GourGanics Vegetarian Tamales
Have you ever made homemade tamales? This is very fun, simple enough more work than most recipes here but oh so delicious. This is an Old Guatemalan recipe that I have adapted from Vegetarian Times Magazine. Some Latin markets and Whole Foods carry frozen banana leaves (many organic). Here’s whatcha need: Flour (MASA) 3 1/2…
GourGanics HAPPY SUMMER Mahi Mahi Mango Fish Tacos
I love a good fish taco. You can go out for tacos right here in Fairfield, CT. If you are local, I suggest the Mahi Mahi fish tacos at Bodega. I tried my first fish taco in California about 16 years ago and I was hooked. Pun intended. I loved crispy crunch of a deep-fried…

It’s the last day of school, finally. The kids are done. Mom is done. The teachers in the Fairfield Connecticut School system are ALL DONE.

try it, love it salsa chicken divan casserole
This tasty casserole is modified from an old-style 1950’s recipe that involves cans of condensed soup. YEK. This version is a little less fattening. For an even lighter version, omit the mayo. I don’t. I like the way it creates a delicious crust,when blended with buttered bread crumbs. The salsa adds a wonderful zip and…
Roasted Broccoli dipped in salsa
Thanks to a recipe from Circle of Mom’s and my good friend Nancy, we have learned that roasting broccoli at a high temperature and sprinkling with salt creates a crispy, sweeter and more delish dish. I’ve never been the greatest fan of broccoli as a side dish. But I know it’s super good for me. …
