If you are a self proclaimed (or otherwise proclaimed) foodie from the Omaha area, head over to Gastronomic Fight Club to place your vote for the Best-ter-est of Omaha Restaurants.  We all have an opinion about the food we eat when we eat away from our kitchens, now is the time to share that opinion.

Where’s Jamie?

Monday, September 28th, 2009

I just realized that it has been almost a month since I’ve posted a recipe. The month of September has passed by so quickly, and to be honest I haven’t really done a whole lot of actual cooking this month. Don’t worry I’m not losing it. The reason for my absence is that we moved [...]

Farmers Market: Broccoli

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

Broccoli was another ingredient in my box of produce from Black Sheep Farms. My husband loves broccoli. Currently my favorite way to enjoy broccoli is serving it roasted (directions at the bottom of the page). Since it is Father’s Day weekend, I am doing a special recipe for my husband. Broccoli Quiche. I made a [...]

Farmers Market: Beet Greens and Garlic Scapes

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

On Monday I picked up a box of produce from Black Sheep Farms. My summer “job” is to turn their tasty produce into a tasty dinner. It has been fun to look at food from a different angle; I want to provide recipes that will use the food in a way you may not have [...]

Farmers Market: Tom Thumb Lettuce

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Last week we ventured out to the farmers market where we received some tasty produce from Black Sheep Farms. We came home with a sack filled with baby bok choy, heirloom radishes, and Tom Thumb lettuce. I made a warm spring salad with grilled baby bok choy and radishes using a recipe I found at [...]

Farmers Market: Baby Bok Choy

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

It was a beautiful sunshiney day on Saturday. We loaded up the girls and set out to visit the farmers market. We stopped by the booth of Brian and Kelly of Black Sheep Farms, where we received Tom Thumb lettuce, some baby bok choy, and beautiful heirloom radishes. My goal is to turn their produce [...]

A Local CSA: Black Sheep Farms

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

You may be wondering what a CSA is; it stands for community supported agriculture. It is a way for you to develop a relationship with the farmer, the land, and the produce, with the end result being farm fresh fruits and veggies. You make a financial commitment and a small time commitment to the farm, [...]

Omaha Blogroll

Sunday, January 11th, 2009

Food bloggers are everywhere. I subscribe to over 60 food blogs via my Google Reader. I was surprised when I saw that number, sixty is a large number, but I know that I am just one of thousands (hundreds of thousands) who blog about food. Recently my husband and I moved to Omaha, NE and [...]

Vampires Beware!

Monday, May 26th, 2008

Roasted garlic. So easy. So simple. So delicious! The first time I enjoyed roasted garlic was when my husband and I were dining in Omaha’s Old Market. We ordered an antipasto appetizer off the menu at Vivace, which came with an assortment of cheeses, salty Italian meats, crusty bread and roasted garlic. Neither one of [...]
