CSA Week 15 — Holy tomato.

The theme of this week’s CSA box was TOMATOES!  This is precisely why I decided to learn to love tomatoes.  If I didn’t like tomatoes, this box would’ve been totally wasted on me… and Mike would’ve be forced to eat more tomatoes than he really wanted. – Red Seedless Watermelon – Little orange peppers – [...]

Black Bean Turkey Burgers with Yummy on Top

I ran out of propane for my grill last week.  That really set the stage for how things were going to go.  No grilling.  Indoor cooking only.  Ok… Breathe.  We can do this. I love making turkey burgers.  Some people think they are difficult to make because you really have to add tons of flavor [...]

Adventures in cooking with my niece, Part II

Remember my niece?  The 7 year old teenager who made me do the Running Man?  She’s awesome.  She came to stay with Mike and me by herself last weekend and we had a blast – we even cooked. I don’t have kids yet, so Lily is really the first kid who I have watched grow [...]

CSA Week 14 — Quick quick quick!

Great box last week!  Now that I’m a tomato eater, these tomato-filled boxes are way more exciting.  Life has been quite hectic lately so my meals have been on the quick side.  Does quick have to mean unhealthy?  Less tasty?  Less fresh?  No way.  It just means quick. My favorite dish of the week (and [...]

Summer Rolls and Cold Sesame Noodles

I’m in love with Asian cuisine.  Specifically the Eastern and Southeastern Asian cuisine.  I love the complexity of the flavors — fresh and sweet and savory and spicy all in one single bite.  The more I try the cuisine, the more I love it.  I really feel like I get a taste for the culture [...]

Grilled Chile Rellenos

Chile rellenos are my favorite dish at Mexican restaurants.  Everyone does them a little different, but the essence is the same: pablano pepper stuffed with deliciousness.  While they seem to be mostly filled with cheese and/or chicken (and sometimes pork but I don’t eat pork so I don’t want to count those because I get [...]

CSA Week 13 — Good things happen here.

Yes, last week was week 13 of my CSA box.  Yes, I’ve missed a few weeks of telling you about my CSA boxes… but, per your suggestions, I’m back and more interesting than ever!  (Well, don’t get your hopes up too much.)  Every week I’m going to do a post on how I used the [...]

Keep the CSA box posts or ditch ‘em?

Last season I did a post every week on the contents of my CSA boxes.  I started doing it again this year and, as you probably noticed, they dropped off.  Here is an example of what I’m talking about: http://www.eatniks.com/2010/06/csa-year-2-week-5/  So, my faithful readers, do you want me to forget about those posts or return to [...]

Forget Georgia Peaches. Yeah, I said it.

If you have ever had the great pleasure of driving down I-85 South through South Carolina on your way to Georgia, you have seen the PEACH.  The big posterior-looking peach water tower in Gaffney, SC.  Complete with the little nubbin that you find at the bottom of peaches and a leaf on top.  It looks [...]

Tantalizing Tomato Tart

My Summer of Tomatoes is going very well.  I love them.  That’s weird, I know.  To clarify, I love the good ones.  The bad ones are dead to me.  This week we got these adorable baby heirloom tomatoes from the CSA.  They were all different colors and some were shaped sort of like bowling pins.  [...]
