Courgette Frittata

The last time I made a frittata, it tasted wonderful but it was a textural disaster. (Read all about it here: ginger and shiitake omelette.) This courgette (zucchini) and ricotta frittata was on the roster for our Wednesday with Donna Hay blogging grou…

Pepper Jack Stuffed Poblano Peppers

Black beans and pepper jack cheese make a hearty, delicious filling for these stuffed poblano peppers. And if you have leftovers, well that’s perfect, because they’re even better the second time around!

Saffron Yellow Pepper Soup

One of the things I’ve been working on lately is a little booklet related to QUITOKEETO. I think of it as a small ‘thank you’ to all of the people on our mailing list, many of whom we’ve been lucky to meet or email with over the past two years. It’s a summer inspiration board in booklet form filled with recipes, photographs, sights, & sounds. Just a little something to share, filled with things we’re excited about, free to download. We even dusted off the old Olivetti Valentine to type the recipes. The final touches should come together in the coming days, and if you’re on the mailing list, you’ll get the link as soon as it’s ready. In the meantime, here is one of the recipes from it. A summery saffron soup enjoyable hot or cold, topped with crumbled feta and crushed green pistachios. Enjoy! -Heidi

A few in-process shots out on the dining room table.

The soup is simple, and tasty. The recipe calls for yellow peppers, but orange peppers are sometimes more readily available, and they’ll work beautifully as well. -h

Lately: Intermission

I’ve really been on a roll with the healthy eating and weight loss. I stepped on the scale and had lost 2.5 pounds! Karen just had a minor surgery to repair a hernia and she spent a few days recovering at our house. Although we cooked healthy Cook Smarts dinners, there was still a feeling […]

Shredded Egg Salad

I bought some special eggs the other day. I mean, there are special eggs, and there are special eggs. I’m talking about the kind of eggs some people might feel compelled to roll their eyes at. But I had to buy them. Try them. Bring them home with me….

Recipe: Bean and Tahini Salad (vegan)

I may have no fancy for leafy green salads at the moment, but that doesn’t mean I’m not getting those veggies in! I came up with this salad rather randomly when I needed an easy packed lunch to take to an event. I know that we might not yet be in proper salad weather yet, […]

Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Chicken cutlets stuffed with spinach, feta and ricotta, then breaded and baked to perfection!
I love making stuffed chicken breast as many as you probably figured out by now. You can stuff chicken with just about anything, and leftovers can be frozen and reheated for your very own homemade frozen meals which are so much better than store bought.

I first experimented with this spinach-feta version back in 2010, and we loved it. My photos were pretty awful back then, so today I decided to make them over! I also changed the recipe slightly to make them easier. Anyone can make these, there are no toothpicks required and the prep time is fairly quick. I served this with a great big salad on the side, but you can also serve it with couscous, rice or quinoa.

You may also like some of my other stuffed chicken breast recipes, Buffalo Stuffed Chicken Breasts, Roasted Red Pepper and Prosciutto, Zucchini and Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken, Chicken Cordon Bleu, Prosciutto and Cheese, and my husband’s favorite, Chicken Rollatini with Spinach alla Parmigiana.

Healthy Black Bean Chilaquiles

Chilaquiles is a classic Mexican casserole dish. It’s traditionally made with fried tortilla chips topped with a spicy tomato sauce, tons of cheese, and eggs. Delicious? Yes. Great for your waistline? Not so much. I figured there had to be a way to lighten up this traditional recipe, while still keeping all the flavor of […]
