Our schedule has changed drastically around the dinner hour several nights a week. We’re going to be coming and going a lot, and I am DETERMINED to avoid the convenience of the drive-thru as much as possible. When you’ve moved to the land of opportunity, where there is a different drive-thru on every other [...]

At least not in a traditional sense. But this was one of those dinners that just came together so easily, and turned out much more tasty than I thought possible. I mean, I thought it would be passable as edible, but I wasn’t expecting how delicious it would be- and I definitely didn’t expect [...] I knew this recipe was going to be quick to make, but really didn’t realize just how quick it was going to be. The other day I pulled down my copy of A Year In A Vegetarian Kitchen, thinking that it had been a while since Jack Bishop made a guest appearance on my [...] Yesterday I clicked onto my blog to dig into the archives and look for something, and I was stunned. Yes, stunned. It has really been two full weeks since I’ve posted. I honestly didn’t think that much time had passed, or I would have made more of an effort, I think! Anyway, I’ve got [...] When I first saw today’s recipe featured on Serious Eats, I was drawn to it. The fact that it was described as “Clam chowder on spaghetti” totally sold me to the idea that I needed to try and make this dish. But there was one tiny thing standing between me and that spaghetti. Sardines. [...] One of the many things I learned about Swiss Chard last year is that it is very garden hearty, and also a biennial. That means that when I plant seeds in April, I get chard all season long from that one seed. No lie. I had chard anytime I wanted by heading out to [...] When faced with a whole pile of leftover pork roast, quite often, I don’t know what to do with it. Many times, it just sits in the fridge until it turns grey,and then it gets tossed. Other times, I’ll scoop some up, mix it with BBQ sauce and serve it up that way. Pork [...] Yesterday, as I was coming up with my Menu Plan for the week, I was also trying to figure out uses for leftovers in the fridge. Many I thought I’d be able to use for lunches this week, but there was a container of pulled pork that was really in a must-be-used-today situation. Leftover [...] I was just going to say Old Favorites, except that the other day’s polenta is surely a new favorite. Can I just reiterate how delicious that was? And can I just say that it was also wickedly easy? Trust me, if you’re eyeing up that polenta, it’s worth giving it a go. Last night [...] A few weeks ago I received a mystery cookbook in the mail. I do get quite a few cookbooks in the mail, but this was one I didn’t remember reading anything about, or ordering. Alas, it was a Good Cook order, and I’d forgotten to reply that I didn’t want the book. I looked [...] Here we have another quick and easy staple of our kitchen. Andy absolutely loves sausage and peppers. It’s one of those things that he seeks out if we go to a county fair or a festival, there’s always a stand selling hot sausage with peppers and onions. While it’s always exceptional, it’s also something [...] Last week I had a craving. A craving for comfort in the form of a pan of rice and a pork chop. My original plan had been to cook them separately, and give the pork chops a nice breading. As dinner crept closer though, I could not get the idea of a warm, comforting, [...] |
