Grilled Corn, Peach and Spinach Salad with Honey Lime Dressing

June 30, 2016 by overtimecook 3 Comments

Grilled Corn, Peach, and Spinach Salad is a fantastic celebration of summer flavors - with sweet, savory and even smokey!  Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! Every now and then, a recipe kinda changes me. Take my Grilled Corn and Pastrami Salad for example. Until I made that salad, I liked corn salad in any form. Fresh corn, canned corn, frozen corn - it was all good! But then I grilled corn for a salad, and I can't ever go back! Whenever I think about making a corn salad of any kind, I automatically decide to grill it. The grilling process lends this smokey flavor to the corn, and adds a depth of flavor … [Read more...]

Asian Kale Slaw

February 10, 2016 by overtimecook 2 Comments

Asian Kale Slaw is an easy and flavorful salad that's bound to become your new favorite! Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to attend a media seminar at Fischer Bros. and Leslie, one of New York's oldest kosher butcher shops. It was interesting to learn about a different time - when small butcher shops, house accounts and personal attention were the norm, not the exception. In today's day and age of mass production, it's nice to visit a place that still does things the old fashioned way - a family owned butcher shop where customers know the staff - and the staff knows … [Read more...]

Before we move on to this awesome new purple cabbage salad recipe, I need to stop for a minute and acknowledge that 2016 is upon us, and ohmygosh what a year 2015 has been! 2015 will go down in history as the year I wrote my first cookbook, but it's also been amazing in other ways. I can't believe how my little blog has grown - not only was it viewed 2.5 million times this year(!!), but just under one million unique visitors have come. That's such a mind-boggling … [Read more...]

Grilled Corn and Pastrami Salad

August 18, 2014 by overtimecook 21 Comments

Grilled Corn and Pastrami Salad has an amazing smoky flavor, bringing together all of the best things about summer food! I'm feeling deja vu here. I know, this recipe is brand new, but I really dreamed it up a while ago. In fact, this salad was the original inspiration for this grilled chicken and corn salad. The recipes both started to run together in my head, what with the whole grilled corn (yum!) thing going on, and it's kinda confusing. Especially because my head is pretty confusing as it is, with multiple cookie recipes being formulated at any given point too. But despite the similarities between the recipes, I decided to just go for it and share this one. Mostly because...um, … [Read more...]

Grilled Chicken and Corn Salad with Creamy Avocado Dressing

July 22, 2014 by overtimecook 9 Comments

Grilled Chicken and Corn Salad with Creamy Avocado Dressing is the healthy and delicious way to enjoy summer grilling and fresh produce! I've been planning this salad for over a year now. I know. It sounds crazy. Who spends a year planning a salad? Granted, I did do one or two other things during that year, but I kept thinking about this salad and planning it until it was making me very hungry all the time. (Fine. I'll admit that there may have been other things making me hungry, but still.) I guess I was waiting for a good time to make it - a special occasion worthy of trying out a salad this amazing. The chance presented itself when my sister invited me to her house for the … [Read more...]

Creamy Avocado Salad Dressing

June 17, 2014 by overtimecook 14 Comments

Creamy Avocado Salad Dressing is easy to make and healthy - you'll soon be putting it in/on everything! Y'know what distresses me, as a food blogger? Sometimes I have a recipe that gets buried under the awesomeness of another one. Like, when there's a great cupcake recipe, and then it's dreamy frosting recipe gets buries. Shame, especially because said frosting is totally my favorite chocolate frosting. Ever. And then there was the post with mouthwateringly delicious ribs, but nobody noticed the world's best barbecue sauce that goes with it. Or with other food. Slathered over chicken cutlets on the barbecue grill this summer, for example. Oh, and did I mention my favorite salad dressing in … [Read more...]
