A family favorite for years! This is a one-bowl dinner that everybody likes. You can even do the prep ahead of time; then just assemble the packets & bake. And clean-up is a breeze. The chicken is incredibly moist & tender. I’m not usually a huge fan of zucchini, but I really love it in…

Rogan Josh
Oh, I do love comfort food! This is one of my favorite Indian style dishes. The flavors are so deep and rich, it really is quite a treat. I’ve tweaked it a bit over the years to reduce the fat and sodium. I think it’s one of the best examples of how much flavor you…
Black Bean Enchiladas
Happy Meatless Monday, a day in advance! You will surely be happy eating these hearty enchiladas. We were almost done with dinner before my chief tester noticed there was no meat. They’re that good. They go great with Sweet & Spicy Pickled Peppers if you actually have any left. So many meatless recipes end up not being…

Green Tomato Sauté
We had our first real frost this week. Considerably later than usual, so I’m not complaining! There’s still a lot left in the garden, though. I figured the Swiss chard would be okay with a light frost, as would beets & carrots. The rest, I covered with frost covers & an old duvet cover that fits…
Chipotle-Mint Shrimp With Chorizo
I’m still not sure what prompted me to try pairing shrimp with chorizo. (It’s Mexican style chorizo, by the way, not Spanish.) I’m so glad I did, though, because it was delicious! There’s something about the heartiness of the sausage that’s a perfect complement to the lightness of the shrimp. Each holds the seasoning a…
Let’s Go, Orange! Sheet Pan Supper
Clap clap clapclapclap! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. My husband & chief taste tester came up with the name for this delicious sheet pan supper. Can you tell we’re both Syracuse fans? I was out in the garden earlier, doing a little clean-up. I’m amazed at how much is still out there, considering it’s October. I decided…
