...sharing food...

i have started this blog with a number of ideas in mind. i love to cook, bake, and otherwise play with food, so i thought sharing what i do might be fun. i am also going to use this as a means of recording the various dishes that i do come up with. i try to use all organic and as much local food as possible, and i am vegetarian, although a fish dish or two may pop up on here at some point along the way. i'll try to describe what i do to make the food, but if you want a recipe, email me at cocinadooglasATgmailDOTcom. i will also offer up some restaurant reviews from time to time, and share food that i eat on my travels. otherwise, enjoy, and make some food!!!
oh yeah... i like beer too!

A Taste of Summer...


I just made the easiest dinner:
Empty 1 container of homemade tomato sauce into pot. Heat.
Cook 1 bag organic whole wheat pasta (Trader Joes).
Pour sauce over cooked pasta.
A few organic greens, parmesan cheese... Voila!!

The sauce was made last summer from those wonderful tomatoes we can only dream about this time of year here at the river. Nothing fancy: tomatoes, onion, green peppers, GARLIC, olive oil, fresh basil, oregano, parsley, pepper and sea salt - but the flavor just can't be beat! So, this summer, remember to freeze some of those luscious sauces and veggies and enjoy summer's bounty all year long!

As you leaf through those seed catalogs, be sure to order some heirloom veggies!

Nice meal - some summer goodness in the middle of the winter! I imagine you can also jar/can sauces for a while as well. I would think they would last a season or two if properly prepped. Looks good!!!
