Labor Day Chicken & Chorizo Tacos with Garlic Herb Sabra Hummus Spread
I'm over summer. Have been for about 3 weeks. It's too hot and too humid, everywhere. It's standard sexy appeal as been far absent. I'm all for fall coming and staying for an extended visit simply to make up for the days of searing sun leaving me depleted ...

A Good Blackened Salmon Sandwich…That Could be Umami
Some staple foods and ingredients highly benefit from their simple integrity and beg minimal altering. Salmon is one of those foods. It's one of the fattiest fishes you can get, rendering it succulent and flavorful. Sometimes, all you really need is salt, ...

National Hummus Day with Sabra: Pulled Mole Roasted Chicken & Garlic Hummus Bowl
I've not counted how many culinary holidays exist, but few stand out and are marked on my calendars. Espresso day. Brownie day. Ice cream day. And national hummus day, of course. Among all of the ones we could care enough to celebrate, these are the ones t...

Pan Seared Cauliflower Steak & Couscous Salad {And a TV Segment}
Spring has finally sprung and we couldn't be more indulgent in all things raw, fresh, clean and lighter. Winter wasn't so bad but the few dips into the teens, with sweeping winds, and a wintery white kiss of a fantastic blizzard, invited good and soulful e...

The Easiest Beef Paella Recipe Ever
Sunday is National Paella Day! Yasssss! Oh my goodness. I can not tell you how much I love that traditional, super moist and robust rice pan, hailing from Valencia, Spain. The first time I had a legit one was in 1997 during a family trip to Andalucia. We were ...

A Story About Cuban Food
I was at the Cuban Interest Office in Washington, just a few miles from where I live, speaking through a locked iron fence, asking the familiar guard the status of my Cuban passport. I applied for it 3 months prior and should have received it 6 weeks earli...

Homemade Pasta and Browned Butter Sage and Mushroom Ravioli
I've always loved ravioli. It's probably my favorite pasta. Only thing - I can't eat it a lot. I gain weight just looking at it. There's not enough water or espresso to counterbalance and cancel out the amount of carbs and starch I'd prefer to intake on a ...

7 Hearty Soups to Weather out Blizzard Jonas – The Snowstorm of the Century
Washington, D.C. and surrounding areas, exactly where I live, are about to be pounded, stomped on, and hammered with what the forecasters are saying is the hardest snow hit since the 20s. Okay. That's quite impressive. Only thing, they've put the fear of the e...

The Final Say… A Modern Cocktail to Leave You Speechless
The spirits culture is not one in which I'm well-versed. I used to be a bit more invested in bar knowledge. If you saw my personal stash, you'd think I was a lush. I have top rail bottles that put some bona fide mixologists to shame. Let's just say my work...
