Summer Vegetable Salad

Summer Vegetable Salad

This recipe might fall into the “duh” category.  I should probably make that a thing on my recipe category side bar.  This salad would be in there, along with this and this.  You know- things that are so basic that you really don’t need a recipe

Bok Choy Salad with Sesame-Almond Crunch

You know what I get sick of hearing?  How leafy greens are so good for you.  (Before you start, yeah, I know they are. I like them even.) Whenever someone starts in on the benefits of leafy greens, my eyes kind of glaze over.  Because 

Baked White Beans with Bacon and Breadcrumbs

Oh, spring, you tricky little vixen.  You’re hot, you’re cold.  You’re sunny, you’re rainy.  If it weren’t for the air being slightly, wondrously scented with the hint of rain, and the daffodils poking their heads through the grass, and the fuzz of green buds covering 

Mushroom, Spinach, and Walnut Soup

When I friend requested that I come up with a recipe for the soup she loved at one of her favorite restaurants, I was all, “Heck yeah!” I love a good challenge, don’t you?  The real challenge, however, is that this restaurant is in Arizona,

Pork Chops with Apples, Onion, and Thyme

A lot of quick meals happen in this house.  Have I mentioned that there are TWO tiny little humans here who both need my completely undivided attention, without fail, about twenty minutes before we should be eating dinner?  It’s perfectly delightful I assure you, but 

Apple Pie Biscuits

Everyone has their favorite fall thing. Pumpkin is a biggie.  Sweet potato is another one.  Mine is apples.  Come autumn, I want apple everything.  I love how versatile they are, how perfect raw or baked.  I feel the same way about apples in the fall

Vanilla-Scented Rhubarb and Strawberry Crostata

A month ago, I gave birth to a baby girl.  A month ago.  This past month has gone by so fast that I’m feel like I blinked in May and woke up in June.  And yesterday, I teared up just a little when I realized
