BLT Deviled Eggs

September 21, 2015 2 Comments

This weekend I learned that I’ve been making hard-boiled eggs wrong my whole life. Did you know that you’re not supposed to just boil the crap out of eggs for 15 straight minutes? News to me! Apparently, the proper way to do it is to place your raw eggs in a pot with room temperature water,…read more »

Sunday Brunch: Eggs Benedict Burger

May 18, 2015 6 Comments

I don’t know about you guys, but the dilemma that I constantly face when we go out to brunch is whether I should order something breakfast-y or something lunch-y. Usually, the struggle involves deciding between some sort of eggs benedict (smoked salmon, crab, spinach, pork belly…mmmm) and whatever delicious-sounding burger is being featured that day. On the one…read more »

Sunday Brunch: Huevos Rancheros

May 4, 2015 10 Comments

Huevos Rancheros is one of those things that I see on the menu of just about every brunch place we go to, but never ever think to order because why on earth would I want salsa all up on my eggs? Hollandaise sauce, yes. Soy sauce, for sure (it’s an Asian thing). Ketchup and/or salsa, nope. Buuuuttttt,…read more »

Sunday Brunch: Smoked Salmon, Goat Cheese & Scallion Scrambled Eggs On Toast

April 5, 2015 3 Comments

Happy Easter, everyone! What are you all doing today? In my family, we don’t really have any Easter traditions. When I was a kid, my parents would buy me stuffed bunnies every year and take me to local Easter egg hunts, but once I got older Easter stopped being a thing. I think that happens…read more »

Runny Fried Egg, Kale & Beet Toasts

October 8, 2014 16 Comments

Fun fact: when you eat nothing all day but nachos, pigs-in-a-blanket dipped in ketchup and blue cheese, and hot & sticky slow cooker chicken wings (recipe forthcoming), and then you drink a bunch of Diet Coke and a single glass of red wine to wash it all down, and you are no longer 18-25 years old, you wake up the…read more »

Oeufs en Cocotte + Paris

July 27, 2014 10 Comments

Hi y’all…it’s me! What’s going on with you? Sorry about the lack of posts here at Just Putzing Around the Kitchen the last two weeks, but I’ve been on vacation! And then I was jet-lagged, so there wasn’t much of any action in my kitchen. Also, I lost my camera cable thingy in Iceland and…read more »

Chili Crab Deviled Eggs

June 3, 2013 12 Comments

Have you ever noticed how people have really strong opinions about mayonnaise? It’s such an unassuming condiment, yet it incites so much passion in some people. For example, one of my friends at work would rather go hungry than eat the free sandwiches at our firm-sponsored lunch meetings when they come pre-slathered with mayo. Me?…read more »

Garden Scramble

May 21, 2013 4 Comments

When I told Dan I wanted to go GF, his immediate reaction was confusion (what’s gluten?), followed closely by panic. Was this the end of his gluten eating days? No more bread? No more cookies? OMG, was I trying to starve him? No. I was not. In fact, we’ve been eating better than ever since I…read more »

Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese Egg Crepes

March 9, 2013 7 Comments

The problem with being addicted to Food Network is that it makes me want to eat all kinds of things I can’t have (because it’s midnight and I don’t have deep fried bacon in the house), and definitely should not have (seriously…don’t let me eat fried bacon). Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives is the worst. Every…read more »

Omelette in a Mug

January 26, 2013 20 Comments

So, once again, Dan has abandoned me for the mountains of Tahoe. And guys? It’s pretty great. (Sorry Dan!) The house is quiet,  my Kindle is loaded with new murder mysteries just waiting to be read, I’ve got The Hunger Games playing on TV, and there are two sleepy cats purring up a storm on either side…read more »
