This time of year we’re usually thinking grilling or salads, anything fitting for spring and summer. I’m more likely to make corned beef in the winter. But today was cool, damp, & grey, so it was the perfect opportunity to squeeze it in one last time. I can’t remember ever not liking corned beef. As…

Nutty Shrimp
This dish has it all: quick, easy, and delicious. And unless you’re on a low-sodium diet or allergic to shrimp or peanuts, it’s also a very healthy meal. You won’t need to wash very many dishes, either. One pan to cook the shrimp, one to cook the rice, and one bowl for each of you…
Za’atar Sheet Pan Supper
Do you love Za’atar Chicken Tenders? So do I! Sometimes, though, I’m just too exhausted to make them. They’re easy, they’re quick, but they do require some standing. Maybe you’re tired from a long day of work or play, or maybe you’re like me and have a beat-up body that won’t always cooperate with…
Steak With Red Wine & Shallots
This little treasure of a recipe is quick, easy, and absolutely scrumptious. I firmly believe that some treats are special enough to stray occasionally from a purely healthy diet. A little steak (even if it’s accompanied by a little butter & cream) every now and then is relatively harmless, particularly if you choose a lean cut. I’ve…
Za’atar-Crusted Chicken Tenders
Just look at all that crunchy, golden yumminess! It’s got to be time-consuming, difficult, and unhealthy, right? Nope! It’s about a half hour, start to finish, easy (as long as you’re gentle & patient), and healthy! It does use several dishes, so it’s nice to have a dishwasher. The gentle & patient part is the key….
Beef Garam Masala
This is why I love Indian food! It explodes in your mouth with the richest, most complex flavors imaginable. Granted, this recipe isn’t authentic Indian, it’s just my own interpretation. But it’s really quite delicious if I do say so myself! I really wasn’t looking for another beef recipe. I do love beef, but it’s not…
Pork Medallions With Grainy Mustard Sauce
Have you ever noticed how some of the most wonderful foods are rather plain-looking? There’s a lesson in there somewhere, as you could say the same thing about towns, restaurants, even people. This is such a quick, easy dish to throw together, but don’t let that fool you. It works great as a weeknight meal, but it’s also…
Santa Fe Stew
Here is one of my favorite recipes of all time! It’s so yummy, very filling, and really easy to make. This definitely falls into the category of comfort food in our house. But unlike a lot of comfort foods, this stuff is actually good for you! No matter how often I make it, we…
