There’s nothing quite like sitting down on a crisp day with a bowl full of freshly made soup or homemade chili. A few weekends ago we all gathered at my brothers house where he served a fresh chicken-vegetables soup with homemade stock. I, of course, could not resist bringing along my “millet skillet” to go […]
I get pretty excited when the fresh summer vegetables start pouring in from the garden. Even though the season is winding down, thanks to this hot summer, the tomatoes and squashes are still producing! Okay so maybe you don’t have a garden (although you should give it a try!) but a quick stop at your local […]
While I enjoy spending a long time in the kitchen preparing fancy meals, I definitely appreciate those dishes that are quick “go-to” staples, the ones I can just throw in the oven after a long day. This recipe is perfect for that. Just chop, bake, and season. So simple, yet so good! Sweet potatoes go with […]
Tis the season for summer cookouts and pot lucks. As the warmer weather approaches, my number of outside cookout obligations increases exponentially. Of course that means being able to produce multiple tasty “summery” dishes for each occasion. But let’s be honest, you can only eat so many potato salads, raw veggies, and fruit…aka, staple cookout foods. Often […]
I’ve had this recipe posted for awhile, but I’ve made a few updates and wanted to highlight it again because I just love it! The flavors and combination of ingredients are so unique, and yet so simple and festive, you can’t help but love it as an addition to any holiday get together. If your family […]
Last week at the market I received a bag of green, purple, and yellow string beans in my bushel of vegetable goodies…not to mention the green bean bushes in my garden have begun to recover from the critter damage and are now producing delicious green beans! Needless to say, it was time to make an awesome […]
It can get boring having the same flavors and seasonings over and over again each night of the week. For us, it tends to be some sort of Italian concoction of flavors; however, as much as we love it, having a cuisine of a different region can be quite refreshing. If you’re not accustomed to […]
By now it is no secret that I love my vegetables! (and not just because my mother said I should). Sadly, an often forgotten gem of vegetable is the Brussels Sprout. I really believe, however, that the key to great Brussels Sprouts is preparing and cooking them correctly! It really comes down to texture for most people…no one wants […]
When I have to reign myself in from over-eating on vegetables, I know it’s a good recipe. I’ve made this medley for a few different functions and every time it’s a hit…even among those who do not run to the vegetable platter. I typically double the recipe and use a large roasting pan so I […]
There is something magical about the leaves changing and the air turning crisp, setting the stage for fall squashes, apples, and pears to kiss every recipe with sweet goodness. It’s time yet again to kindle a love for the fall squashes. Often as I’m purchasing an excessive number of butternut squash at the market or grocery I get […]
