This is my low-fat version of the classic dish which I can’t even read about without getting that Billy Joel song stuck in my head.

The caramel sauce comes together in the time it takes to air- or oil- pop a large bowl. 1 tablespoon canola oil 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons water 8 – 10 cups popped [...]
Christmas Eve Lamb

This is my improvisation of Sally Schneider’s improvisation of Paula Wolfert’s recipe. Phew. The lamb roasts slowly for seven hours, making it a perfect holiday meal, because you can prep it in the morning and then forget about it until dinner time ans spend time with your guests. My version is alcohol-free, and therefore lower in histamine than [...]

Oven-Roasted Summer Veggies

This is my version of a rustic Italian dish from The Italian Country Table, by Lynne Rosetto Kasper. It is more of a technique than a specific recipe — use whatever vegetables look best at your farmer’s market. I ommit the eggplant and the results are still delicious. 1 small eggplant, cut into 1-inch cubes 1 large or [...]
