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…
Green Tomato and Lentil Stew
Here it is, the first week in October, and there is sill plenty left in my garden to harvest. My Swiss Chard plant is almost as big as I am, my 2nd cucumber planting has just started to produce, the scarlet runner beans are still flowering, and there are tons of green tomatoes. Realistically, even an…
Chorizo-Stuffed Jalapeños
My garden is bursting with jalapeños. I didn’t realize just how many until I cleaned out the spent cherry tomato vines. There were loads of jalapeños hiding under there! Many of them had ripened to a beautiful red. They’re really fiery, hotter than their less ripe green neighbors. I think the flavor is better & a little smoother…
Radish Salad With Summer Squash
It’s raining radishes! They make a perfect base for this summer salad. It’s got a great complement of crunchy, sweet, and snappy, a perfect side for Black & Bleu burgers from Primal (seriously, if you’re in the 518, pick up a couple of these delicious burgers. Cracked pepper seasoning around the outside, bleu cheese incorporated into the burger. Perfection!)…
Bicentennial Pork Tenderloin
One of my favorite go-to recipes when I’ve no energy to cook, or more important things to do. So fast, so simple, so delicious – it’s even fit for company! And because it’s grilled, no clean-up. Many thanks to Penzeys for inventing this great rub. You’ll find a printer-friendly version of the recipe at the bottom of this page. Ingredients:…

The first day of fall has hit the Midwestern region and it seems that gardens are producing a bounty of veggies that need to be picked and processed before the cooler temperatures set in. ?Once again, a few local growers were kind enough to share an…
Plank Grilled Shrimp With Summer Veggies & Pasta
Summer splendor on a fork! This is the perfect meal for a hot summer day. Fresh, with a delicate balance of flavors. A little smoky from the planks, but not so as to overpower the veggies; a little subtle sweetness from the balsamic, peppery zip from the basil, and mini mouth-explosions from the salt. It…
