I was so thrilled when Lindsay asked me to guest post for her site! You see, I’m kind of a huge fan of her. As a blog reader, I’ve followed Love & Olive Oil for years before I dreamed of starting my own site. Professionally, she re-designed my website and pretty much went above and beyond anything I could have imagined in my wildest dreams. Personally, I’ve now spent time with her twice, at both Food Blog Forum and BlogHer Food....
Suitable for gluten free and vegetarian diets. Post includes Weight Watchers points. The sweet corn is bright and fresh, and whether you prefer grilled corn, boiled corn, or roasted corn, fresh corn on the cob is hard to beat. But, what happens when you don’t have fresh corn? The good news is that you don’t have to quit enjoying corn on the cob just because summer is over. It is so easy to freeze corn on the cob for later use and enjoy it all year long....

Suitable for Low Carb and Gluten-Free diets. Post includes Weight Watchers points. What is Barbacoa Beef? Barbacoa is actually a cooking process that can be used with just about any cut of meat but is most often made with beef, lamb, or goat. Originating in Mexico and Central America to make tough cuts of meat more palatable, Barbacoa was traditionally slow-cooked in a vessel place in a hole in the ground....
Cucidati or Italian Fig Cookies is the one standing tradition remaining in our family. My aunt makes up a large batch of dough and fig filling every year. We all come together to help her bake the hundreds and hundreds of cookies. It’s usually a fun adventure! I have consulted with her for years about how to cut down the recipe so most home bakers wouldn’t run to the hills in fear of the sheer size of her recipe....
Blueberry ice cream is one thing (believe me, it’s delicious!) But roasted blueberry ice cream? That’s on an entirely different wavelength altogether. There’s something about the act of roasting berries that intensifies every aspect: flavor, sweetness, aroma, color. To make it even more interesting I tossed these berries with a bit of balsamic vinegar and muscovado sugar (my latest obsession thanks to Shauna), and also replaced some of the granulated sugar with muscovado in the ice cream base; just two tablespoons of which gives the final ice cream a light caramel color and a subtle molasses flavor that only enhances the flavor of the blueberries....

Another recipe discovered while ogling the images over at tastespotting… If only potato pancakes didn’t take so long to cook, I’d make them every week. Every day even! But seeing as the act of cooking dozens of hockey-puck size pats of potatoes takes upwards of an hour and a half, we’ll save these for the rare occasions when we make the conscious decision to stand in the kitchen for that long....
Tom Kha Gai is a lot of things: creamy, tangy, sour, sweet… but most of all, just plain delicious. This traditional Thai soup features a coconut milk-based broth that is infused with flavorful roots, herbs, and spicy chilies. This recipe will get you pretty darn close to what you might enjoy in a restaurant. And it’s all made in a slow cooker. The first time we made this soup, we did so on the stove-top, which required a good amount of attention....
Life is good. You know how I know? The biggest dilemma I was faced with this past weekend was what to do with the rest of my coveted strawberries. Two batches of jam, three smoothies, and four bellyaches later, there were only a handful of less-than-perfect berries left, crying to be used. Rather then send them into the deep freeze for later use, I threw them into a batch of these delicious-sounding scones....
It happened again. I had one of my cupcake visions. And I couldn’t shake it. I kept thinking about these cupcakes, constantly, even dreamed about them multiple times. And much like the last ones, the only way to stop obsessing was to hunker down and make them. So I did. What’s odd about this is I don’t usually like lemon-flavored sweets. Don’t let any fruit get in the way of my chocolate is my usual sentiment....

It usually contains meat, seafood, vegetables, and rice. You can also cook it all in one pot!...
No, not morbid cookies, silly! Morbidi meaning “soft” in Italian. And these almond-and-egg-white cookies are just that: soft. Nothing like the crunchy little cookies we typically think of as amaretti. I first encountered these cookies two and half years ago in Italy, where Nellie, a close family friend and Italian cooking mentor, brought a bag from her hometown outside of Genoa. It was all I could do to not eat that entire bag....
