Of Goats and Greens
A blog for food and cookery and discussions of weird things like nutrition, restaurant excursions, growing food in my own garden and on my planned homestead; and anything related.
I'm personally mostly interested in foods made from healthy fats and healthy carbs, low amounts of processed sugars or starches, and I definitely steer to a preference for Real Food. (Would someone's great-grandparent have recognized the item as food?) I've a strong interest in vegetables, seafood, eggs, and "ethnic" foods from around the world. Yes, I do make use of "odd bits". No, I don't bake desserts much -- I really don't have much of a "sweet-tooth". Currently all my recipes are gluten-free, or readily have that option.

April 1st: Mashed Sweet Green Peas with Shiitake
This is actually created in memory of the time when I was a child. I looked at the platter of loathed green peas, and, using the logic of the Laws of Similarity, decided that mashing my peas might improve the … Continue reading

Full Sized Crustless Quiche
Something like a month and a half ago, I’d signed up for a pot luck brunch. I truly love the fun and creativity exhibited at these brunches. I signed up to make a couple quiches. Due to my whilst-dining-at-home gluten-free … Continue reading

St. Patrick’s Day: Cabbage & Bacon Stuffed Trout, for #FishFridayFoodies
I joined a challenge to come up with a seafood-based recipe for St. Patrick’s day. I’d hoped to post this yesterday, but things came up, and besides my camera and my computer are reluctant these days to converse with one … Continue reading
Pan Fried Dover Sole (Gluten-Free)
This recipe would probably work for many of the thin white fishes. Unfortunately, ocean perch curls up and makes for a poor presentation, along with not crisping up at all effectively. Dover sole fillets tend to be very tender, and … Continue reading
