Before I went to Morocco I had never eaten a pistachio. The closest I had come to a pistachio was in the Jello pudding my dad ate. But, once I ate one, well I was hooked – and a little upset that I had missed out on this delicious nut for the first 20 years [...]
Moroccan pastries are small, bite size gems of deliciousness. Most have nuts, usually almonds, honey, and powdered sugar. Sadly, the majority also have wheat making them off-limits for us. Ramadan is right around the corner and I have been re-making all of our favorite treats into gluten-free replicas. Are you ready for a ghriba-a-palooza? I’ve [...]
Do your kids cringe at the sight of cooked carrots? One of the easiest and most delicious Moroccan salads is this cooked carrot salad served at room temperature and dressed with a simple vinaigrette. When I was growing up I, like many other kids, wasn’t too fond of cooked vegetables. But, fresh vegetables well that [...]
This weekend is considered the start of summer in the United States. So, it makes sense that the theme for this weeks’ Sunday Supper is Picnics. It seems like we missed spring and are jumping right into summer considering we’ve only been without snow on the ground the last three weeks. I however, am not [...]
This week I’m participating in #WeekdaySupper, where contributors share easy meal ideas to help you get dinner on the table. As soon as the snow melts here, and sometimes when it’s still flying, our grill is on overdrive. Most everyone loves grilled burgers, but I like to mix that up. This recipe combines the Moroccan [...]

I often have leftover rice but the main dish has been eaten up. I don’t think rice reheats very well but I have remade it into fried rice. As I was getting ready for this week’s Sunday Supper I came across another use. I’m making Frijol con Carne in honor of our upcoming vacation to [...]
I am no stranger to Middle Eastern food though many Moroccan “foodies” would argue that Moroccan food isn’t Middle Eastern food. I would tend to agree with that. This recipe is a great example of just how true that is. I am participating with several other food bloggers taking part in a virtual potluck using [...]
I had really great intentions of getting this post up earlier this week but work got in the way. I hate it when that happens! Today is the last day of Hanukkah and so I wanted to make sure that I shared this post before it was too late. Then again, this whole experience has [...]
My kids are on their way back to school Tuesday. This mama is going to release a big sigh of relief when it happens. I loved having my kids around this summer, we did a lot of really fun things but sometimes it’s just too much! Since I’ve started working for myself it’s been a [...]
Banh mi is a Vietnamese word meaning bread and most commonly refers to a baguette filled with sandwich toppings. Like Morocco, Vietnam was a French colony/protectorate. Wherever the French went they left their indelible mark of bread and boulevards. In Morocco the bocadillo sandwich, a baguette filled with a mishmash of ingredients is a well [...]
