Kale and White Bean Minestrone

September 27, 2017 By msmart 8 Comments

Clean out your fridge soup. Pantry soup. Everything soup. I wasn’t quite sure what to call this one. It’s always chock full of vegetables, with canned tomatoes and white beans and leafy greens thrown in for color and texture. White bean minestrone seemed like the most accurate title, or maybe I just gave up and…

Weeknight Meal Plan: September 25-29

September 24, 2017 By msmart Leave a Comment

I just looked up and it’s the last week of September, not quite sure how we got here! Anyone feel the same? Hurricane Harvey threw off the month big time and Houstonians are scrambling to catch up. Piles of sheetrock, torn out flooring and ruined furniture still cling to lawns, and meal trains are still…

PrintFish TacosPrep 10 minsCook 15 minsTotal 25 minsAuthor Marcia W. Smart Growing up in Southern California, I love good Baja-style beer battered fish tacos.

Simple Roasted Salmon

September 18, 2017 By msmart Leave a Comment

Simple salmon to the rescue! Roasted salmon keeps the mess off your stove and in the oven. No more splatters of fishly smelling oil hitting your stove and counter top after sautéeing filets in a pan. White wine keeps the fish moist, and a fresh sprinkling of herbs and lemon wakes up the flavor after…

SUNDAY Sunday afternoons are for enchiladas. I tested a couple gluten-free enchilada recipes tonight, and I’m not sad about it. I’m teaching an enchilada casserole in my Central Market cooking class Wednesday night, and I wanted to test the sauce one more time before class. Spoiler alert: It was delicious. Here’s a similar recipe, but…

Chocolate, Almond and Date Smoothie

September 13, 2017 By msmart 7 Comments

Craving something sweet for breakfast that has fuel to get you going, but tastes like a chocolate shake? Whirl up this chocolate, almond and date smoothie full of nutrient dense supplements and whole foods. It all started one day after I played tennis in the Texas heat and I came home feeling like my face…

Kitchen Essentials

Getting Back to Normal I always knew Houston was all about the people. Whenever childhood friends or colleagues from our life in San Francisco ask if we like Houston — or more bluntly, “why do you live there?” — I would always reply that the people were amazing, which is what made us love it….
