The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! Tonight's post was supposed to be about Purim.

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...]

The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! Let's talk about New Year's resolutions for a minute. There's an old joke that you wish someone "may your troubles last only as long as your new year's resolutions." So if you're finished with eating healthy, and you're looking for some really decadent recipes...well, I totally get you. Dieting. Is. Hard. (You can browse through the archives for some not-so-healthy recipes, I won't judge.) But for those of you who're looking to eat healthy, and are always looking for fast and … [Read more...]

Roasted Sesame Broccoli

October 6, 2014 by overtimecook 26 Comments

Roasted Sesame Broccoli is a quick, easy, and tasty side dish! The way I've always cooked for holidays like Sukkot is to prepare all of the freezer-friendly dishes well in advance, then last minute, I prepare some veggie sides, which don't freeze well. If you're looking for quick and easy veggie sides to add to your Sukkos menus, I've got just the thing for you: Roasted Sesame Broccoli. When I originally made this dish, I set out to make my Honey Glazed Garlic and Ginger Sugar Snaps. I know, it's quite a stretch to get from there to Roasted Sesame Broccoli, but let me tell you how that happened. My sister asked me to make a vegetable side dish for Rosh Hashanah (I was her guest). I … [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...]
