Colorful, delicious curry! I started developing this easy recipe several years ago. I recall making it several times, adjusting the seasonings and refining the instructions, but never being quite satisfied. It went on the back burner, so to speak, for a few years. Long enough ago that I can’t remember what put the idea in…

Fresh Ginger-Orange Chutney
A tiny bit tart, a hint of sweetness, and a playful nip of ginger. This bright chutney is the perfect accompaniment for Apple-Barley Chickpea Curry. You can serve it immediately, but you’ll enjoy it even more if you make it a day or two ahead of time. I don’t remember where I got these cute…
Three-Bean Chili For A Crowd (Slow Cooker)
Nothing beats a hot bowl of chili on a blustery winter day. Plenty of things are tied, mind you, such as Homemade Hot Cocoa, French Honey Bread, and Beef Stew. But did you ever notice that chili is just as delicious in hot weather? There’s something about spicy food that makes you feel warmer in the winter and…
Cilantro-Mint Pesto
Too many fresh herbs is a wonderful problem to have. It seems I finally rid my Aerogarden of aphids (knock on wood), and now my cilantro is growing wild. My mint is beginning to emerge from the ground, and it looks like it may have more than doubled in size since last year. I’m really…
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…
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…
