Strawberry Rose Panna Cotta

carrie — Fri, 24 Apr 2020 09:00:00 +0000

There’s something you might not know about me. I love roses. I mean, I *really* love roses. The scent of them. The look of them. And the taste of them. Every Christmas when I was a child I delighted in the box of Rose Turkish Delight that graced the candy table. We only had candy […]

Strawberry Almond Porridge

carrie — Tue, 28 Jan 2020 21:33:13 +0000

I made you Strawberry Almond Porridge. Because I often wake up thinking things like, “I wonder what would happen if I threw a pile of chia seeds in my Vitamix and spun the living daylights out of them?”, or, “I wonder if soaked chia seeds would make a good base for ice cream?”, which leads […]

Almond Butter Cinnamon Smoothie

carrie — Thu, 02 May 2019 08:00:54 +0000

I made you an Almond Butter Cinnamon Smoothie. Why? Well, anyone who has come over to keto and low carb from paleo or Whole30, a gym rat, or just come from a general whole food dietary approach has likely been a fan of smoothies at some point. Smoothies are fast, easy, simple, and a brilliant […]

Coconut Lime Yogurt Supreme

carrie — Mon, 29 Apr 2019 08:00:08 +0000

If you’re a fan of yogurt, you’ve probably found that reading the labels of almost every commercial yogurt in the grocery store makes you want to cry. Because carbs. Because sugars. Because strange things you don’t recognize. Because crap. What has eternally been marketed as a health food is often higher in carbs and sugars […]

Chocolate Sea Salt Smoothie

carrie — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 08:00:26 +0000

This Chocolate Sea Salt Smoothie is one way to get a delicious break to your fast or a meal-on-the-go inside you without having to worry about dodgy ingredients and an icky taste like so many commerically-bought smoothies do. And while I love most things with sea salt, chocolate sea salt is for sure one of […]

Coconut Lime Jellies

carrie — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 18:00:11 +0000

I made you some little bites of awesome – Coconut Lime Jellies. Some people might look at the ingredients and call them fat bombs, and while it’s true that they are crammed with healthy fats, they are very different from your typical fat bombs. They don’t need to be frozen, they don’t melt the instant […]

Creamy Green Basil Smoothie

carrie — Thu, 14 Feb 2019 09:00:48 +0000

Smoothies are incredibly popular with folks trying to follow a healthier lifestyle. The *big* problem is that the vast majority of recipes are actually sugar-bombs – packed with fruits and bananas to make them sweet and creamy. And who can blame them? No one enjoys drinking liquid spinach or kale. No one. But this Creamy […]

BBQ Sauce

Look. Yes. I am fully aware that it is rushing towards the end of November and that for those of us in the northern hemisphere, BBQ season was over two months ago. I am also aware that for our friends in the southern hemisphere, BBQ season has just started, and for everyone who lives closer to […]

Hot Chocolate

carrie — Sat, 11 Jan 2014 22:28:06 +0000

Since the first winter chill hit the air you’ve been asking for sugar-free Hot Chocolate to warm you up, and lest you thought I had forgotten you, I can assure you I most certainly have not. It’s just been a busy time in Bookland since the week before Thanksgiving, and the last couple of weeks […]

This is for all you lovely folks who like your Cranberry Sauce smooth, jellied and delivered in slices on your plate. If you’re looking for a traditional lumpy version of Cranberry Sauce, just go here.

Leek and Cauliflower Risotto

Gosh. It’s been a while since I posted a side for you. That’s because I’ve been eagerly, and whole-heartedly, absorbed in filling the void left in your lives by cupcakes, muffins, pancakes, ice cream, and all kinds of other insanity from your SAD (Standard American Diet) life. It’s nice to have sane versions of your insane […]

Today is a most spectacular day. I’ve waited for this day for 1 year, 11 months and 12 days. Not that I’ve been counting, or anything. Today I will be reunited with one of my favorite people on planet earth, who also happens to be the BEST. BOSS. EVER. and I get to work with him again […]

Strawberry Jam

carrie — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 07:34:22 +0000

A couple weeks back when I was dabbling in the kitchen with cupcakes, one of you lovely readers asked me for *SANE Strawberry Jam. I don’t know about you, but I love a spot of strawberry jam on a fresh, home-baked scone with a large dollop of clotted cream. LOVE. I grew up on those things. […]

