feisty & fresh: Megzican's Black Bean Soup
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2013/09/black-bean-soup.html
Wednesday, September 11, 2013. Megzican's Black Bean Soup. While it wasn't too long since I was in Mexico for the first time (in May), I miss it already. The quest for the perfect fish tacos brought us to a lot of great digs all around Tulum. We had our fair share of ceviche, calamare, camarones, tacos, empanadas, not to mention salsa. A lot of very spicy salsa. Easy Black Bean Soup. 2 cans or 1 cup dried black beans, soaked and cooked. 1-2 pork sausages, chopped. 1 large onion, chopped. 1 carrot, chopped.

feisty & fresh: February 2011
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 13, 2011. Dahl Mahkani - Black Lentil Curry. This is one of A. S specialties, and I don't know his secret recipe, so I'll have to be patient with him to be a guest blogger here, as he's busy now with his own blog, coming soon on Facebook. Sunday, February 13, 2011. Links to this post. Saturday, February 12, 2011. And found just what I was looking for. Said this was restaurant quality, so I'm adding it to my list of favorites, and I'll never wonder what to do with asparagus again :).

feisty & fresh: Coconut & Peanut Chicken with Avocado Salad
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2013/07/coconut-peanut-chicken-with-avocado.html
Monday, July 22, 2013. Coconut and Peanut Chicken with Avocado Salad. Though I have a million excuses why I haven't been blogging lately, I won't bore you with any of them. In general, I don't like excuses anyway. They're as bad a habit as starting out everything with an apology. Therefore, I won't make either. What I will make, however, is some fully roasted chicken, with a thai inspired sauce that combines some of my favorite things: spicy chili, coconut and PEANUT BUTTER! 1/4 cup of vegetable oil.

feisty & fresh: Deviled Eggs
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2011/06/deviled-eggs.html
Friday, June 24, 2011. This super budget-friendly appetizer is easy to make and fits in well for get togethers and occassions. I've made several batches of these in the last couple months, once for a big dinner we hosted for Easter and another time for a Partylite party at a friend's from school. Both times they went over really well, and were gone in a flash. Good to make more than you think you'll need. Then, you will squeeze the mixture into the egg white halves for the final product. Easy. I ...An Am...

feisty & fresh: Chicken Chorizon Paella
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2011/06/chicken-chorizon-paella.html
Tuesday, June 21, 2011. Any time I've ever made paella in the past, I've felt slightly lacking in authenticity due to the lack of chorizo in the recipe. Though I was not eating meat back then, and I have made paella with soy 'chorizo', the taste was obviously lacking something. I keep comparing my paella to that of the well known paella at Taberna del Alabardero. We had a great time and ate out and enjoyed parks and seaside views and I didn't leave without buying some chorizo to take home with me. The re...

feisty & fresh: Thai Marinated Beef with Mixed Greens and Mango Salad
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2011/04/thai-marinated-beef-with-mixed-greens.html
Friday, April 15, 2011. Thai Marinated Beef with Mixed Greens and Mango Salad. Ever since I got the cookbook 'Travels with Thai Food' by the authors of 'Spirit House,' I've been wanting to try new combinations and recipes (Thanks Ms. P. I rarely cook by the book, but when entering unchartered territory, such as this, it's really handy to have such a comprehensive guide (and such lovely pictures). After pouring over the book with A.

feisty & fresh: July 2011
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 1, 2011. Last night, the restaurant where I am currently working full time, Chez Dominique,. Had a lot of leftover brioche bread. What a pity, so sad to waste such a delicately perfected creation. So of course I had to take some home with me and it wasn't difficult to find some delicious ways to use it straight away for breakfast the next morning. Brioche is a french bread and the famous 'cake' referred to when Marie Antoinette declared 'Qu'ils mangent de la brioche. I toasted these lightly ...

feisty & fresh: Chorizo and Shrimp Stew
http://feistyandfresh.blogspot.com/2011/06/chorizo-and-shrimp-stew.html
Monday, June 27, 2011. Chorizo and Shrimp Stew. I love when I have an unusual ingredient that I want to make into something new and different (to me at least). After I'd made the traditional paella from the chorizo I brought home with me from Barcelona, I still had some left and wanted something delicious to make with it. Among the many good ideas was this stew, which I adapted from foodandwine.com. Serve with fresh slices of avocado and enjoy. Monday, June 27, 2011. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
