This is quite possible the easiest chicken recipe, but it’s so delicious and devoured every time. Make sure to use lots of mushrooms because they are the best part! I like baby bella mushrooms, but you could also use shitake, cremini, white, or a mix. The recipe can be doubled or tripled so it’s a […]

Cholent Cook-off Champion!
Sorry I’ve been MIA, but I’m getting married next month so things have been a little crazy. I probably won’t have much time to post between now and then, but bear with me, I’ll be back in full force in September 🙂 A few weeks ago I went to a Jewish leadership conference, where, among […]
Smoky Turkey Chili w/ Sage
Before you say anything, I realize this is my second recipe in a row using sage (in my kitchen it’s my third: I made a batch of savory and delicious sage pumpkin muffins). This is one of the ways I save money–I take an ingredient that I won’t use up in one recipe (like fresh […]
Turkey & Cabbage (Awesomeness)
(Disclaimer: I had trouble naming this dish, so AK helped out… :)) Hard economic times mean a lot of people have to cut their food budgets. Luckily, there are plenty of cheap, fresh ingredients that are filling and healthy, but you get a lot of bang for your buck so they won’t put a dent […]
It’s Giveaway Time! (Homemade Vegetable Stock)
Things have been so busy I haven’t had as much time to cook or blog, but I had the day off for Veterans Day so I finally had time to try out my new chinois, graciously gifted to me by Webstaurant Store, a leading restaurant equipment and supply site that has so many things even […]
White Wine & Ginger Braised Chicken & Radishes
The first time I had a cooked radish, it took me a while to even figure out what I was eating because the concept was so foreign to me. Since that time, I’ve experimented with cooking radishes in a variety of ways, but I think my favorite is braising them. It soothes the bitterness while […]
Sesame-Soy Tofu w/ Asian Mustard Greens
I was at Shoppers last week and was pleasantly surprised to see that they had expanded their Asian vegetable section! They had lot of different sizes of bok choy (including teeny baby ones the size of my thumb!), and Asian mustard greens which I just had to try. They are a lot more mild than […]
One Pot Wonder: Dutch Oven Chicken & Rice
One-pot dishes are the best. You throw in a whole bunch of ingredients for a complete meal, and you only have to wash one pot (fine, maybe a spoon, knife and cutting board too)! Pretty much any combination of vegetables, grain/legumes and protein can work so feel free to be adventurous! If you don’t have […]
20 Below: Basil, Ginger & Garlic Stuffed Chicken
Upon request (and somewhat of a challenge) from one of my lovely readers, I’m going to start a series of “20 Below” posts where I will highlight an entire meal for 4 people that costs less than $20 ($5.00 per person). I hope all of you penny pinchers enjoy these posts–and if anyone else has […]
Dinner Party Main Dish: Crock Pot Spice-Rubbed Chicken w/ Garlic, Onions & Blood Oranges
I don’t use my crock pot nearly enough, so I decided to make a crock pot chicken for my main dish. I layered the bottom of the crock pot with sliced onions and baby potatoes (red bliss, purple & yukon), stuffed the chicken (under the skin and inside the cavity) with sliced blood oranges, onions […]
