Madras Shrimp is one of my favorite ways to cook shrimp. So flavorful, and you don’t even have to sauté the shrimp! It turns out to be a pretty easy dish to convert to a freezer meal, too. What a treat, to come home to a quick and easy freezer meal! A note about…

Chicken, Basil, & Brassica Sheet Pan Supper
This spectacular supper is as delicious as it is beautiful, and it’s healthy, too! It started when I saw a gorgeous head of orange cauliflower in the grocery store. I knew I just had to roast it. And there’s no better way than to give it such glorious company! I borrowed the marinade from Lemony Basil…
Galangal Sautéed Summer Squash With Cabbage
It’s a heat wave! Well, it was. Yesterday it was in the 60s. I know it’s just the January thaw and there’s more winter to come — tomorrow’s predicted high is only 17 — but the seed catalogs are here and 60 sounds like summer compared to last week’s 11 below zero. I love to plan my garden…
Galangal Grilled Pork Tenderloin
Tired of the same old, same old? I love pork tenderloin. It’s one of my favorite cuts of meat. Tender and juicy if you don’t overcook it, and lean. I have plenty of recipes, but this day I just wanted something a little different. It had to be an easy different, though, because the…

If you can’t find ground galangal in your local market, you can order it online from Penzeys or other vendors. Galangal is in the ginger family but has a distinct…
Planked Maple-Molasses Pork Tenderloin
Yes, pink-centered pork! If you learned to cook in the twentieth or early twenty-first century, or learned from someone who did, you probably learned to cook every last hint of pink out of your pork. And you probably used fattier cuts, because anything lean was like shoe leather when well-done. News flash: In 2011, the…
Shrimp with Peas & Seasoned Rice
This delicious, paella-inspired dish is pure magic! Whether you cook it right away or freeze it for later, and whether you cook it on your stovetop or in your Instant Pot, the ease and speed with which you get dinner on the table will amaze your friends and family. On those days when you’re too…
Chipotle-Orange Chicken With Rice
This incredibly easy, delicious treat of a dinner is my take on a recipe from Once a Month Meals. I resized it for two people, decreased the amount of liquid, cut the sugar and salt way back, and added some True Orange Ginger. The result is even more flavorful, and a bit less runny. As the…
