I know…I know…I’m on a green chopped-up herby kick (see Pistachio Mint Pesto recipe from a few weeks ago)! It’s what I do when Spring comes around. All those greenies are so fresh & fragrant…and the lemons are tart…and put together it all tastes like Spring smells. New. Bright. Floral. Try this lovely gremolata on
Spring is springing!! What better way to celebrate the end of a dark, cold Winter than by baking up a batch of sunny, fresh lemon rosemary scones! Lemon & rosemary – two of my favorite tastes…and they taste even better together. Give a try & I guarantee you’ll be singing the praises of Spring! Ingredients
Basil pesto is one of my favorite things to make. But what’s a cook to do when the Summer basil’s not yet ready? Make other kinds of pesto – of course! In case you didn’t know, the word “pesto” originates from the Genoa word “pesto” which means to “pound” or “crush”. Typically comprised of 5
There is NOTHING like fresh pasta. The texture of I-just-channeled-my-Italian-grandmother-to-make-these-noodles is so different – chewy, soft, supple.

It’s a really solid main course which tastes even better the next day.
I have to admit that I LOVE a recipe that takes basic, perhaps even boring, ingredients & turns them into something amazing! Such is the case with rösti, what many Swiss consider to be their national dish. To be clear – this is NOT a potato pancake. Potato pancakes are made from raw potatoes whereas
It’s starting to feel like Spring is a-comin’! The robins are filling the trees & warmer temps are getting me excited to be outside. I LOVE this time of year! I also LOVE the change in foods that Spring brings. It’s finally time to step away from the winter squashes & instead fill my grocery
I love gnocchi! Those little pillows of flour & potato are delish! But I hardly ever make them because they are so intricate & time-consuming. That’s why I’m so excited that I found this version! Roman gnocchi are bigger in size, baked, utilize fewer ingredients & therefore are much more accessible for a weeknight dinner.
I saw these A-DOR-ABLE eggplants in the store the other day. They were labeled “Indian Eggplants”…which I had never heard of. So, I looked up a recipe right there at WinCo & brought a few home! Super tasty & quite fun! If you can find these at your store, give ’em a try! Ingredients 1″
