I’m always looking for easy side dishes that can double as a main dish. I don’t eat meat much anymore, if ever, so I like to make a side dish that can be my main dish. These sautéed green beans are just the versatile side/main to fit the bill. I like to use fresh haricot […]

Maple Mustard Roasted Chicken
This Maple Mustard Roasted Chicken is the quintessential fall dinner. My family absolutely loves roasted chicken and over the years I’ve practiced and practiced until I’ve perfected it. I loved the idea of using maple in a savory way with the spiciness of English dry mustard. I love the spicy kick ground mustard powder adds. […]
Pumpkin Creme Fraiche Spaghetti with Fried Onions and Sage Leaves
Every so often I feel like a bit of a genius. Today was one of those days. My husband left with the kids to go visit his parents. I was left alone to finish cleaning up the house and get some work accomplished. (Raise your hand if that’s your favorite way to spend a Saturday […]
Eggplant, Chard and Tomato Quinoa Gratin
Yesterday was so lovely. I spent the day catching up on a few things around the house and cooking up a storm. I received my CSA share on Friday afternoon and it’s probably my favorite share yet. It kind of bridges the grey area between summer and fall veggies. There were plenty of root veggies […]

I’ve partnered with Shirley J again. I’m excited to share a gluten-free recipe for Almond Crusted Chicken Cutlets with Creamy Mushroom Leek Sauce with you. It was a huge hit with my family. The sauce is made from Gluten-Free Whisk Bliss. One of the things that can be challenging when you’re gluten-free is modifying […]
Loaded Raw Kale Salad
My husband and I shared this Loaded Raw Kale Salad yesterday for lunch. You guys, my life changed the day I first had a raw kale salad. I don’t remember the exact salad, but I remember thinking, “Oh, okay. I can do raw kale. It’s good.” It was like I could finally be a bona […]
Stewed Eggplant and Tomatoes with Polenta
Ah, the eggplant. To quote Mark Bittman in his book, The Best Recipes in the World, “There is nothing like a simply cooked dish of eggplant. One of the world’s most beloved vegetables and one that several cuisines–Italian, Turkish, and Indian, most notably–treat with near reverence.” Amen, Mr. Bittman, amen. I think Mr. Bittman’s […]
Greek-Style Veggie Pizza
Oh, man. I am really on a pizza kick lately. This Greek-Style Veggie Pizza is one that I really enjoyed making and eating. It’s so full of flavor it will knock you over! Basically it’s a Greek salad on top of a pizza crust. Can that ever be a bad thing? I think not. Let’s […]
Ratatouille Pizza (Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free)
We love Ratatouille in any shape or form. Lately it’s been in pizza form. And as with the original, it’s delicious! This is the third time I’ve made it and it never seems to get old. Ratatouille Pizza is just a fancy way of saying vegetable pizza, I suppose. I leave off the tomato sauce […]
