Garlic & Oil Spaghetti with Kale
Again, I started out following someone’s recipe and then I make so many changes, I just make it my own. Toby didn’t love this one so much. He said it was too dry and the kale was bitter. I think … Continue reading
Poppy Seed “Chicken”
Paula Deen. I love you- you are funny and I love to watch you cook, but you know what? None of your dishes ever turn out for me! Why is that?? Take this recipe, for instance. I thought I could … Continue reading

Cheese Tortellini with Asparagus and Olives
This recipe seems so simple, but boy, does it deliver on flavor. I sound like Guy Fieri. This is something you can throw together when you don’t have a lot of time to cook. I was worried that it was … Continue reading

Bay-Rosemary Potato Gratin

My favorite local grocery store, Wegmans, has a magazine they sell (and sometimes give out for free!) that features recipes with stuff you can very handily (is that a word?) buy at their stores. This is one of those recipes. … Continue reading

Mexican Black Bean Lasagna
I make a dish similar to this, except it uses flour tortillas instead of corn, and it doesn’t use ricotta cheese or sour cream. This was good (although not as good as the other dish). It was very easy to … Continue reading

Corn with Lime-Sage Butter
On Wednesday nights I like to grill something outside, since Toby works from home and can get the grill going and stuff ahead of time. So for part of last night’s dinner I planned to grill some corn on the … Continue reading

The Bidens’ Pasta Caprese
I like Joe Biden, and I like his pasta. I try and do one pasta dish a week, and this one sounded light and summery. And it is! I didn’t think the tomato marinade would be enough of a “sauce” … Continue reading
