This is so incredibly delicious, it could be the main course! And on top of that, it’s both easy and healthy. I looked at the pile of broccoli and cauliflower as I was putting everything together, and thought it looked like plenty for six people. Wrong! We had five for dinner that night, but I think…

Pork Tenderloin Goulash
It’s been a cool, damp spring this year. Ordinarily, by early June I’m thinking about summery foods, grilling, fresh veggies, that sort of thing. Instead, I’m thinking about stews, crockpots, and hot cocoa. Fortunately, I have most of my vegetable plants in the dirt already, so we’ve at least had a couple of good tossed salads. It will be a bit…
Jamaican Jerk Pork Tenderloin
Someone asked me once if I ever get bored with pork tenderloin. I’ll admit, I do use it a lot. A single tenderloin is just the right size for two people and if it’s a large one, there might even be some leftovers for lunch. It’s incredibly versatile, and its leanness makes it a healthier…
Extra-Tender Corned Beef
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…
Refried Beans (for Birthday Nachos)
Regarding birthdays: “I expect chocolate for breakfast. If you don’t feel sick by mid-morning, you’re not doing it right.” — The Doctor My kids’ birthdays are coming up, which got me thinking about birthday dinners. It’s a long-standing tradition in my family that you get to choose the dinner menu on your birthday. Nearly…
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…
