We&#39;ve both been super busy, and I&#39;ve been eating dinner at my parents a lot. This weekend though, we spent a fair amount of time at home and cooked several things. It was nice to get back into the kitchen. Especially with Stefan, who chops everything super quickly, makes sure the kitchen doesn&#39;t look like a disaster by the end and takes great photos.&lt;br /&gt;

3. Every month I get Food Network Magazine in the mail, a gift from D&N. I love going to check the mail and finding the magazine! I had picked out a few recipes, and we made a variation of the <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchen/cajun-macaroni-salad-3812072">Cajun Macaroni Salad.</a> I never found creole mustard, so just made my own out of dijon mustard, worcestir sauce and hot sauce. I also added in some vinegar to add a bit of punch. Enjoy!<br />

28. After a terribly indulgent summer, Stefan and I are finally back to eating a bit healthier. I think we were just a bit too focused on food, always cooking elaborate meals for each other and eating way too much. One of Stefan's favourite things to eat is greek salad. Fresh tomatoes, olives, feta cheese (his mom's is the best).  I saw <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/tomato-salad-with-feta-and-pistachios">a recipe in Bon Appetit </a>for a variation with roasted pistachios and decided to try it. The most important thing is the quality of the ingredients- especially the feta.  We also used fresh parsley from our (herb) garden and it was really nice.  Anto dropped by, and we were able to whip this together quickly for a nice, light, healthy, summery meal.<br />
29. <u><br /></u>
30. <u>Ingredients</u><br />
31. 3 tablespoons pistachios ( I bought them with shells and shelled them)<br />
32. 1 pound mixed tomatoes, some sliced, some cut into wedges<br />
33. cucumbers<br />
34. olives<br />
35. red onions, jalepenos, any other vegetable you want<br />
36. Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper<br />
37. Basic Lemon Vinaigrette ( the ratio should be 1/3 lemon juice to 2/3 good quality extra virgin olive oil)<br />
38. ¼ cup chopped parsley<br />
39. feta ( I prefer it sliced to crumbled, but either works)<br />
40. <br />
41. <u>Instructions</u><br />
42. - preheat oven to 350<br />
43. - roast pistachios for 6-8 minutes<br />
44. - crush pistachios using mortel and pestel<br />
45. - Arrange tomatoes on a plate; season lightly with salt and pepper.<br />
46. - Mix vinaigrette, ¼ cup parsley, and two-thirds of pistachios in a small bowl. Drizzle over tomatoes. - Top with feta, parsley leaves, and remaining pistachios.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.doubletroublekitchenedition.com/feeds/8616944150249853088/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=992839683611515001&amp;postID=8616944150249853088' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/992839683611515001/posts/default/8616944150249853088'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/992839683611515001/posts/default/8616944150249853088'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.doubletroublekitchenedition.com/2017/09/greek-salad-with-pistachios.html' title='Greek Salad with Pistachios'/><author><name>El</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00974868597612629590</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmPoiimXMZgrN27hQzNu7DAbgHv2RgDwp6vbKqcdsRz9z5zxyQZ-lo6knB0AIRKQX4-hV91_cMMfVwWYeLjhh_0Nps6qxyf5keWfB8Y-7h1SMSwbpBoZi5g9e1-aVQ/s220/elgeek.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWykrwOy5nMUnwhl_bQsSGeW8FOM1Bdxwhj9Mo88WocPgvyOYHfATHr54za1kaXfwwyP7vhv4Omr0ndSuiuoA7bbXVn9f56vzUMu2qQiRbFFOd8ohuCxbopcn9-yoGv6Bl8vvo2HlQd6k/s72-c/33383F12-9F07-4751-8DD0-5295232F14C1.JPG" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-992839683611515001.post-2343326429489281961</id><published>2017-06-13T15:45:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2017-06-13T18:27:43.461-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="delicious"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="food"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="healthy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Recipe"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Salads"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="yummy"/><title type='text'>Teriyaki Pasta Salad </title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

