Easy Lamb Vindaloo

Indian was the first cuisine I really discovered for myself. When I was growing up, Mom cooked with lots of different flavors, but Indian wasn’t really part of her standard repertoire. She was great with classic American seasonings and was comfortable just about anywhere along the Mediterranean, but food from the countries beyond that inevitably [&hellip

Grace Bender’s Pecan Balls

Grace Bender passed away nearly ten years ago, and her husband, Fred, died this past November. Fred and Grace were both very special to our family. In the late 80’s and early 90’s Fred was one of the senior associates at Saint Luke’s Episcopal Church in Darien, Connecticut, and he and Grace took very good [&hellip

Hummus with Almond Butter

Until working on last month’s Heart Health month video, I never thought of subbing almond butter for tahini in hummus, but I tried it, and I really like it. Here’s why. Almond butter is more readily available. Tahini is showing up more frequently, but you can’t find it just anywhere. Almond butter is easier to work with. [&hellip

As-Simple-As-It-Gets Homemade Tomato Soup

Last week I got a shipment of Londoner cheese – a sharp, tangy cheddar – just begging to be melted. When I asked Andy what I should make, he said he had a craving for grilled cheese with tomato soup. I checked our Three Many Cooks archives for a simple tomato soup recipe, and though we have a [&hellip

Winter Rolls

With the abundance of produce in our CSA, one of my favorite things to make during the warmer months is fresh summer rolls. They’re way more interesting than salad, and the dipping sauces rival good vinaigrette. Pining for those warmer months and missing my rolls, the other day I used winter ingredients (Swiss chard, sweet [&hellip

Almond-Date Blondies

This Sunday, February 16th, is National Almond Day. The reason I know this is because I was asked to do a video promoting February as Heart Health month. Since almonds are naturally heart healthy and their national day is this month, the Almond Board, in partnership with Jarlsberg Lite, was game to sponsor the video. [&hellip

Light and Creamy Pasta Bake with Butternut Squash and Kale

Nearly five years ago I thought we had made the ultimate shift in our diet when we started eating less meat so that we could afford better meat. As long as I could rely on cheese and eggs for the satisfaction factor, giving up meat a good chunk of the time wasn’t that difficult. But [&hellip

Sausage and Kale Stoup with Pumpkin and Farro

Maggy, Sharon, and I are all into stoups right now. In this relentlessly frigid winter of 2014, stoups are a quick, complete, and comforting supper. I suppose their definition is obvious, but for me stoup is a soup so wonderfully thick and chockfull of goodies it’s crossed the border into stew land. I thought stoups [&hellip
