grilled Chicken Pasta

This is a warm salad rather than a hot pasta main course. It’s summer. We like food that can be finished, and then left to sit a bit while we enjoy the sunset and a glass of chilled rosado. We never been particularly precise about mealtimes. We tend to be even more relaxed, both with the cooking and the eating, in summer. The pandemic has given us an opportunity to … Continue reading →

Teriyaki Chicken Barley Salad; watchful owl

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 19, 2020 by KatieJune 20, 2020
Chicken Barley Salad

Now that we are free to travel more than 100 km from home we are heading to the Asian Supermarket. It’s summer and I am out of, or almost out of, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, teriyaki sauce, 2 kinds of soy sauce and lots of stuff I won’t know I need until I see it. We haven’t decided yet if we’re going to indulge in lunch there. We’re not sure … Continue reading →

Tuna Pasta Salad with Mustard Yogurt Dressing; Bonnie update

Thyme for Cooking Posted on September 11, 2019 by KatieOctober 20, 2019
Pasta Salad

One more pasta salad for summer. This is my personal favorite. Mon Mari doesn’t really like tuna salad of any sort. That means, of course, that I get it all for myself and can make it anyway I like. This is only vaguely similar to the Tuna Salad I grew up with. I added a fresh tomato…. My mother would have added celery. I used feta….. My mother would have … Continue reading →

Ham & Pea Pasta Salad; family reunions

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 12, 2019 by KatieOctober 22, 2019
Pasta Salad with Ham & Peas

I remember going to a family reunion in the 80’s….. Family reunions were a summer staple when I was growing up. There would be my mother’s mother’s family reunion, my mother’s father’s family reunion, my father’s mother’s…… You get the idea. Regardless of which ‘side’ was holding the reunion, it was always held in a park, there were always lots and lots of kids, and lots and lots of food. … Continue reading →

Beef, Chickpea and Feta Pasta Salad; walking a pig

Thyme for Cooking Posted on August 26, 2018 by KatieAugust 26, 2018
Beef & Chickpea Pasta Salad

One cannot live on summer squash alone. Sometimes, one just needs to be able to open a can and call it dinner…. sort of. Besides, chickpeas, and all the other legumes, are good for us and should be included in our diet periodically (she says, self-righteously). And easy… We like easy. The only real disadvantage of having a potager and eating what I grow is our diet can become rather … Continue reading →

Warm Pasta Salad with Shrimp and Avocados; seasons

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 30, 2017 by KatieJune 30, 2017
Warm Pasta Salad with Shrimp and Avocados

Last winter, at a dinner for 100+ people in the village, the chefs served a starter that was a half avocado filled with salad. We were all amazed that they managed to get 50+ avocados all ripe for the same day. I’ve rarely managed to pick out one ripe avocado. At the supermarket I noticed that, next to the pile of avocados for sale for a euro each, were packages … Continue reading →