53. Thanks to Stefan for taking these nice photos. I didn't even have to fold laundry this time-- what what!!<br>
54. <br>
55. I saw a similar looking salad on <a href="http://www.lecremedelacrumb.com/mandarin-pasta-spinach-salad-with-teriyaki-dressing/">Creme de la Crumb</a> and couldn't get it out of my mind. I really wanted to make it for this potluck street party at Stefan's parents' street we were going to on Saturday evening. Sometimes, I get these ideas in my head and it's hard to change my mind. We had 4 bunches of asparagus and had talked about making some grilled asparagus..but then, despite having none of the ingredients for this salad, I decided to go out and buy them and make it. Stefan ended up doing most of it, as I was out at the rehearsal dinner for Kristin and Shawn's wedding. Stay tuned for an update and some photos on that. It was so much fun. What a busy weekend!!<br>
56. <br>
57. How do you get a chef to follow a recipe? It ain't easy. Stefan was pretty good though, and mostly followed the instructions. I took the opportunity to show him how useful the ipad is for cooking and recipes. Stefan thinks my ipad is useless, as I have been rarely using it since I got my new laptop. He keeps threatening to get rid of it. Nooooo!!!!!<br>
58. <br>
59. Our key takeaways- use good quality extra virgin olive oil. Not canola oil. It won't be the same.<br>
60. Also don't mix everything together and then add dressing before serving. Instead put the dressing on the pasta right away so the flavour can develop and the pasta stays MOIST. When you are ready to serve, add spinach and the rest of the ingredients so the leaves don't get soggy.  Finally, always use fresh garlic if you have some instead of garlic powder. That's just a personal preference.<br>
61. <br>
62. We brought it to the street party and it was a lot of fun. What a neat idea and nice way to get to know your neighbors and enjoy a nice spring evening outdoors.  There were so many delicious salads.<br>

75. A while ago, I saw the Jamie Oliver cookbook- Everyday Superfood- over at Stu's. He always has a big pile of random stuff that he buys for gifts for people. Anyway, I saw it and was like, I want this! It was supposed to be a gift for someone else but I hijacked it.  Then, it sat at my place pretty much untouched for a couple of months. I was starting to feel a bit bad. Maybe it should have gone to its intended recipient..nah!! I flipped through and saw so many great recipes that I can't wait to try. It has several recipes for different "Jam Jar" salads. I modified it a bit- replaced quinoa for barley, as I didn't have 1 hour to cook barley and quinoa takes only about 20 minutes. </div>

79. Mason jar salads are super convenient as you can make a few and then have lunches ready to go! I made some back in the day- recipe <a href="http://www.doubletroublekitchenedition.com/2015/06/mason-jar-salad.html">here </a>. Wow my photos used to be a lot prettier. I forgot to take layer photos this time around. To eat them, I find it's best to pour out of jar into a bowl so you can mix it all up. If you don't have a bowl at work, you can eat it out of the jar. </div>

189. As usual, I am way behind the trend. I have been wanting to make Mason Jar Salads for a while and had been saving recipes for them on my <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/ellybean/">Pinterest boards</a>. Finally, I got a big box of mason jars at a garage sale ( at the sweet price of $1 for the lot), put them through the dishwasher and decided to give it a go. You can also buy jars at your local hardware store or just save and re-use jars you have. </div>

191. <br /></div>
192. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
193. You can pretty much use whatever ingredients you want and layer them. This is a variation on a Caprese pasta salad. Start with a dressing on the bottom, then put tomatoes or some veggies, then a grain or pasta and keep layering up, ensuring that leafy greens are the top layer, and trying not to leave too much empty space in the jar. </div>
194. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
195. <br /></div>
196. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
197. The great thing about using these jars is that you can make a few in advance and they keep the ingredients nice and fresh. Very handy for lunches. </div>

230. My mom had bought me these lids a while ago and they work perfectly for mason jars.  I was so happy that I remembered where I was storing them and that they fit! Ahh...when the stars align like that.. :) They are great because they don't leak so you can really shake up the jar to mix up the salad before eating it  Apparently the metal ones that come on the jars can be a bit of a pain and can sometimes leak.<br />

235. These are from a Hardware store in Boston, although they should sell something similar in Canada.<br />
236. <br />
237. I mixed up my salad and poured it out onto a plate for lunch.  If you are on-the-go, eating it out of the jar would work fine too.  It was so delicious! I can't wait to eat and make more of these!<br />
238. <br />
239. Stay tuned for more mason jar salad ideas!<br />

242. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
243. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Due to all of this I've decided to start taking photos of the food at the different restaurants I go eat at or get takeaway from for lunch at the office.</span><br />
244. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
245. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Liebsteinsky is what I've decided to start off with. For anyone in Vienna, Austria go <a href="http://www.liebsteinsky.at/" target="_blank">HERE</a>! It's at Schubertring 6 and absolutely lovely. There's outdoor seating as well as the inside of the restaurant opening it's huge glass windows allowing the inside and outside to connect making it one big winter garden ?</span><br />
246. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
247. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had the Chèvre Salad consisting of green salad, grilled goat cheese (two big pieces I may add), orange dressing, pieces of orange, tomatoes and basil.</span><br />
248. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
249. <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This salad is something I've been craving for a while now so I was glad when a friend recommended it to me and even happier when it tasted as good as it smelt! </span><br />

Thanks &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lightchasers.ca/#!blog/csxz&quot;&gt;Deb&lt;/a&gt; for hosting! &amp;nbsp;I always have a nice time with this group and learn a lot from them. &amp;nbsp;It is really fun to have a set with backgrounds and lighting. &amp;nbsp;I got light stands for Christmas from D&amp;amp;N and now I just need to take the plunge and order some lights..&lt;br /&gt;

276. We decided to make a salad with beats, almonds, goat cheese and arugula or kale. Perfect colourful winter salad to fight the winter blahs. It has been so cold!  I know salad might not be the first thing that comes to mind on a cold day but this one is hearty and filling and a nice break from stews.<br />
277. <br />
278. The recipe we used is from Ina Garden, Barefoot Contessa cookbook and can be found <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/balsamic-roasted-beet-salad-recipe.html">here</a>.<br />
279. <br />
280. Deb roasted the beats in the oven, as per the instructions. They were delicious. I actually still have beets from my fall vegetable share and they are still good. I kept them in the fridge and am amazed at how long they lasted.  If you are short on time, however, you can always pick up some of these ready-to-go cooked "<a href="http://www.lovebeets.com/meet-our-beets/">love beets</a>" from Costco or the grocery. They are super convenient to have on hand. <br />

338. I love making salads like this that I can take in my lunch for a few days during the week. It saves me a lot of time getting ready in the morning! And then I have a lunch I actually look forward to eating!<br>
339. <br>
340. I would suggesting whipping up a big batch and putting it right into Tupperware! Or serve it to your dinner guests!  Feel free to modify the ingredients, depending what you have on hand.<br>
341. <br>
342. I got the idea for this salad a few weeks ago when I ate something similar from the amazing salad bar at Whole Foods. It was so good. I couldn't wait to have it again. Unfortunately, the next time I went to WF they didn't have that same salad.  In the end it's probably for the best, as those salads can be an expensive habit. So I bought some Israeli couscous and got to work. I bought it at Trader Joe's in Boston, because well, I love Trader Joe's. But really, you could buy it anywhere.<br>
343. <br>
344. Then I googled some recipes for israeli couscous salad, clicked on the first one that  popped up (it's from the <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/israeli-couscous-salad-with-smoked-paprika-recipe.html">Food Network</a>)  and miraculously had most of the ingredients. That almost never happens! I tweeked it a bit and used this <a href="http://www.doubletroublekitchenedition.com/2014/06/mango-lime-salad-dressing.html">dressing</a>  as I had just made some.<br>
345. ( I added in a dash of paprika to the dressing). I also like eating it served on top of a green salad to make it more substantial.<br>

354. I have a lot of recipes to share with you, but I decided to start with this one, because well it's short! It is also very easy to whip up. Especially if you have a little blender such as Magic Bullet, or Cuisinart etc.</div>

358. I am getting my bi-weekly <a href="http://www.jardinrochongarden.ca/CSA.htm">veggie CSA shares</a> now, and consequently have been making a lot of delicious salads with fresh, local produce.  I ran out of my usual salad dressing so decided to try something a bit different. I pulled up Food network's <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/articles/50-salad-dressing-recipes.html">50 salad dressing</a>s for inspiration- my go-to for dressings. I don't have a subscription to Food Network Magazine anymore, and I miss these little booklets.  This is a variation of number 8- mango lime. I was surprised at how creamy the mango makes it. It looks almost like a ranch or ceasar dressing, without all the calories! woo I also really like Rubbermaid's small salad dressing containers. They are great if you bring a salad in your lunch, and so far haven't leaked at all. </div>

