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 [...]
Moroccan salads are so important to the dinner table. One of the easiest, is this tomato and onion salad. It’s always on the table if there is fish being served and you’re likely to find it in regular rotation with many other meals as well. It may become a new favorite after you give it [...]
I love scouring the condiment aisle at any market I find myself in. When traveling it’s one of the most interesting aisles to explore. You can learn so much about people and their food culture. I never knew mayonnaise was so easy to make! As part of my preparation to move to Morocco, I’ve been [...]
The tajine is a Moroccan slow-cooker. It’s an ancient cooking pot originally used by the indigenous Berbers of North Africa. It is not only the word used to describe the cooking vessel but the meal contained inside. Braniya happens to be one of MarocBaba’s favorite meals, though it was only this year that he “remembered.” [...]
Morocco isn’t known for it’s coffee culture but I’ve found the “coffee culture” inside of many Moroccan homes to be my favorite part of the day. Arabica coffee sometimes mixed with spices and sometimes alone is brewed thick and served with plenty of sweet, whole milk. In honor of Mother’s Day in the United States [...]
I’m not a baker so this challenge was really a challenge for me. I might have cheated a little bit with this recipe but I was really intrigued and wanted to give it a shot. My Twitter friend @M_Benaj, a Tangier native, told me about this dish that is special to Tangier. Although I’ve been [...]
This week was going to highlight breads of the Mediterranean but I think that we will hold off and postpone for next week. I have decided to leave two weeks to complete each challenge. It will give everyone a little breathing room and a chance to participate. Not to mention allow me to get back [...]
Doesn’t it just look so tasty with the thyme mixed in?? I’ve finally worked up enough courage to start playing around with my basic Moroccan bread recipe to come up with some variations. On my first attempt it’s safe to say it was a success! This is a much more rustic bread than the [...]
I usually spend every Saturday morning hanging out with the boys. Sometimes we head to the farmers market to pick up part of the groceries. Or we watch movies and eat popcorn for breakfast. As the weather is getting colder and the boys are more able to help out in the kitchen I’ve started to [...]
There’s not much baking that goes on in this house. There are two reasons for that 1) I don’t like to measure things and 2) baking usually equals something sweet and generally not good for me so I try to just avoid it altogether. I promised that I would make something this weekend for breakfasts [...]
These are the biscuits that I made to replace those yummy Olive Garden breadsticks to go with our chili last week. I’m not going to give you any illusions that these are better than Olive Garden’s version, because they’re not the same thing. BUT they are healthier, and there are plenty of options you have [...]
