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 7 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...]

Mushroom and Garlic Quinoa is an easy side dish that will make you love eating healthy! Have a question about one of my recipes? 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...]

Click here to signup. I've probably talked about this before, but the weather is turning cold again, which, I've decided, gives me license to talk about soup, comfort food, and other over-discussed topics. Stick with me, kay? Anyway, I woke up Sunday morning, and it was COLD. Like, skip-the-fall-and-rush-straight-into-winter-kinda-cold. And I knew I needed to make a big pot of soup.
