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…
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…
Za’atar-Crusted Chicken Tenders
Just look at all that crunchy, golden yumminess! It’s got to be time-consuming, difficult, and unhealthy, right? Nope! It’s about a half hour, start to finish, easy (as long as you’re gentle & patient), and healthy! It does use several dishes, so it’s nice to have a dishwasher. The gentle & patient part is the key….
Pork Medallions With Grainy Mustard Sauce
Have you ever noticed how some of the most wonderful foods are rather plain-looking? There’s a lesson in there somewhere, as you could say the same thing about towns, restaurants, even people. This is such a quick, easy dish to throw together, but don’t let that fool you. It works great as a weeknight meal, but it’s also…
Garlicky Pasta With Beans and Broccoli Rabe
This is one of our favorite Meatless Monday dishes. So much flavor for so little effort! It’s an adaptation of a recipe I first saw on Smitten Kitchen, one of my favorite food blogs. I rarely tweak anything Deb publishes, as she’s brilliant and always spot-on. Really, all I’ve done is add the beans for…
