Healthy Recipe Roundup

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...]

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...]

Roasted Broccoli and Red Onion

May 10, 2016 by overtimecook 6 Comments

Roasted Broccoli and Red Onions is a quick-and-easy side dish that you'll make over and over again.  Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! It's time for an admission. I'm not a cheap person at all. In fact, I kinda wish I were a bit more cheap from time to time. But this is one of those cases where I thought cheaply, because fresh (checked) broccoli is pretty pricy, while onions....well, they aren't. So I stretched one package of fresh broccoli into a much bigger side dish, (Feel free to add extra onions to the mix!) and in the process, I discovered that red onions are a delicious side kick to the roasted … [Read more...]

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...]
