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

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 25, 2017 by KatieNovember 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 →

Main Course Shrimp Salad

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 22, 2016 by KatieJune 22, 2016

I bought more shrimp than I needed for our dinner party. So I made another salad. Did I mention we’re eating a lot of salads A lot of them are old favorites – Taco Salad. Barbecue Chicken Salad, Chicken Caesar Salad… I’m only posting the new ones…. Yes, I know… The food police would be upset with me. One is not supposed to put cheese with seafood, and the bacon … Continue reading →

Asparagus and Spinach Salad with Ham and Goat Cheese, Spring

Thyme for Cooking Posted on April 20, 2014 by KatieApril 21, 2014

This is a spring salad: locally grown, fresh asparagus, spinach and herbs from my garden. I had to move my herb garden two years ago, thanks to some puppies that came to live with us. I didn’t want it too far away from the kitchen but it needed to be away from both puppies and bunnies. The spot I chose was a little patch of flat land on the side … Continue reading →

Barley Salad with Red and Green Peppers; too much of a good thing? NON!

Thyme for Cooking Posted on May 15, 2013 by KatieAugust 10, 2013

While I’m waiting for my lettuce and spinach to get large enough to pick we have to be happy with other types of salad. Fortunately, we were more than happy with this one. One of the best finds since we’ve moved here is quick-cooking barley.  It cooks in just 15 minutes and is just as hearty and chewy as the kind that takes 45. I’ve graduated it from soups and … Continue reading →

Warm Pasta Salad with Chicken, Spinach, Squash and Basil; a wee rant on diets

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 27, 2012 by KatieAugust 11, 2013

This time of year, with the potager in transition, we have a lot of combination dishes. Chard with spinach; spinach with squash, chard with squash…. All of them together…. It's a good thing we like vegetables. And I feel so very virtuous out gathering our food for dinner…. (said tongue in cheek – see rant on Paleo Diet below) Warm Pasta Salad with Chicken, Spinach, Squash and Basil Preparation and … Continue reading →

Ham, Egg and Spinach Salad

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 11, 2012 by KatieAugust 11, 2013

The spring garden is being slowly replaced by the summer garden. We ate the first of the summer squashes and I pulled up some of the lettuce and all of the spinach before we left for Spain. Most of the spinach was turned into soup. I saved enough of the tender leaves to have one last spinach salad. Bacon, Egg and Spinach Salad Preparation and cooking time:  20 minutes      … Continue reading →

Chicken Salad with Roasted Potatoes, Shallots and Onions

Thyme for Cooking Posted on June 27, 2012 by KatieMay 29, 2019

I’ve served this salad often, always to rave reviews. The recipe is for two (as we are two) but if you add another chicken breast, a bit more potato, a few more shallots and a some more lettuce, it easily serves 4 for a light lunch… With a bit of bread and a nice dessert. One really should have a nice rosé with it…  And be sitting at a table … Continue reading →
