Fancy Tarragon Aioli

Fancy Tarragon Aioli

This is great on hard cooked eggs (pictured) and roasted artichokes or any type of crudite. My husband likes it on a roast beef sandwich with tomato, onion and Arugula.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 Cup olive oil mayonnaise
  • 1/2 Cup sour cream
  • 1 Tbs dried Tarragon
  • 1 Tsp Garlic Salt
  • 1 lemon, juiced and zested
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine all ingredients well.
  2. Transfer to a fancy serving bowl, cover and refrigerate until cold (about an hour).
  3. Serve with par cooked carrots, asparagus and broccoli. Or, a boiled and then roasted artichoke.

Crustless Goat Cheese Vegetable Tatin

Before going in to the oven.
This one is not just a pretty face. She packs a wallop of health and tops it with a cherry of exceptional taste.

There are certain vegetables my husband does not like. Summer squash, like Zephyr, Zucchini and Crook Neck are on the "I won't eat them, so do not cook them," list. Unless I fancy them up like in this amazing and super easy crustless "tarte."

Happy St. Patricks Day and a Brand New Soda Bread

Yep, I've been really, really lazy. Just so you know, blogging is hard, keeping up with life and then adding said life to blog even harder and then there is the pressure. You see something cool, you want to share something cool and then you realize laundry and groceries trump something cool.

But I'm getting back to it. Who knows how often or when or what or anything. But I'll do my best to get back to chronicling cool stuff. I have a Pin Board that is even called Basic Coolness. I like cool stuff, knowing full well that my cool is not the same as somebody else's cool, but (said with a twinkle in my eye) I know who my tribe is and they know who I am.

With that said, I am going to dedicate this post to my friend Peter. He lost his mother yesterday, and the world is a lesser place without Elaine.