401. I haven't gotten around to posting this recipe for a little while, as things have been very busy. I actually made this for lunch on a weekend for my parents a few weeks ago. I went over before going to Costco, and as you will know if you've ever been to Costco, it's a bad idea to go in there hungry. You will definitely need some energy to tackle the huge and wonderful store- and also to keep you from getting to the cash with a cartfull of food to feed an army and a $300 bill.<br />
402. <br />
403. In comes this quick and easy recipe. It comes from a  recipe from a cookbook "One Pot Cooking" that Gail gave me as a present years back and had somehow gotten shelved in my bedroom instead of on the shelf in the living room with the rest of my cookbooks. Now that it is back where it belongs, I am putting it to use. I always complain about doing dishes and not having a dishwasher so this cookbook is a lifesaver. I loved this fresh easy recipe and will definitely make it again.  Please note that fresh mint really makes the dish, so it is a must!!<br />

431. After a few heavier meals on the weekend I was in the mood for something light. I love ordering a nice goat cheese salad at restaurants and it seemed easy enough to make it myself. I inspired myself from a recipe from Martha Stewart's Great Food Fast cookbook.  For the salad part, feel free to use whatever you want, lettuce, potatoes  tomatoes  etc, and then top with the broiled goat cheese. This recipe is also healthier then most restaurants because the cheese is not fried. It turned out delicious, and would be a nice light summer meal or appetizer to serve to dinner guests!<br>

460. I spent my long weekend in Boston with my parents and my sis and her hubby. It was a nice mini-vacation :) filled with lots of wonderful cooking!! Much of it done by my brother-in-law who is a great cook. The downside, however is that he doesn't really follow recipes, so I have nothing  to show for on the blog on that front. I do have some other new recipes to share.<br>

499. Sometimes when I bring a salad in my lunch, I dread eating it. Today was not one of those days!! I was so excited to eat my salad with this dressing that I made last night. <br>
500. <br>
501. I had a delicious lemon-thyme salad dressing at a restaurant recently, and wanted to try and recreate it. Well unfortunately, my grocery store was all out of thyme. I came across this recipe, on yummly- food network, and decided it would satisfy my craving. It's tangy, with a bit of a kick. D and I ate a huge salad last night...before heading to the movies and stuffing ourselves with popcorn. It balances out right?- Side note- The Perks of Being a Wallflower is such a good movie! I highly recommend it :)<br>
502. <br>
503. Definitely add this one to your repertoire.<br>

509. I love salads in a taco bowl, and I also love steak, so when I saw this recipe featured in the Cooking Network magazine, I decided to give it a try.  It also reminds me of a really good salad I've had at a mexican place down the street from my work. In fact, Emily, GG and I are long overdue to go back there. They even give you deep fried ice cream on for your birthday and its delicious. But work has been hectic beyond belief lately. I haven't been able to get away at lunch, let alone eat at sit down restaurant. This salad is a good fill in- for now!</div>

533. I have come to realize that many of my recipes come to be from not having the proper ingredients.  In this particular case, I actually did have the ingredients, however, my avocado was hard as a rock and not ready to eat. The recipe I was planning on following used 2 avocados, so I substituted with many other ingredients, making this salad really filling. At work, it seems everyone (myself included) has been snacking constantly..and not on healthy snacks. Its funny how being very busy or not at all busy both tend to lead to snacking, in the former case out of stress and in the latter out of boredom. Having a lunch that fills you up and leaves you satisfied really helps. <br>

540. Usually when I bring a salad for my lunch I end up eating everything in it- except for the lettuce. That is, a few pieces of chicken or cheese, nuts, tomatos or whatever other "prizes" (as my mom calls them)  are in the salad.  I would then be hungry and snack constantly throughout the afternoon. Nothing worse than trying to be healthy and then eating more in snacks than if you'd just eaten a big mac.  On several occasions, <strong>Emily</strong> and I each brought salads in to work and were less then excited for our lunches. "Would you like to try some of my salad?" I would ask. "no thanks.. want to try mine?" "no, that's alright..thanks".<br>

589. This recipe is from, The Complete Canadian Living Cookbook. I made a few modifications to make it even more tasty. It is healthy and provides you with a real boost. I came home from my tennis lesson feeling tired, ate this for dinner and suddenly had lots of energy, so I went out for athletic conditioning class. It's filling without making you feel heavy and sluggish. <br>

