Twice baked stuffed spaghetti squash…wow that’s a mouth full!  Have you attempted to make a spaghetti squash?  After many attempts, I found that if you bake the spaghetti squash to perfection then mix the spaghetti squash with your favorite sauce, stuff the shell of the spaghetti squash and baking it again…comes out perfect every time!

mandarin cake

I have not been baking lately as my oven has not been working…I was blessed with a new oven from my landlords and was itching to bake a cake.  My friend Susan came over last week and was going on and on about a mandarin orange cake that she just loved, it had pineapple, whipping cream “frosting.”

Roasted Vegetable Salad with Quinoa

January 26, 2016 By Patty Limatola-Tanenbaum Leave a Comment

Roasted Salad

I love rooted roasted vegetables in the fall which then leads into enjoying them for the winter.  Usually when I make them I tend to use the roasted vegetables as side dishes, as a staple, I tend to use carrots, parsnips and brussle sprouts which I think is a pretty good combination.  Recently I had a follower, Jim, send me their favorite recipe for roasted vegetables for the winter, it included beets and bok choy.  I had never roasted bok choy so I thought this could be an interesting recipe to experiment with and it would allow me to explore something new, I’m glad I did.  I do make an amazing beet salad, where the beets are roasted in the oven and I love that recipe so when I had seen that this recipe had beets I thought why not try it.

baked macaroon

My daughter’s friend, Amanda loves my chewy coconut magic bars so every time there is a party or celebration I make them for her as I know it means a lot.  Last night Amanda’s mom was hosting the soccer dinner party for the girls and I realized I didn’t make the magic bars for her so I created this recipe for a flourless coconut cookie with chocolate chips for them.

Roasted Rooted Vegetables…Perfect Combination for Winter

March 9, 2015 By Patty Limatola-Tanenbaum Leave a Comment

One of my favorite sides to make is roasted vegetables as it takes little effort with great reward.  In the summer I tend to roast bell peppers, onions, zucchini, mushrooms, eggplant and so on…once the vegetables are roasted, I use them for sandwiches, appetizers, sides or even just chopped in a salad.

In the winter, I tend to roast rooted winter vegetables, I try to think about what vegetables compliment each other and how do the vegetables change in flavor once baked.  I use vegetables like carrots and parsnips, I also add fennel and brussel sprouts but if you want to stay true to rooted vegetables you can omit the fennel and brussel sprouts and add potatoes or yams.

For the vegetables, buy what’s in season for winter, here are the vegetables I used:

  • Carrots –  carrots are great to roast in the oven as they become really sweet when they are roasted.  I bought a variety pack that had different colored carrots, this added color to my dish but did not change the flavor of the side dish
  • Parsnips – parsnips are a rooted vegetable related to the carrot and parsley family and I find them to be a little sweeter than the carrots when they are roasted.  I have never tried the parsnips raw but they can be eaten raw as well
  • Fennel – fennel is something I grew up eating raw and I just love it!  I eat it shaved in my salads, I make a fennel salad or I snack on it between meals.  Fennel is in the celery family and roasting the fennel will bring out the sweetness in the vegetable
  • Brussel Sprouts – brussel sprouts are something I just love…love…love!  Brussel sprouts are from the cabbage family and can be eaten raw, steamed, pan fried or roasted.  In roasting the brussel sprouts, again, it brings out the sweetness of the vegetable click here for an amazing brussel salad recipe

Another thing to think about in roasting is “how roasted do you want your vegetables to be”?  I say this as I was doing a class recently where I made roasted broccoli with garlic.  I roasted the broccoli for 20 minutes and removed them from the oven and tossed them, the broccoli was cooked to perfection, ready to be platted…it wasn’t good enough for me, I knew if I allowed the broccoli to stay in the oven for an additional 15 minutes I would transform them from being a good side dish into an amazing side dish and I was right!

Every oven is different so in roasting your vegetables go for the color!

For those of you who never bought a parsnip here is a sample of one prior to peeling and being baked

Parsnip

cut the brussel sprouts into 1/4’s

brussel sprouts

place all the vegetables on a baking sheet, season with salt, pepper and oil

prebaked

bake for 20 minutes, at this point they were done but I wanted that extra 10-15 minutes so I tossed them and baked them a little longer

Par Baked

And YUM!

Rooted Veggies

This is the perfect side dish, especially in the winter when these vegetables are in season!  Remember to play with your timing to find what works best for you.  If you are unsure if the vegetables are done cooking, take a fork and pierce a carrot, if the fork goes in easy, the vegetables are done…if the vegetables are cooked through but the vegetables don’t have that “charred” look then I’d recommend cooking them for a little longer.

Chicken Spaghetti Baked Casserole Recipe

January 12, 2015 By Patty Limatola-Tanenbaum 1 Comment

Spaghetti baked

Last Friday I was in charge of making pasta for my daughter’s soccer game.  For all the home games the team asks parents to volunteer and bring a pasta dish that they can sell and the money goes back to the school team.  It always puts a lot of pressure on me as everyone knows that I am Italian and that I went to culinary school.
