high off the hog…

…Well, this is not to say we’re having anything fancy, but it was one of the rare occasions I went to an organic butcher shop to get a nice cut of meat! Pork roast to be exact, so in fact we are eating high off the hog for this meal! I was recently traveling for…

I love love soups like these! I haven’t even had breakfast, but I want this soup!

Thank you! It turned out pretty tasty, and was very good left over! These types of soups are great because you can add what you have on hand, and make it as spicy as you want easily. There is nothing wrong with soup for breakfast I don’t think:) Enjoy!

In love with this recipe! Never had tortilla soup with pork but going to try it tonight!

Hi Jen, Thank you for visiting! I hope you like it, and it turns out tasty! I find the pork roasted version is more work, but I love the flavor it takes on in this soup!

Looks great! I’ve been craving chicken tortilla soup and I have frozen carnitas in the freezer – thanks for the stunning recipe!

corn-fed

Yes we are! Fresh summer white corn in fact, and LOTS of it. Though warmer weather prevails, this doesn’t mean we can’t make one sweet pot of corn chowder, I rustled up some fresh ears and got a serious shucking session in motion! Sweet white corn is one of my favorites to add to salads,…

This looks so good! I love corn chowder. Will definitely be trying this :)

Janet

This was very tasty. It didn’t really get thick like a chowder for me, but was still very good. I’m going to freeze some fresh Jersey corn to make this again in the winter. Thanks for the recipe!

I made this last night with the following alterations: 1/4 c extra half and half, 6 T flour (to thicken up), no celery. It was sooo goooood! I like thicker corn chowder, that’s why I added the flour. Everyone loved it!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for trying it out:) Mine was not extremely thick, between a soup and thick chowder, but it did thicken a lot due to the breakdown of the starch from the potato, because I left it on stove to simmer for so long, oops! Definitely, adding flour into the roux is a great way to make it thicker to your preference! You could also add more potato. I am wanting to make another batch while the corn is still so sweet!! thanks again for visiting!

summer dressed

Farewell Spring, because I am ready for summer and so is my salad. We’re going to call-on warm weather ingredients like fresh, farmer’s market strawberries, spinach, sweet corn, cucumbers and beets for one perfect bowl of salad goodness. We’ll dress to the occasion with a homemade poppyseed balsamic dressing. Who wants to slave over the…

Summer is really here…It is all about light, fun and easy recipes. Everyone’s busy with a sunny day picnic, a trip to the beach. Gee! I have to make sure the recipes I have are all summer-y. This would be a great addition. Thanks!

Danielle

As someone who makes this salad weekly during strawberry season (thanks to Lyndsy sharing the recipe), I can vouch for this one. And the dressing is so good you’ll want to drink it sans lettuce.

Thanks Dani & MyFudo! This salad really is a go-to amidst summertime, and I think if there is access to sweet & ripe strawberries, and really good summer, sweet corn, there is no reason not to bust this one pre-meal, or as a meal, or maybe more complete with a grilled balsamic checkin breast… or a fillet of salmon. And so on… I must be hungry! :) Balsamic and strawberries just seem to ‘work.’

Ocho de Mayo

Did you get your fill of Mexican food goodness on Cinco? I guess two baskets of chips means I was successful…. Though it’s already the 8th, there is nothing wrong with having more of a good thing! That brings today, now deemed Ocho de Mayo, and a deliciously healthy Enchilada Stack. I love enchiladas, but sometimes it’s nice…

Wow, it’s strange because I tried making a ‘Mexican lasagna’ the other day – using tortillas instead of lasagna and adding refried beans into the tomato sauce (I’m veggie so I don’t use meat in my lasagnas).
Shame, I thought I was being original haha
Awesome recipe though ;)
