When Naomi started working on Perfect Flavors, she wanted to include an assortment of family-friendly dishes, creative recipes, and food from her travels all over the world. And let me tell you guys, she seriously delivered! In the … [Read more...]

The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! I ate a local peach yesterday.

April 9, 2018 by overtimecook 2 Comments

The Ultimate Healthy Recipe Roundup to help with your weight loss and health resolutions! Is there a time of the year, more than these post-pesach days, when people are more focused on eating healthy and paying more attention to their diets? No, I don't think so either. Aside from any over-indulgences we may have enjoyed over the holiday, I think there's also a "fresh start" aspect. Before passover, we clean all the food out of our kitchens. Over the holiday, we buy our pesach food. Then when pesach is over and real life starts again, we need to restock. And now, the choice is ours. Do we stuff our pantries with crackers and cookies and all kinds of junk? Or do we load our shelves up … [Read more...]
