Warm Salad with Grilled New Potatoes
When the weather warms up, I start thinking about lighter foods. The soups and roasts that hit the spot on frigid New England winter days are forgotten in favor of lighter summer fare like fruit, everything grilled and salads. Dinner becomes an art of combining no-cook dishes (can’t heat up the kitchen!) combined with whatever [...]
Grilled Garlic Butter Clams
New England summers have always meant copious amounts of seafood for me. And this year is no different — so as soon as the temperatures hit that comfortable level where grilling outside can be accompanied with eating outside, we picked up some littleneck clams to grill. Our local butcher shop, which also features a nice [...]
Grilled Raspberry Cheesecake Turnovers
When my husband and I bought our house nearly nine years ago, one of the first things we did was to buy a shiny new grill — a good one. We were young and excited and spared no expense on our appliances or grill — and that’s something I am very glad for. We made [...]
Red Wine Marinated Flank Steak with a Side of Food Safety
My husband says that there are things I don’t do simply because I refuse to — not because I can’t but because I won’t. Grilling used to fall high on that list. For a long while, I hid behind not knowing how to (read: not wanting to know how to) light the thing up. Not [...]
Grilled Quesadillas with Pea Shoots
Every so often, a new ingredient gains popularity and you wonder why no one was cooking with it sooner. That’s how I feel about pea shoots. They have that fresh, just-picked flavor and pleasant cool crunch — similar to bean sprouts. When I saw a package of them in Trader Joe’s I couldn’t wait to [...]
Grilled Caesar Chicken Strips
Does this plate look familiar? It should. It’s the same plate from the Herbed Grilled Red Potatoes, just shown at a different angle. Generally, I don’t end up photographing two new dishes at the same time, but when this super simple chicken dish worked out so well that I wanted to share it. But I [...]
Herbed Grilled Red Potatoes
If I could use one word to describe the planting of our garden this year, it would be quiet. In previous years, it’s been a fast and furious effort involving the whole family. Beds were added and a fence installed. Shawn even made a special gate for the garden last year. But this year, it’s [...]
Rethinking Burgers (Super Veggie Beef Burger)
For more than a year, I have barely eaten beef. While I like it, my body isn’t fond of it and I’ve found that avoiding it means that I can live with less bouts of my severe asthma – and less medication. It was a no brainer to eat less of it. That said, I [...]
Grilled Nacho Pizza Recipe: A Pictorial
Last year, I really wanted to master grilling pizza. However, many pies later, I still didn’t have the process down. That all changed when Everyday Food ran a feature on it recently. It totally demystified the whole thing. Amazingly, it seems that grilling pizza is way easier than I ever imagined it could be. Stretch, [...]
Grilled Radish Packets Recipe
Growing up, I always picked radishes out of salads. To me, they were a garnish that shouldn’t be consumed ever. The fierce peppery-ness just didn’t appeal to me at all. But then, a few years ago, I tried Balsamic Sauteed Radishes and it was a complete revelation. The peppery taste of the little, hard, red [...]
