Last weekend of the Olympics, loved being there and watching from home! I just watched the NBC Today show where they are filming at Grouse Mountain. They mentioned food from the area AND they mentioned Nanaimo bars that I had posted last week so with the spirit of the Olympics I am reposting last weeks recipe, enjoy!
With it being Lent, I thought it might be a great time to post some of my favorite seafood recipes. I have a little of everything; fish tacos (a recipe I developed after visiting San Diego)and to "lighten" the recipe up you could roast or grill the fish rather than using batter and deep frying. The corn and crab chowder I developed after a request from a friend who had it at Charlie Trotter's take out store. Grandpa's favorite pasta is my father in law's recipe, it is so easy and the kid's love it. Lastly, something a little special for the weekend the sea bass with tomato mascarpone sauce on a bed of pearl pasta, the pearl pasta (also called Israeli cous cous I found at Fresh Market in Kildare). Enjoy the recipes!

About Me
- Carol
- As a professional in the food industry, before I became a mom, I was definitely a "purist". I like to give the example that when I served pate, I made the pate, weighing it down with my tinfoil covered brick! Once I had children, life got much busier. Consequently, I created shortcuts and do ahead tips for my recipes. Although I firmly believe in cooking with all natural ingredients, it doesn't always have to be so time consuming to cook a wonderful meal. Throughout my professional career, I have worked in many places; gourmet take outs, caterers, restaurants, etc., but my passion has always been teaching cooking. I try to make my recipes very "doable" for the average person with lots of shopping tips and from the knowledge I received from catering lots of "do ahead" tips. My passion has always been sharing my knowledge of cooking, and nothing makes me happier then when I hear that a person made the recipes from my classes and that it was a great success. Hope to hear from you!
