I love me a good sandwich! But…too often is the time that I find myself dropping $10 or more on a sandwich only to be left thoroughly disappointed. I’m not saying that you have to stuff your sandwich full of goodies to make it a great sandwich, but I do want more than a slice…
Oven-Only Recipes
Set it, let it do its thing, and come back to something great. These recipes use the oven as the sole heat source — no stovetop juggling required. Sheet pans, baking dishes, a single rack. Simple setup, real results.
Stuffed Poblano Peppers
Making great food is all about sharing it with the ones you love. It’s about the whole experience of the meal, though…not just the food. So, of course, I love recipes that I can make in advance so that when my guests arrive, I have time to spend with them, rather than being stuck in…
Green Bean Tart
Puffy, crispy, cheesy, yum! This Green Bean Tart is a guaranteed crowd pleaser!
Honey Crunch Mac + Cheese
When I think of Macaroni and Cheese, my mind goes blank and I am overcome with an inner feeling of peace, happiness and joy! Ahhhhh! It is definitely one of those comfort foods for which I will enthusiastically always respond: Yes! Please! With the summer BBQ season coming into full swing, I thought this would…
Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies
In all the time I have been living on this Earth, I don’t think I have ever met a single person that has uttered the words, “No thank you, I don’t like cookies.” Not one. Have you? Combine that with the fact that I don’t think I have met an individual on God’s green Earth…
Easy Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas
I love enchiladas, but I never think to make them. For some reason, when I’m in the mood for Mexican food, I always default to tacos. In all fairness, tacos have their own day…Tuesday…so it’s only natural I would think of them first. Darn Taco marketers. Growing up, my mom would make more traditional Enchiladas,…
Thin is In Pizza!
Pizza Night will never be the same after you try this Super-Thin Pizza. I’ll be honest with you, I was always quite content with the traditional pizza that I had known as a kid. But when I tried this wafer thin and crispy pizza for the first time at Alto Palato restaurant here in Los Angeles,…
Balsamic Chicken Walnut Salad
I discovered this Balsamic Chicken Walnut Salad several years ago at little grocery store, El Rancho Market, in Solvang, California…just a hop, skip and a jump away from Santa Ynez (the greatest place on Earth IMHO). I loved it so much that my girlfriend called them to get me a shipment of it for my…
Mama Fucci’s Spinach Lasagne Roll-ups
This one is dedicated to Mama Fucci, my Mom. Hey, it’s her recipe…it’s the least I could do. Not to mention, she is the most amazing woman in the World…so that plays in to it too. And, she’s a fantastic cook to boot! This recipe of hers is one of my most favorites of all…
Big Fat Greek Frittata
Loukoumades, Moussaka, Spanakopita, Baklava, Maria Menounos, Dolmades…it just doesn’t stop. I just love the Greek culture…and the fact that they’re passionate people just like my Italian family. Translation: we’re loud and boisterous…and we love life! Because of that, there are endless gatherings of family and friends that somehow always seem to have incredible food at…
BBQ Chicken Pizza
This bold, rustic BBQ Chicken Pizza is easier to make than the cowboy campfire you have to build to cook it. So use an oven instead. And make sure it’s plenty hot! Yee Haw! This bold, rustic BBQ Chicken Pizza is easier to make than the cowboy campfire you have to build to cook…
Fretalian Onion Soup
My mom is French. My dad is Italian. I am a chaotic mixture of the both and love crossing these cultures in the dishes I create. Meet Fretalian Onion Soup…a progeny of the ever-so-loved French onion soup…made with an Italian twist. Thus…FRE-TALIAN. This is, hands down, one of my most favorite Tiny Kitchen recipes. It…
