A Moveable Feast: February 2008
http://imaginedeating.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
A place to share gastronomic indulgences. Monday, February 18, 2008. BAKED PASTA WITH TOMATOES, SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS AND PROSCIUTTO. The following recipe is the reason that I started a food blog. I made this many, many years ago then promptly lost the recipe. It took me about 15 years to find it again. I first found this in a 1991 issue of Gourmet magazine. I post it now so as never to lose it again. I know it looks long and complicated but it really is so easy, and just a little time consuming. In a large...

A Moveable Feast: April 2009

A place to share gastronomic indulgences. Tuesday, April 21, 2009. ICE CREAM, ICE CREAM.we all scream for ice cream. I have finally been gifted an ice cream maker. I've wanted one for years now and was finally able to acquire one that was given to my son for Christmas. Fortunately for me he was unable to pack it for his move to Costa Rica. My first attempt was at a low-calorie vanilla ice cream. Using Splenda instead of "real" sugar did not produce the best tasting result. 6 extra-large egg yolks. Spring...

A place to share gastronomic indulgences. Tuesday, July 13, 2010. Summer herb-inspired deck party with friends. My girlfriends are the best. And getting together on a summer night is one of my favorite things to do. I dreamed up this menu while weeding my herb garden. I was determined to have every dish contain at least one herb out of my garden. My pretty summer table with hydrangeas from the garden. To accompany the main course I made very colorful and spicy pepper ratatouille. Here I will share the fi...

A Moveable Feast: January 2011
http://imaginedeating.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
A place to share gastronomic indulgences. Saturday, January 22, 2011. Veggies and more veggies. Now that the holidays are over I need to try and curb the obnoxious eating that has been taking place. More vegetables are definitely in the picture. This is a recipe that I made as a side dish this past Thanksgiving. It's easy and very flavorful due to the roasting of the shallots and fennel. Haricot Verts with roasted fennel and shallots. Nonstick vegetable oil spray. 2 large fresh fennel bulbs, trimmed.

A Moveable Feast: August 2010

A place to share gastronomic indulgences. Sunday, August 29, 2010. More and More Ice Cream. I may have mentioned last year that my son was not able to take his new ice cream maker back to Costa Rica with him. Thank God for baggage limits. So, the ice cream making continues. The first recipe was made for my girl's night deck party this past spring. The theme was herb-inspired so we concluded the meal with lemon mint ice cream. If you like lemon you will love this. LEMON ICE CREAM WITH MINT. 2 C light cream.

A Moveable Feast: Lemon chicken and Ratatouille
http://imaginedeating.blogspot.com/2010/08/lemon-chicken.html
A place to share gastronomic indulgences. Thursday, August 19, 2010. Lemon chicken and Ratatouille. The main course for my girl's herb-inspired dinner was a refreshing lemon chicken from The Silver Palate cookbook. Easy peasy to make and better yet, it can be served hot, cold, or room temperature. How great is that! Along with Kathy's polenta I served this with a yummy, colorful pepper ratatouille. Also from the Silver Palate. Bright and colorful this whole meal pleased the eyes as well as the palate.

http://imaginedeating.blogspot.com/2010/02/shrimp-and-grits-with-roasted-red.html
A place to share gastronomic indulgences. Thursday, February 11, 2010. Shrimp and Grits with Roasted Red Pepper. We've had about 4 1/2 feet of snow here this past week. This is the perfect weather to spend time in the kitchen and create lots of comfort food. I tried this dish this week to share with all of our snowbound neighbors. I've never made grits before but this has got to be the easiest and most delicious recipe. This was first published in Bon Appetit magazine. Yield: Makes 6 main-course servings.