632. I had been wanting to make this recipe for a while. I was exhausted last night and fell asleep the second my head hit the pillow. This morning I woke up energized and rested and decided to make this salad before work so I'd have it for my lunch. It has a few different steps, but doesn't take too long to make. I got the recipe from my colleague Kelsey's blog <a href="http://www.kandktestkitchen.com/2012/04/5-meals-under-50-shopping-list-v2.html" target="_blank">K&KTestKitchen</a> she has a feature on 5 meals for under $50. Great idea. Can't wait to eat this! <br />
633. <br />
634. <u>Ingredients:</u><br />
635. <u>Salad</u><br />
636. 1/2 cup quinoa, dry<br />
637. 1 medium sweet potato, diced<br />
638. 1/2 tablespoons olive oil<br />
639. Salt and pepper<br />
640. 1/2 can black beans (rinsed and drained)<br />
641. 1/2 avocado<br />
642. <br />
643. <u>Chipotle-Lime Vinaigrette</u><br />
644. 2 tablespoons lime juice<br />
645. 2 tablespoons olive oil<br />
646. 1 chipotle in adobo, minced (this can be found in a small can sold in the mexican section of the grocery store. If you dont have use bell peppers or chili flakes) <br />
647. 1 tablespoon honey<br />
648. Salt, to taste<br />
649. <br />
650. <u>Directions:</u><br />
651. -Preheat the oven to 425°F.  Dice the sweet potato and drizzle it with olive oil.  Roast sweet potatoes on a baking sheet lined with baking paper for 30 minutes. <br />
652. - Add one cup of water and the quinoa to a small pot.  Bring the water to a boil.  Once the water has started to boil, turn the heat to low and cover the pot with a lid.  Cook for 15 minutes.  Remove the lid and fluff the quinoa with a fork.<br />
653. - Mix the sweet potato, quinoa, black beans (rinsed), and diced avocado in a bowl.  Add the Chipotle-Lime Vinaigrette and toss well.<br />

657. This dish was supposed to be called- spinach with orzo and feta, but since I had no idea how much 1/2 pound of orzo was, I ended up with much more orzo to less spinach. This dish is easy to prepare, and the fresh mint makes it summery and fresh! Thanks to my friend Kristin for helping me decide what to make last night, as I was being very indecisive. The recipe is from Martha Stewart, I spotted the recipe in Claire's cookbook when i was in Boston.  It's good warm or cold as a salad. <br />
658. <br />
659. <u>Ingredients:</u><br />
660. - 1/2 pound orzo (I'd say 3/4 cup- if you have a scale that's even better)<br />
661. - 1 pound spinach or baby spinach<br />
662. - 1/2 cup fresh mint<br />
663. - 1/2 cup feta (light feta works too)<br />
664. - 2 T fresh lemon juice<br />
665. - 1 T olive oil<br />
666. salt and pepper to taste<br />
667. <br />
668. <u>Directions:</u><br />
669. Cook orzo according to package instructions. Add in spinach. Drain. Transfer to bowl and mix in other ingredients. enjoy! <br />

676. This salad makes a great light dinner or lunch. It's the perfect meal to have following a weekend filled with food and bigger meals (i.e. Passover and Easter this weekend).

707. This salad is suggested to go with <a href="http://doubletroublekitchenedition.blogspot.ca/2012/03/ricotta-spinach-pasta.html" target="_blank">Ricotta Spinach Pasta</a> it is from <em>Cooking Light</em> as well. For once, I actually followed the suggested pairing. It's a nice change but still simple and easy enough to pull together in 5 minutes. It could be a nice summery accompanyment to pretty much any main course. <br />
708. <br />
709. 1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil<br />
710. 1 tablespoon lemon juice<br />
711. 1 1/2 tsp honey<br />
712. 1/4 tsp pepper<br />
713. 1/8 tsp salt<br />
714. 4 cups lettuce<br />
715. 1 cup orange sections<br />
716. 1 ounce oil cured olive halves<br />
717. 1/2 cup sliced fennel bulb ( I omitted since I didn't have any)<br />
718. <br />

728. I was craving something light and healthy. I openned the fridge and saw cellery and apple, and decided to make a waldorf salad. The original recipe has mayo (not so healthy) so I looked up a several different recipes for a lighter version. I couldn't decide whether to make a yogurt dressing or an oil/vingar dressing, so i decided to make both. I ate the yogurt part right away for dinner and saved the other type for my lunch the next day, as I thought it may keep better. Both were good but I think i prefer the yogurt variation. I guess it just depends on what you are in the mood for. The quantities can easily be adapted and substitutes can be made based on what ingredients you have in the house.<br />
