October 13, 2016 by overtimecook 18 Comments

Thick, creamy, filling and hearty, Creamy Vegetable and Flanken Soup is going to become your favorite comfort food! Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group. This soup was going to be a simple parve (meatless) vegetable soup one day when I was craving something warm and comforting, now that the cold weather is upon us. So I was in the grocery store, roaming the produce aisles, hoping for some inspiration. And it struck, in the form of a creamy vegetable and flanken soup. Not parve, not super quick cooking, but oh-my-gosh delicious. The idea that I had here, which worked out so splendidly, was to cook my … [Read more...]

Obviously, as a professional recipe developer, I work ahead of everyone else's schedules. When you're thinking about Rosh Hashanah, I'm finishing up with sukkos. When you're thinking donuts for chanukah, I'm thinking shalach manos for purim. But sometimes, my ideas don't coincide with the seasons, and I have to hold on to my ideas for a while. Like when it's april and I suddenly … [Read more...]

Spicy Baked Curly Carrot Fries are a simple, easy, healthy and totally yummy side dish....with an extra dash of fun!  Raise your hand if you have nostalgic feelings toward those curly frozen french fries of your childhood. You too? I remember them fondly, and used them as an inspiration for this recipe. But then I made them healthier by using carrots, and made them tastier by adding a delicious blend of spices. But we kept the fun, nostalgic look, because who doesn't love that!
