2 plum tomatoes, cored and cut crosswise into thin slices
2 tsp. grated Parmesan cheese
Pat fish dry and cut into 2 serving [...]

Kale?!?
This green, leafy vegetable appears at the top of the list for nutrient density – calorie for calorie, it packs the more nutrients than nearly any other food you can buy. As part of my project to eat less of better foods, I decided to try it – but I don’t know how to eat [...]

A screenshot from the iPhone app ‘Lose It’
I started what I’m calling the Food Monotony Project on Tuesday, Jan 19, and since that day I’ve eaten mostly to plan. The thinking behind this goes back to a blog post I wrote in July of 2008. I forget a lot of my posts, but the points [...]

Looking back can be interesting, if kept to a minimum, so I thought it might be interesting to see what were the most popular posts of 2009. Here goes.

Julia Child’s kitchen utensils – not mine.
The following recipe might perhaps serve as a warning, rather than a suggestion.
As mentioned in my previous post, I wanted to make a low carb stuffing, and had planned to use low carb bread as a substitute for regular bread. Then it came to me: pork rinds! They would [...]

Where did they get these stiffs? This picture is so phony as to be unreal. How long are they going to sit there without food on their plates? Why is the woman looking off in the distance like that – is she about to have a seizure? Why does the room they are in remind [...]

I Search for ‘Simple’ and Got This
Simplicity is the name of the game here. It’s meant to be a recipe for when you don’t want to cook.

I purchased some wild caught cod and wanted to make my own sauce, which I typically make from mayo, parm cheese, and butter – but I had already made the Ricotta Cranberry Cream concoction and didn’t feel like pulling out another bowl.
I had bought Bertolli Alfredo sauce for my kids – it was sitting on [...]

UPDATE: I made it 11/15 and added the picture. I also fixed the recipe – forgot the cinnamon.

This is NOT a picture of the recipe below, but it looks pretty good.
