You know spring has arrived when the fresh, locally grown asparagus starts popping up at the farmers’ markets! I anxiously await asparagus season every year. Asparagus is only harvested for a few short weeks so we try to make the most of it while we have it readily available. I usually just roast it with [...]
I’m a huge fan of quiche, but I can no longer eat the crust. (I tried buying a gluten free crust the last time I made a pot pie, and it, um, left a little to be desired.) I’m a huge fan of swiss chard, but I’m getting tired of eating it sauteed in olive [...]
Many moons ago a good friend introduced me to this delectable guacamole recipe. It was the start of a beautiful but rocky relationship. We were the best of friends until one fateful night when I overindulged in this delectable treat and made my tummy very unhappy. This unfortunate incident was the first of many such [...]
A few weeks ago I posted a menu plan and asked for help with the sausage that I’d bought at one of the farms I frequent. Heather came to my rescue as usual and suggested a breakfast skillet with roasted potatoes. That sounded like a nice change of pace, so I printed out her recipe and [...]
Chicken Gruyere one of our favorite “special” dinners, and I didn’t realize I hadn’t shared it with you yet! I found this recipe years ago on AllRecipes.com, and it has become my stand-by special company dinner. But Chicken Gruyere is also great for the family. My husband and kids DEVOURED it last night. Here are [...]
I usually have a ton of cooked chicken meat in my freezer so I’m always looking for new ways to use it. Since going gluten-free, I’ve missed enchiladas and the like, so when I came across this recipe for Chicken Enchilada Casserole, I decided to try it. Unfortunately, it did not agree with my temperamental tummy, even though there [...]
It didn’t take me long after being transplanted to Philly to discover the wonder that is Philly Sausage & Peppers. I know, it’s a travesty that I lived 23 years never having it. I’ve tried several recipes lately and I’ve finally come up with one that we love. Serve this on a hoagie roll with [...]
Last night I was sitting around at about 4pm with a pound of hamburger meat thawing in water on the counter and no idea WHAT to do with it. (I add “in water” for the foodborne illness nazis who come out of the woodwork when I make stray comments about thawing meat on the counter.) [...]
This is a great nourishing breakfast to start your day off right. I’m trying to incorporate vegetables into my daily breakfasts, but it’s not always easy. This is the easiest and tastiest way I know how, and it has become a staple in my diet. Basically, you need good quality pastured eggs and whatever cheese [...]
When my friend Jill read about my discovery of the spaghetti squash, she posted this recipe for Italian Turkey and Spaghetti Squash Pie. We finally tried it last week. In a word — YUMMY. Since I no longer make pasta *let’s take a moment of silence, shall we?* spaghetti squash is my new BFF. It [...]
