I’ve been getting quite a few eggplants from my CSA. I’m a huge fan of this eggplant salad with goat cheese and smoked almonds, but in hopes of learning other ways to cook eggplant, I tried out this recipe. This is a fantastic salad. The spices add just enough flavor and the fresh lemon andRead more
I’m in love with this casserole. Full of vegetables, whole grains, and protein, this casserole is packed with everything you need for a satisfying and nutritious meal. Roasting the vegetables brings out all the rich flavors, so it’s worth the little bit of extra work. This is the perfect transition dish as we head intoRead more
There’s nothing like fresh summer peaches. I, for one, can’t get enough of the juicy, sweet fruit. So when I saw this recipe in Cooking Light magazine, I knew it was something I had to try. I’m so glad I did. This chicken is such a great summer recipe, it really stands out from theRead more
I made some Curried Couscous Salad this weekend and made this chicken to go with it. This dish is fabulous for summer. The chicken is super flavorful after marinating for a couple of hours and just needs a few minutes on the grill and then a few minutes to be finished off in the oven. TheRead more
These are phenomenal. I’ve always been a fan of spanakopita, but with the pastry crust it’s not something I indulge in very often. So when I saw this recipe for spanakopita turkey burgers, I knew it was right up my alley. I changed the recipe to make these into meatballs because they cook up fasterRead more
This was the meal I made for Valentine’s day and it was perfection if I do say so myself. This steak was amazing and quite possibly the best steak I’ve ever had. This is also the perfect thing to make when it’s too cold out to grill. Although after having steak this way, I’m notRead more
This is a lovely fragrant soup. I’m trying to use my slow cooker more, but I think this would be just as easy to make on a stovetop. One of my problems with using the slow cooker is that usually everything turns out so meaty. Vegetarian meals don’t hold up to the long slow cookingRead more
This chicken salad is phenomenal. There’s just the right amount of spice from the curry powder, balanced by the sweetness of the cranberries and pineapple. The fruit it’s overwhelming, but it adds just a touch of something special that really makes this a standout chicken salad. My mom actually made this for a Christmas party,Read more
I made this for dinner yesterday for a quick, easy weeknight meal. It came together in a jiffy and was a great meal to have on a snowy evening! This is a lightened up version of casserole, but I thought it was great. It’s rich and creamy but not overly heavy. With a bit ofRead more
This is a great soup! I adapted the recipe to include more veggies and I left out the rice. I was going to add in some barley, but my pot was too full! But honestly I don’t think anyone missed it. Everyone went back for seconds, and I was glad I’d made enough that we’dRead more
