Hold the Meat – What to eat when the zombies are after you

Last week, before my baby decided to snack on dog food, I was having a difficult time coming up with inspiration for my Hold the Meat column. So I took it to our esteemed writers and asked for ideas. Our resident redneck, Jeff, played to my love of zombies and offered this up: The Zombie […]

A very unauthentic, but seriously delicious Pasta e Fagioli

I love soup. When made well, it’s probably just about as perfect of a food as you can get. There may be a couple of meals out there that I like more, but nothing that I could eat every day for a week and not either get sick of or feel guilty about eating. This […]

Gazpacho Mary – Blood Mary Countdown

The great thing about making a Gazpacho Mary is that most of the ingredients in Gazpacho can be found in your Bloody Mary mix or your vodka: hot sauce? In the mix. Pepper? In the vodka, if you choose Absolut PEPPAR. All you have to do is blend a cucumber into the mix and choose […]
