Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
We've had these with lovely blueberries. Always delish. No reason why we can't have blueberries and lemon curd!
Salmon Burgers with Lemon-Herb Sauce
I always used canned wild salmon for burgers. The fresh filets are way too expensive to grind up into burgers, and Atlantic Salmon is bad for the environment AND for you.

Super Bowl Snacks: Loaded Baked Potato Potato Chip Nachos
Well, these can't be bad! Since I never met a potato I didn't like adn these are all about potato, that its a cinch to be great. aslo, if you suffer from the "O" syndrome, like I do ... Frito, Dorito, Cheeto, Tostito, Potato chip ... well, Super bowl Sunday is the king daddy of junk food! Add a few ings and LOTS of bleu cheese to dip them in and there ya have a little bit o' heaven. Oh, don't forget to crumble good bleu cheese over kettle or home made potato chips and melt the cheese ... that says it all.

And these are "nachos" how— ?! No corn chips, beans, guacamole, jalapenos, pico de gallo?
¡Hijole!
Super Bowl Snacks: Loaded Baked Potato Potato Chip Nachos
Wow! I thought I was being decadent by making my own giant nachos out of halved corn tortillas (http://www.shindig411.com) but this is to die! I'm glad there are cooks out there who understand that going way over the top from time to time is a good thing. A little divine decadence now and then is what keeps me on the straight and narrow. I too, could care less about the football. I'm just there for the eats! Like the idea of piping on the mashed spuds...
Super Bowl Snacks: Loaded Baked Potato Potato Chip Nachos
@stewmeat: here in dayton Ohio, our local potato chips (MikeSells)(awesome) and chocolate (Ester Price) teamed up and you can buy gift boxes of chocolate covered potato chips. Salty-sweet, yum! Check it out

Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
Made the batter for my daughter and SIL, she cooked them at home...loved them. They ate the pancakes with honey & strawberry jam. I didn't make the lemon curd--too many eggs... they enjoyed anyway.
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
Delicious pancake recipe, with the best tangy ricotta flavor I've had yet, but I was disappointed they weren't fluffier with all those egg whites. Maybe I overworked the batter, but these weren't even half as thick as my usual buttermilk pancakes. the lemon curd was delicious though, and great on cold leftover pancakes.
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
I gave these a shot this week and found the pancakes a little too delicately flavored for the lemon curd. If you want the pancakes to lead, use a bit less curd.
I'm also learning that I think I prefer dense, buttermilk-style pancakes to the lighter and fluffier egg-white variety.
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
I've had those Northstar pancakes. They're one of my first Columbus, OH food memories, and probably still one of the fondest!
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
Mekuno: Honestly never had them...I do miss the freshly made ginger ale and that veggie burger. Combine that with a hot summer day out on the patio, and I'm set.

Mmmm... are you by chance missing the Northstar Cafe ricotta pancakes, Nick?

I just ate my monitor while trying to taste the picture of these pancakes.

My stomach needs this ASAP!!
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
Resolution: FAIL! Though all New Year resolutions are already a thing of the past, I had at least decided that this week I would NOT stop off at the store on the way home to pick up this or that ingredient for dinner, but would only use what I have in the house - until this recipe! DAMMIT! Who always keeps ricotta on hand?!!? Very light and tasty pancakes; and the curd was far easier than I thougt it would be....thanks

You wouldn't believe me if I said this but *THIS* is something I made when I was a kid home alone! My parents wouldn't let me use the stove, so I wasn't allowed to "cook" a whole lot. Oh, how it reminds me of my childhood back in Taiwan! What we called "oranges" in Taiwan are actually clementines, and I would juice the crap out of them, pour the juice in to the blender with some ice and sugar and just eat spoonfuls of it, while enjoying my pseudo-kitchen prowess.
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
What a perfect way to get rid of the rest of the ricotta in the fridge! Love pancakes too. :-)
All I need is eggs for this one. I ran out this weekend.
Can't seem to find my zester which is problematic at the moment.
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
if it weren't for all the egg yolks, i'd smear curd over everything i ate. my goal in life is to turn all fruits into curds, although so far i've only succeeded with mango-lime and passionfruit.
also, ricotta pancakes may be the best of all possible pancakes.
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
My mouth has never watered for pancakes... until now.
Dinner Tonight: Ricotta Pancakes with Lemon Curd
Does anyone have any tips for making these on a cast iron skillet? I have heard cast iron is the way to go for great pancakes, but I've always used a griddle pan. Thanks!

This sounds amazing!
