Pumpkin Whipped Feta with Dukkah

October 22, 2023 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Pumpkin season is upon us and I wanted to create something seasonal and special, with a modern and unique twist. I love the simple idea of whipping cheese to a creamy spread and topping it deliciously, like my Whipped Feta with Za’atar Roasted Tomatoes. Here I’ve given it a perfect seasonal touch, salty, tangy feta blended with earthy pumpkin. The burnt umber color looks … [Read more...] about Pumpkin Whipped Feta with Dukkah

Whipped Feta with Za’atar Roasted Tomatoes

July 23, 2023 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Summer is all about casual entertaining for me. It’s too hot and too busy to be hosting elaborate dinner parties. I love drop-in, come as you are drinks or cook-outs, or the cold supper.

I love a hearty cold pasta salad in the summer. This version is inspired by the classic Greek flavors of shrimp, feta and tomatoes, which is a favorite combination for me. The fresh tomato vinaigrette and pops of salty feta marry with Greek-inspired herbs, with a little fennel for crunch and bite. Hearty enough to serve on its own, but you could also scoop into lettuce leaves … [Read more...] about Shrimp, Orzo and Feta Salad

Green Bean Salad with Fennel and Feta and Crispy Shallots

August 8, 2021 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

I have sort of a strange backstory for this salad. There was a small memorial gathering for a friend, just close family and dearest friends. As one does in these sad times, I wanted to provide some comforting food. Someone had arranged one of those online sign-up rosters and by the time I got the link, the only slot left was green beans. Now, I was pretty sure someone was … [Read more...] about Green Bean Salad with Fennel and Feta and Crispy Shallots

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
