A Steak Salad Fit for Sunday Lunch…or any weeknight you choose. In the grand British tradition of Sunday lunch, roast beef is the undisputed monarch of the table. Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, a bit of horseradish for the brave—it’s all a glorious ode to meat…

Usher in Spring with this terrific Asparagus, Goat Cheese, and Tarragon Tart. This is a fantastic tart. And it’s right of the moment because it works best with Spring’s earliest and thin-stalk Asparagus. We used both Green and Red Asparagus in ours.  And then there’s…

Tik Tok’s 5-Ingredient Asparagus Pasta Greatly Improved. The best asparagus of the year paired with a spicy, garlicky sauce tossed in pasta.  Then we crowned it with salty, crispy Prosciutto. It’s an amazing meal in minutes!  And it all started out with a post on…

Summer Cooking doesn’t get much easier than this. When I saw Sirloin at our supermarket for $2.99 a lb., I couldn’t let it pass by.  When we were on a limited budget, I gravitated towards this cut of beef for its down-to-earth price and great…

This One Pan wonder checks all the boxes… This is really a spectacular pairing.  It’s a classic combination of lemon and garlic which the shrimp marinate in very briefly along with diced shallots and plenty of chives.  Fresh local asparagus shares the plate with cherry…

A great salad for a weekend lunch or a light supper one night next week. Asparagus is at its peak and radishes are almost gone from the farm stands here. So this week I was on the hunt for recipes that would make the most…

A Vegetarian Pasta kicks off Asparagus Season with a twist. The first asparagus of the season is something we can’t wait for.  Asparagus has become a virtually year-round staple, imported off-season from South America. But nothing compares to the home-grown variety. We love asparagus so…

Beloved Italy is beset with a healthcare crisis like no other. You would have to be living in outer space not to be following the story of the Covid-19 Virus. And if you have an affinity for Italy, I am sure your heart, like mine,…

The Sheet Pan: A great way to cook because it can be used to roast, bake or broil. For Christmas, one of Andrew’s gifts to me was Molly Gilbert’s book (Workman Publishing 2014). The asterisk is because the book also puts Breakfasts, Desserts, and Snacks…

Asparagus season is coming and here’s a great way to celebrate its arrival. While a frittata sounds rather fancy, it’s a very easy dish to make. Far simpler than flipping an omelette, it’s wildly versatile too.  For this version, I added shallots and cremini mushrooms…

In keeping with our vow to eat less meat and experiment with a more plant-based diet, I was delighted to have found the bones of this recipe in Food and Wine. It’s pure vegetarian, a wonderful balance of textures and flavors with just a shot…
