Another winner from the Smitten Kitchen, but this time from the cookbook, not online. Like Deb’s spouse, my husband also doesn’t care for fruit with his meats, but since her hubby loved it, I thought I’d give it a try. William’s verdict – home run! I made lemony roasted parsnips to go with the chicken….

Italian Stuffed Cabbage
Once again, I’m modifying a recipe from Smitten Kitchen so that it’s gluten and dairy free. I thought they turned out quite well, but William thought the tomato sauce overpowered the stuffed cabbage….but then, he has a think about tomatoes and cabbage, so I don’t think he’d ever be happy with a traditional stuffed cabbage…
Fruity Breakfast Bread Pudding
Tonight, I had breakfast for dinner. Hubby was out and I didn’t want to make anything too difficult for just me. I had come across a couple of baked French toast recipes last week. I couldn’t make up my mind which one to try…the healthy Baked Peach French Toast or the Cinnamon Crumbled Baked French…
Baked Oatmeal Cups
I found this recipe on the Money Saving Mom site and adapted it to be dairy-free. I tried one and loved it! So glad I made the full batch – I can now throw them in the freezer and pull them out as I need them for breakfast. I only have to pop them in…
Apple Sharlotka
Since I was making Russian beef borscht for Christmas eve, I started looking for a Russian dessert. I found an apple sharlotka recipe online….and knew it had to be good since it had over 658 comments! I had never seen so many comments to a single post on a food blog. The only thing I…
Rutabaga Hash
Rutabagas are one of those vegetables that I have wanted to make more often, but was clueless about how to prepare them, other than roasting. One of my favorite radio personalities, Lynne Rosetto Kasper, posted a Rutabaga Hash with Onions and Crisp Bacon on her website, The Splendid Table. As soon as I saw it,…
Basque Bean Stew
This recipe comes for the Basque area of Spain and is a nice hearty bean soup for those chilly autumn days. Ingredients: 1 lb. fabada beans, dry 10 cups water 1 onion, diced 4 cloves garlic, minced 8 oz. Serrano ham, chopped (I used end pieces since they are cheaper) 8 oz. chorizo sausage, chunked…

Zesty Lentil Salad From Turkey

Masala Lamb Chili with Kohlrabi and Kale
After harvesting kohlrabi from my garden, I was thinking it might pair well with the lamb stew meat I had purchased from Whole Foods, so I went online to search for a recipe. I found several for stuffed kohlrabi using ground lamb, but that didn’t interest me. Finally, I stumbled upon a recipe by someone…
