We’re lucky enough to live across from a Whole Foods Market. Before you anti-establishment cooks ream me out for not shopping at a reeeeal market, I’ll tell you that I love buying the fresh, aromatic ingredients that any local purveyor has to sell me.

I do not remember under what circumstances I made this recipe up. It doesn’t sound like it would be as good as it is, but for some reason I tried it once upon a time. I do know that I’ve made a few different incarnations of it in the last couple of years, and they [...]

I’m going to let you in on a secret. Corn.
Grilled corn is such a simple, versatile side dish that it gets it’s own post. Jealous? Whenever I’m short on time and need a “veg”, grilled corn is a solid go-to. It’s cheap, easy and you can dress it up any way you like. Yes, I [...]

Although a rice dish, risotto is soooo much more than a side. It’s creamy, comforting texture and it’s ability to hold flavors and ingredients grant risotto admission to my party.
Having missed about 25 good years of risotto eating, I’ve been trying to make up for lost time. In the grand scheme of things, risotto takes [...]

I. Love. Seafood. That’s really all I need to write for this post. That’s how much I love it. There’s nothing more to say. In fact, if you loved it as much as I do, you would’ve stopped reading by now…just threw your hands up and went out somewhere.
This crispy, lemony shrimp is delicious and [...]
