Stuffed Mushrooms with Feta, Greek Olives and Couscous

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on November 14, 2018 by Katie ZellerNovember 14, 2018
Stuffed Mushrooms

The first time I made stuffed mushrooms they were filled with bacon and cream cheese.

That was the way I made them the 2nd through gazillionth time, too.

Why mess with a good thing, right?

Well, when one moves to a place that doesn’t have … Continue reading.....

Stuffed Chard Leaves with Beef and Couscous, Secret Recipe Club

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on August 1, 2016 by Katie ZellerJuly 31, 2016
Stuffed Chard Leaves

The dog days of summer are upon us – and so is the August edition of the Secret Recipe Club.

I think that means our recipes should be lazy rather than ambitious… So we can spend long, warm evenings star-gazing, of course..

This month … Continue reading.....

Vegetable Couscous; busy days

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on June 24, 2015 by Katie ZellerJune 24, 2015

As you all know I usually cook for two.

It took me some time to get cooking for two sorted out….

Even after several years of careful measuring followed by eating and realizing that the serving size was correct it still looks, well, rather pathetic … Continue reading.....

Shrimp Couscous; truth from travel

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on June 5, 2015 by Katie ZellerOctober 21, 2017

I used to love spending hours in the kitchen, making complicated dishes with lots of ingredients.

Lately I’ve been leaning more towards fast food.

This was fast and good…

All you need is a nice spinach salad to round out your dinner.

Shrimp Couscous

Chicken Tagine with Apricots and Almonds, packing up Christmas

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on January 5, 2014 by Katie ZellerJanuary 5, 2014

After I made the Chicken Korma I had leftover apricots.

That happens often (always) when one is cooking for two and buys a special ingredient.

With something like dried apricots, that leaves two choices: snack on them or make another dish using apricots.

Being a … Continue reading.....

Summer Couscous, eating real food rant

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on August 29, 2013 by Katie ZellerMay 10, 2017

To be honest, I’m a relatively recent convert to couscous.

Couscous is not a grain but a tiny semolina ‘pasta’. 

The first time I ate it, the couscous was dry and pretty tasteless.

When I started cooking more Moroccan-style food I decided to see what … Continue reading.....

Stuffed Baby Acorn Squash

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on November 21, 2012 by Katie ZellerAugust 10, 2013

The last few acorn squash that formed were small, about the size of a baseball.

Unlike zucchini, which can be picked and used very young, winter squash have to stay on the vine until fully ripe.

Unlike zucchini, they don't keep on growing until they're … Continue reading.....

Mushrooms Stuffed with Couscous and Feta

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on October 21, 2012 by Katie ZellerNovember 14, 2018

My preferred mushroom for stuffing is the brown cremini.  I think it has more flavor than the white button mushrooms.

For other dishes I take advantage of all the wonderful field and forest mushrooms available this time of year (see below), but one needs a … Continue reading.....

The quest for delicious couscous recipes continues….

Fortunately, it’s a fun quest.

Couscous is great for summer – it requires no cooking, just hot stock.

Dress it up with anything that suits your fancy!

Couscous Feta Pilaf

Couscous with Browned Red Onions

Thyme for Cooking, Blog Posted on April 23, 2012 by Katie ZellerOctober 12, 2017

I never made couscous when I lived in the US but it’s a very popular side dish here…. As well as the traditional accompaniment to Moroccan foods, also very popular here.

Mon mari’s discerning opinion was that it was ‘dry and tasteless’.

Naturally, I … Continue reading.....
