Cheesy Broccoli and Rice Casserole
A casserole — I know. Casseroles get a bad rap. Most of the casseroles I’ve encountered deserve it though. Canned soups, canned vegetables, processed cheeses — no wonder I look back on the 70′s and shudder — it wasn’t only because my mom dressed me in plaid pants and subjected me bowl haircuts on the kitchen table (I’m not bitter). Casseroles….they can damage you for a long time.

Creamy Chicken & Wild Rice Soup
I should have titled this “Cheater’s Chicken and Wild Rice Soup” but I didn’t want to scare off any of my foodie friends. You probably know by now I’m (mostly) all about cooking real food from scratch, and I generally steer away from “convenience” foods – not because I think there’s a single thing in the world wrong with them, I just enjoy the process of cooking from scratch. Usually. But I knew cold and rainy weather was on the way, and that got me dreaming of one of my favorite recipes from my motherland: Minnesota Wild Rice Soup.

Recipe Revisit: Southeast Asian Style Pork Chops with Jasmine Rice and Carrot Slaw
You might recognize this recipe — if you’ve been reading this blog for more than two years, that is — and by now you know I wouldn’t hit you with a re-run if it wasn’t something I really, really liked. It was absolutely my intention to share a new recipe today. But I stumbled upon this one and I couldn’t resist making it again!

Easy Jambalaya
Here’s a simple one-pot dinner – the perfect meal for a busy school night. I think it tastes far more complex than the amount of work required to pull it together, and I’m also of the opinion that (like many things), it gets better the longer it sits. My kitchen smells so good right now!

Risotto with Corn, Tomatoes, and Basil
When I think of the perfect dish for a warm August evening, it would absolutely include the following ingredients: corn, tomatoes, and basil. Hence, today’s dish. This risotto is all about summer flavors and would be the perfect accompaniment to any grilled main course – I’m thinking my favorite herbed grilled shrimp, or seared salmon fillets, or even a big, thick steak.

Scallop Risotto
I had a spending splurge yesterday. I bought something that was really, really, mindblowingly expensive. And don’t tell my husband, but I would totally buy it again…but hopefully, I won’t have to for a while. Any guesses?

Honey & Soy Glazed Salmon
Okay, in case you were worrying, I’m back in check with my healthy eating. I know you were all just waiting around, fretting over whether or not I was still lagging behind the healthy eating wagon, but – good news! I’m back, baby. Fired up, too. However, I could fall off said wagon at any second though, because as I write this it’s nearing happy hour … and I do love ‘me a nice glass of wine when the punks are done with their homework. I swear, fourth grade math flat stresses me out.

Homestyle Chicken & Rice
This chicken and rice could possibly be the best part about winter, it’s that good. I know that’s a strong statement, but I defy you (wait, that sounds confrontational – and I’m definitely non-confrontational!). I mean, I challenge you not to like it. Or, I challenge you to like it? Wait. Now I’m just confusing myself.

Shrimp Fried Rice
Even though I consider myself to be one of Sendik’s greatest fans, there are some days when I just plain don’t feel like putting on lipstick and going to the store. I hope this doesn’t lower your opinion of me. While on most days, I do so adore going grocery shopping, sometimes I just don’t have it in me.
Yesterday was one of those days… I just. Couldn’t. Do it.

Simple Supper
Good Monday afternoon! What a terrific weekend it was — great weather, good food, and fun times spent with some of my favorite people. The only bummer is that the Packers lost, but what an exciting game! I had it on in the kitchen while I was prepping this delicious Sunday supper.
