Chicken Sandwiches with Brie, Spinach, and Thyme-Roasted Tomatoes
March is a weird month for food. You’re pretty much over comfort food, but you still don’t have many options in the way of fresh fruits and vegetables. The tomatoes still look and taste like pink baseballs, lettuce is still of the pale and limp …
Caramelized Fennel with Goat Cheese
Quick. Before spring comes in earnest. Get in all of your comfort-food-eating. And your cheese-melting. And your warm spice toasting. Because spring is coming soon and it will be all strawberries and asparagus. I know it’ll be a month or two, or even three (God …
Lentils with Kale and Bacon
Lentils?! Kale?! What the…. ?! Oh, phew, it’s ok: Bacon. That, right there, folks, was my thought process while looking at this recipe. This is another recipe that falls under the category of not-quite-sure-why-I tried-it, but also the sure-glad-I-did one. Whooee, that was a lot of …
Apple Pandowdy

Chocolate Chip Cake
Since I’ve been on such a roll with my old tried-and-true recipes, I figure I might as well just keep on truckin’. And it doesn’t get much better than this. This is recipe gold, folks. Cake. Chocolate Chips. Cinnamon Sugar. A big chunk of this …
Corn, Green Chile, and Potato Soup
I like to think of myself as adventurous in the kitchen. Apart from my recent cooking rut, I usually like to try a variety of new recipes, use new ingredients, come up with variations on old recipes. But there are some things that I always …
Sweet Potato, Brussels Sprout, and Turkey Hash
Do you ever stop and marvel at how quickly a year goes by? Sometimes I get caught up in the everyday of it all, only to be blindsided by the passage of months, whole seasons, then suddenly, a year. Before you know it, it’s been …
