Bruschetta is so simple to make, I almost feel a little silly for blogging about it….almost. But with all this warm and sunny Spring weather we have had this year here in Virginia ,I feel inspired to share my Bruschetta with you. It’s a small morsel loaded with flavor. Between the juicy fresh tomatoes, fragrant [...]

Shrimp and Crab Salad
Posted in Appetizers, Lunch, New Years Eve, Salad, Seafood, tagged appetizer, crab, dill, Lunch, old bay, party, salad, seafood, shrimp on March 19, 2012 | 4 Comments »
I have been looking for a really good seafood salad and I think I finally found it. This recipe is super delicious! I kept the Old Bay down to just a scant 1/2 teaspoon because often times I think the Old Bay is just too overpowering and it ends up ruining the gently seafood flavors. [...]
Hardy Carrot Soup With Tomatoes
Posted in Comfort food, Lunch, Main course, Soup, tagged carrot, pesto, soup, stock, tomato, Virginia Beach on February 27, 2012 | 11 Comments »
What’s up with the weather in Virginia Beach? So far, winter has been unusually mild and the most snow we have gotten is a few flurries which literally melted within a couple of hours. It never ceases to amaze me how the weather here changes all the time. It’s been fluctuating between 70 degrees and [...]
Chicken and Roasted Red Pepper Quisadilla
Posted in Appetizers, Chicken, Lunch, Quick and Easy, tagged cabot, cheese, chicken, feta, quisadilla, roasted red pepper, tortillas on January 16, 2012 | 2 Comments »
I love a really good Chicken Quisadilla and when you make them yourself at home, your completely in charge of the outcome. I don’t particularly like a lot of cheese on my food and when asking for light cheese in a restaurant, it still comes loaded on. In this write-up I have not written any amounts, simply just make it [...]
Leverpostej – Danish Liver Pate
Posted in Danish, Lunch, Main course, Sauce, tagged bechamel, Danish, dansk, leverpostej, liver, liver pate, Lunch, pate, rugbrød, sandwich, sauce on January 2, 2012 | 16 Comments »
Making Danish Liver Pate probably got me more excited than any other recipe I have had the pleasure to blog about. You absolutely must experience a warm, home-made Liver Pate. Fresh out of the oven, served with fried mushrooms and bacon or topped with some wonderful pickled beets. This is actually the first time I [...]
Kaja’s Corn Salad (borrowed from Henriette)
Posted in Appetizers, Lunch, Quick and Easy, Salad, Side dish, tagged bell pepper, corn, cranberries, cucumber, peas, pine nuts, raspberry, salad, vinaigrette on September 12, 2011 | 3 Comments »
My Danish friend Kaja served this wonderful salad for our last get-together, which she in turn got from my other Danish friend Henriette. It is simple, refreshing and good for you. Kaja served it with walnuts which was very delicious but my favorite kinda nut is pine nuts and so I choose pine for this presentation. The raspberry walnut [...]

I was searching high and low for something to make for dinner when I came across this recipe. It’s a wonderful Tortellini soup that is so quick and easy to make, perfect for when you get home from work and you’re too tired to make anything that requires any complex thinking. The ingredients are simple and you probably already have most of [...]
Roasted Tomato Basil Soup
Posted in Appetizers, Comfort food, Lunch, Main course, Soup, tagged basil, roasted tomatoes, soup, tomato on September 13, 2010 | 17 Comments »
If you read my blog on a regular basis you’ll know that I am a bit of a tomato freak. So it makes sense that tomato soup is one of my favorite types of soup. In my humble opinion, there is nothing more soothing than a bowl of warm and slightly peppery tomato soup served with a slice of [...]
Hummus with Roasted Red Bell Pepper
Posted in Appetizers, Dip, Lunch, tagged bell pepper, chickpeas, dakota fanning, garbanzo beans, hummus, roasted red bell pepper, tahini, tom cruise, war of the worlds on August 15, 2010 | 18 Comments »
My first encounter with Hummus was when I watched the movie War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning. Tom Cruise picks up a wedge of pita and dips it into the Hummus, starts to eat it and then puts on an expression of disgust and horrid. The conversation goes something [...]
