Moroccan Couscous Salad; Bologna, part I

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 14, 2017 by KateNovember 28, 2020
Moroccan Couscous Salad

Couscous is very traditional Moroccan food. Whether or not they ever turn it into a salad I have no idea, but, as hot as it gets there, they should. I made this to go with a Moroccan Grilled Chicken – that recipe will be next. As usual, if you want it hotter add hot sauce or use hot paprika. For me, and hot weather, I love that couscous requires a … Continue reading →

Rice Pilaf and Rice Pilaf Salad; cook once / eat twice

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 25, 2017 by KateNovember 8, 2017
Rice Pilaf Salad

The idea of ‘cook once / eat twice’ is great for summer. It’s even better if you have a plan. The Rice Pilaf is served hot the first day and turned into a cold salad for the second. Plan on saving 1/3 to 1/2 of the Pilaf for use in the salad. I use Uncle Ben’s Brown Rice which looks like brown Basmati and cooks quickly, in about 15 minutes.  … Continue reading →

Lemon Orzo with Avocado and Herbs; Crime

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 21, 2017 by KateNovember 8, 2017
Lemon Orzo with Avocado and Fresh Herbs

I have always had mint in my herb garden. Well, after having mint in my actual herb garden I now grow it along the fence where it can be controlled by the lawn mower. It does have a tendency to spread rapidly and take over everything. I digress…. I have always grown mint, but other than tea or minty summer drinks I have rarely used it. I decided it’s time … Continue reading →

Polenta, Tomato, Mozzarella Salad; Italy

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 16, 2017 by KateJune 16, 2017
Polenta Salad

Did I mention that we’re going to Italy? I mean, really…. We can drive to Italy (and Spain and Germany and Slovenia and Austria and….) We ought to go more often. We decided we should go more often. It’s a long drive but there’s lots to see on the way and that’s all part of the fun. So now I’m dreaming of Italian food. It’s been 6 years since we’ve … Continue reading →

Pasta with Tomatoes, Chard and White Zucchini, canning, French-style

Thyme for Cooking Posted on September 8, 2013 by KateMay 10, 2017

The other night, as I was preparing the usual summer melange of tomatoes. chard and white zucchini, and wondering what new and innovative idea I could come up with I decided to hell with it…. Sometimes, one can stare at the day’s pickings from the garden and just not be the least bit inspired. Mon mari had already started his grilled potato (he’s in such a rut!) so I decided … Continue reading →

Green Bean and Tomato Pasta Salad

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 31, 2013 by KateMay 10, 2017

Aren’t these pretty? These are heirloom ‘climbing beans’ called Selma Zebra. I love green beans that aren’t green. They’re so much easier to find among all the green leaves. If someone could come up with bright red or orange beans it would be even nicer. I digress. Please don’t tell anyone…. but I like American Pole Beans better than the slim French Haricot Vert. Oh, the French beans make a nicer … Continue reading →

Warm Barley and Chard Salad, Bonnie and Guapa tell tales

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 30, 2013 by KateAugust 10, 2013

I haven’t done a chard post in a bit…. I’m guessing it’s been about 9 months since I picked the last of it. It’s been slow to start this yeas (as has everything else), but it’s finally getting big enough to pick. Could it be that summer is here? Warm Barley and Chard Salad Total time: 30 minutes Ingredients: 1/2 cup quick-cooking barley 1 cup chicken stock 8oz (240gr) chard, … Continue reading →
