Galettes are so much fun to make. They have crust similar to pie, but since they are free form it is a lot less effort. You still get the wonderful buttery, flaky crust, but in a more rustic form. I have a couple other galette recipes on here you can also try. Spinach and ArtichokeContinue reading “Potato, Bacon and Gruyere Galette”

Thai Chicken Basil Rolls with Hoisin Dipping Sauce
These Thai basil rolls with ground chicken were pretty quick to make, but they have a lot of flavor from the Thai basil, cilantro, ginger, garlic, jalapeno and the dipping sauce. They were tasty and we all enjoyed them. I used raw/cook at home tortillas for the wraps for these and honestly I think theyContinue reading “Thai Chicken Basil Rolls with Hoisin Dipping Sauce”
Chicken in a Pot with Orzo
I used to watch Ina Garten on TV back in college, along with every other cooking show I could find. She was really accessible when I was learning to cook, because her recipes tend to be pretty simple and straight forward. This chicken in a pot with orzo is both of those things. I likedContinue reading “Chicken in a Pot with Orzo”
Spanish Style Tortilla
I have been making this easy cheater Spanish style tortilla for years since I first saw the recipe on Serious Eats. I say cheater because it uses a little trick to save time and effort that I love. Instead of thinly slicing potatoes for the dish, it uses salt and vinegar potato chips! I knowContinue reading “Spanish Style Tortilla”
Italian Stuffed Pork Tenderloin
I’ll admit I was a little bit reluctant to make this recipe. Butterflying and stuffing a pork tenderloin seemed like kind of a lot of effort on a weeknight, but I was pleasantly surprised that it was actually very easy and quick to do. Plus it was delicious!! I really liked this, and it willContinue reading “Italian Stuffed Pork Tenderloin”
Marinated Tofu Sushi Roll Bowls
This is totally my kind of a dinner and I could eat this all the time and be happy. Even though I called this a sushi bowl, there isn’t actually any raw fish. You could add some sashimi though and it would be amazing… I might do that actually next time 🙂 I love tofuContinue reading “Marinated Tofu Sushi Roll Bowls”
Patty Melts
One of my kids likes to watch youTube food videos and give me new cooking ideas, and one those lately was these smashburger patty melts. These were definitely not health food, but they were so delicious! We often eat homemade hamburgers, and my husband grinds the beef for those from chuck, sirloin and short ribs.Continue reading “Patty Melts”
Lasagna Soup with Garlic, White Beans, and Whipped Ricotta
We went out with our neighbors to try a new winery that opened near us last night, so no cocktail today. Instead I’m sharing this recipe for lasagna soup with white beans, garlic, and whipped ricotta that I made for dinner this week. This soup has the flavors of a lasagna, but it is lighterContinue reading “Lasagna Soup with Garlic, White Beans, and Whipped Ricotta”
Marinated Tofu Bánh Mì
I’ve seen variations on a tofu bánh mì online occasionally and my family loves both bánh mì and tofu. I was still a *tiny* bit skeptical about whether this sandwich would really feel like a banh mi without the meat. I am happy to say that we really loved this, and didn’t feel anything wasContinue reading “Marinated Tofu Bánh Mì”
Bindaetteok (Korean Mung Bean Pancakes)
Korean mung bean pancakes (or bindaetteok), are savory pan fried cakes made from ground dried mung beans and a variety of tasty fillings. My favorite is pork/kimchi. This recipe is a combo of my mother-in-law’s recipe and the recipe in the Korean Kitchen cookbook. These are really healthy for you as mung beans have aContinue reading “Bindaetteok (Korean Mung Bean Pancakes)”