Chocolate Hazelnut Granola

carrie — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 07:30:26 +0000

It was the holidays. You might have eaten stuff that your brain didn’t want to, but your taste buds definitely did. And sometimes your taste buds won the battle. I escaped unscathed. I live with 5 cats and I eat what I bring into the house – because not one of the cats has ever taken the […]

Brussel Sprouts with Leeks and Poppy Seeds

carrie — Sun, 25 Nov 2012 07:23:20 +0000

I think I’ve seen more recipes lately for America’s least popular side than any other vegetable, which is rather odd, if you think about it. The food bloggers of the world are united in their desire to increase the mileage of these cute little leafy green crucifers, it would seem. I can get behind the Brussel Sprout wagon […]

I’ve had oodles of recipe requests rolling in over the last little while, and I want you to know something. Despite what I can imagine you might be thinking, your pleadings are not falling on deaf ears, nor are they falling by the wayside of my crazily hectic life. I am working away feverishly to get them all […]

Strawberry Pea Shoot Salad

I have a surprise for you. I’ll give you a clue. It’s a post. Gah. I have (almost) totally failed at getting back into my usual cook, shoot, eat, blog routine. Or, in fact, even into the swing of writing. I sit down at my desk and it’s like I’ve had a whiteboard eraser wiped over my brain – […]

Orange, Fennel and Tomato Salad

carrie — Sat, 14 Jul 2012 09:00:48 +0000

I woke up at 3:11 am this morning because I thought there were 3 Lilliputian workmen stomping on the bridge of my nose – with jackhammers. Turns out it was nothing that aspirin, water and a nap couldn’t fix. I am in the deep South. It’s hot. And it’s balmy. When I say balmy I […]

Gazpacho Salad

WHAT. A. WEEK. We were all exhausted. Becky the Greek, Justin the Geek, and me. They both got held up at work, while I was verging on tears most of the afternoon and couldn’t get my cooking head on for love nor money. I was glad they were late, although I wasn’t glad the reason they were late […]

Orange Herb Slaw

It’s been an exhilarating couple of days down at Marmalade HQ. Time in the studio creating a test podcast with the fabulous Jonathan Bailor, the most successful Friday Night Dinner to date, and a Big Breakfast Adventure photo shoot with the {very} dashing Cooper. Coupled with fantastic weather, hanging out with Farmer Becky and The […]

Hot and Fruity Red Cabbage

I’ve worked really hard at getting out of the British habit of talking about the weather before anything else. I’ll have to beg for your forgiveness today, because we’re in a veritable weather crisis up here in Seattle. Yesterday was just a hot mess in the weather department. And when I say hot, I am not talking about […]

Avocado and Walnut Salad

carrie — Sun, 03 Jun 2012 20:37:51 +0000

Thursday was an interesting day. I spent most of it sat in a meeting room called “Bainbridge”. I wish I’d actually been on Bainbridge Island instead. The day unfolded to be a very long day made up of a series of blonde moments, mainly concerning technology. Like forgetting to take a power cable for my laptop to a 10 […]

Caramelized Brussels Sprouts with Lemon

It’s a long holiday weekend! YES! Let’s make a ridiculously easy and delicious salad! Celery and Cucumber Salad with Herbs! Memorial Day heralds the official start of summer in the US.

Roasted Grape Tomatoes with Chives

carrie — Sun, 20 May 2012 00:18:18 +0000

Today is my mother’s birthday. My mother loves lilacs. At my childhood home in England there was a huge white lilac tree in the front garden that put forth so many plumes I often wondered how the slender branches held them all up. The air around that tree was thick with a heavy floral aroma as thousands of tiny white flowers […]

Pineapple Pine Nut Salad

There’s this salad. I made it up a long time ago. It’s been an important part of my life for so long now that I don’t recall whether I first made it this side of the pond or the other, but I know I’ve made it at least a hundred times. And I know that I […]

Mandarin Orange and Almond Salad

carrie — Fri, 11 May 2012 22:51:07 +0000

Can we talk about salad for a minute? I do love a good chat about salad. Americans eat way more salad than the English. Americans seem to eat salad with everything. I am a big fan of that approach. I lived in a household where my father grew loads of interesting things in the garden, not all of them edible. In […]

Zucchini and Cherry Tomato Salad

Gosh. I am sitting here a tad overwhelmed, and, if I’m honest, a bit giddy. I am also eating ice cream – I do that when I’m all discombobulated. The last few days have been a bit of a whirlwind. A nice whirlwind, though. An exciting whirlwind. A wholly unexpected whirlwind. The reason for my […]
