A list of entrees.
Rhubarb season is relatively short. Bakers take this time to elevate their pies, crisps and cake game. I’ve taken these red vibrant stalks and have gone savory. This rhubarb chutney includes garlic, onion, apple cider vinegar and ginger to give it a punchy kick of robust flavor. The combination of […]
Loaded with juicy grilled pineapple, red onion and crisp lettuce, this Hawaiian BBQ Chicken sandwich is perfect for summer entertaining! THIS homemade BBQ sauce from @mybizzykitchen is what really puts this sandwich over the top.

These buttery bundles are filled with roasted asparagus, smoked Gouda and prosciutto along with a touch of honey mustard. Fun to make and a real crowd […]
Spring is definitely the season for grilled lamb chops. If you’re like many, you have a preconceived notion that lamb is too gamey with a robust flavor. However, grilled chops marinated in earthy herbs, garlic and lemon zest mellow the flavor. Grilled lamb chops are an easy dinner that you can have […]
Over the years, I’ve tackled this pasta dish a few different ways. This recipe comes from “Brooklyn Supper” and is fool proof. As simple as this 4 ingredient pasta is, you can end up with clumpy cheese and a thin sauce… but not with this Cacio e Pepe. (Literally means […]
Thai Lettuce Wraps Positively bursting with fresh flavors and textures, these Thai lettuce wraps are quick and easy to make and are low carb, low calorie and low fat. The perfect balance of sweet, savory and spiciness with aromatic herbs and the fresh crunch from lettuce. Perfect as a healthy […]
Another quick weeknight dinner. This breaded cutlet goes by many names…schnitzel, milanese, milaneza and more. By any name, Chicken Schnitzel, a traditional Austrian dish, (although there is some dispute it originated in Italy) is made up of thin cutlets of chicken that are panko-breaded and lightly pan-fried. It’s quick and […]

This is a simple mussels in red curry sauce recipe. The sweet-and-spicy curry with the sweet-and-briny mussels make an irresistible pairing. It’s perfect for a weeknight dinner or will impress as a dinner party entree. Serve with crusty bread to sop up the spicy, delicious sauce. Thai Red Curry Mussels […]
Sole Meuniere is a classic French dish made with sole fillets. Dover sole is meaty and succulent, but with a delicate flavor. When it comes to cooking, the simplest way is the best, as in classic sole meunière, where butter and lemon subtly enhance the taste and texture. Sole Meuniere 4-6 […]
This delicious and crispy Fried Fish Sandwich is a “healthier” take on your Friday fish-fry. A simple fish patty with a dollop of tartar sauce and a slice of cheese sandwiched between soft buns. This version skips the heavy batter and spends less time in the oil. In classic fashion, […]
New Orleans Barbecue Shrimp actually has very little to do with barbecue. This dish never touches a barbecue or grill. A New Orleans classic, the shrimp are bathed in a buttery sauce with loads of hot sauce, worcestershire sauce, and garlic. If you keep shrimp in your freezer, it’s one […]
Leftover brisket? I love turning leftovers into another meal and making it seem like an original. Adding a savory-sweet tomatillo jam pairs perfectly with the spicy, tangy brisket. Top with sour cream and chopped chives. Serve with a side of greens. Loaded Brisket Baked Potato and Tomatillo Jam 1lb tomatillos […]
Simple and unexpected. A flatbread smothered in a savory peanut sauce then topped with chicken, crunchy carrots, red peppers, mozzarella and cilantro. Ready in 25 minutes. All. THE. FLAVORS. Game time. Thai Chicken Naan Pizza with Peanut Sauce, Red Peppers and Carrots Serves 4 Peanut Sauce 1 tablespoon sesame oil 1/4 cup peanut butter […]
It’s a snow day around here and my kitchen is begging for a slow-cooked meal. Bolognese fits that bill. When you think of Bolognese you probably think of a meat sauce. Yes, a true Bolognese does include meat (like Marcella’s Hazan’s famous recipe) but it also contains dairy like milk […]
Black bean burgers are a wonderful way to cut back on meat and get the protein you need. They are a healthier meatless alternative to traditional burgers, plus you get all the amazing benefits of beans. Black beans are a nutrient-rich food that are loaded with potassium, fiber, folate, protein, […]
This one-skillet chicken pot pie comes together in just about an hour, from prep to plate. This classic, homey comfort food is topped with a patchwork of crispy, golden-brown puff pastry. Use a store-bought frozen puff pastry so all you need is to make the filling. Leeks and thyme lend traditional […]
Game Day…what’s cookin’? This big, messy and tasty Street Fair sausage-and-pepper hero is happening here. One pan with all the veggies and sausage ready in 30 minutes. The honey mustard sauce is the perfect condiment. Don’t skip it. Sheet Pan Italian Sausage Heros with Honey Mustard 1 package Mild Italian […]
A game day favorite. This healthy-ish version of wings hits all the classic flavors minus the deep frying and bones. Simply cook the cubed chicken breast pieces in a little olive oil, then add in Franks Red Hot Sauce, butter and spices til fully coated. Serve with the usual suspects…celery […]
Three ingredients: orange juice, soy sauce, butter. This simple, rich citric sauce (another Keller stunner) is the perfect companion for Halibut. I could not love this dish any more!!! A good substitution for halibut is grouper, sea bass or mahi, mahi. Orange Sauce 1 cup orange juice, about 3 medium […]
Split pea soup is one of my favorite comfort foods. This creamy, smokey, earthy soup contrasts nicely with the crispy sausage. Adding a ham hock enhances that smokiness. This soup is super easy to make. You simply sauté vegetables, then add all other ingredients into the pot and simmer for […]
Sunday cooking!! Even if you’re not a cabbage lover, you will be with this winning combination. A whole Chicken atop cabbage, Yukon potatoes and carrots are roasted at 400 degrees. The cabbage cooks slowly in salty buttery drippings until charred and caramelized. The juices from the chicken create an unbelievable […]
This 30 Minute Thai Peanut Chicken Ramen is for those nights when you need a cozy, healthy dinner with little time to pull it together. All made using healthy, pantry staple ingredients. The tender noodles, juicy chicken, and colorful veggies are soaked in a rich broth that is nutty, savory, […]
Heartier than chicken soup, this classic comfort dish is more like a stew with a simple biscuit dough added in the last minutes. Typically you start with whole chicken or pieces to make a broth, but there are many shortcuts. I made my broth with 2 lbs of chicken breasts. […]
Faithful readers, thanks for waiting. I’m still dealing with tech issues on this site, and have made this dish 3 times since my cyber-ordeal began!!! It’s that good, and it’s prepared in less than 30 minutes. The technique of poaching is the perfect method to gently cook fish (I also […]
These baked taquitos are a great, easy-to-make Game Day appetizer! The taquitos are stuffed with a mixture of shredded chicken, cheese, salsa and spices. We like to serve them with sour cream, avocado, salsa, cilantro, tomatoes, and cheese! Double up and freeze for a later date. Baked Chicken Taquitos Makes 10-12 1/3 cup cream cheese […]
Happy New Year! I’m happy to have finally resolved technical difficulties that have kept me from sharing delish recipes with you over the last month or so. Thank you for your patience and support. Ribollita translates to “reboiled” in Italian, because like many soups, it tastes better the next day. This classic, […]
