Curried Carrot Tahini Salad and Collard Wraps – Brighten Your Day

March 31, 2016 By Jittery Cook 4 Comments

What brightens your day? What shakes you out of the humdrum and says “Hello, I’m here, come and enjoy”?  It could be a person, a pet, a walk outdoors,  a piece of music.  Or it could be something as lowly as a carrot and as mundane as a collard wrap. Abigail Nagorski created these Curried Carrot Tahini…

55 Best Jittery Green Recipes

October 21, 2015 By Jittery Cook 8 Comments

When my mom moved to Canada at age 4, from an inhospitable Poland, people called her a “greenhorn,” a person ignorant of the language and culture. She made it her business to fit in and become a proud Canadian. When she was just 17, she married my dad and entered a world of fresh fruits…

An Ode to An Onion

October 15, 2015 By Jittery Cook 12 Comments

I still remember my first quiche Lorraine from Expo 67.  Lordy, Lordy, the way onions and leeks married with Gruyere and ham was positively sinful.  First dates featured onion soup at the long gone Continental restaurant in downtown Montreal. At high school grad, onion soup from La Crêpe Bretonne took center stage (along with their savoury cheese and mushroom crêpe slathered with maple syrup…

Kale Salad – Sweet and Tangy

June 4, 2012 By Jittery Cook 10 Comments

Healthy Salad

We aren’t alone in benefiting from massage. Kale transforms from stiff and fibrous to pliable and delicious after several minutes of vigorous kneading. It can be kneaded before or after adding the salad dressing. I prefer kneading it before. This salad makes a perfect vegetarian meal for 4 or side dish for 8. Kale Salad …

Stuffed Sweet Pepper – Hearty and Healthy!

May 29, 2012 By Jittery Cook 11 Comments

Thanks to our very own Dr. Joe Schwarcz, we now know about nutritarians and the Disease Proof blog. Personally, I enjoy a balance between great tasting and nutrient dense foods.

Goat Cheese Gnocchi in Lemon-Broccoli Rabe Sauce

May 24, 2012 By Jittery Cook 9 Comments

Vegetarian Recipe

Although I’m leery of creating pasta from scratch, I did learn to make gnocchi more than 35 years ago at a cooking school in Florence. That lesson paid off.
