Apple Honey Barbecue Glaze
My husband used to be the only griller in our house. I wouldn’t go near that gas-operated thing when he bought it, proclaiming the assault on the tried and true charcoal grilling method that has been used for years. Apparently, I’ve changed. In the past two weeks, I have learned how to start the grill, [...]
ARF: Fiddlehead Greens Salad
I was wandering the produce section of a local supermarket . . . I do that a lot . . . and came across these interesting greens right next to the sugar snap peas. “Fiddlehead greens,” the package proclaimed. They weren’t too expensive ($2.50 or so, for the package) so I decided to pick them [...]
WHB: Beet Greens Bruschetta
Check out Kalyn’s Kitchen later for a round-up of Weekend Herb Blogging, a fun event where we learn new recipes for great herbs. I made some yummy beets earlier this week, but it felt wasteful to just toss the beet greens. But I have never cooked them before and was nervous. After searching and searching, [...]

Stacked Steak Asiago Sandwiches
This sandwich idea came to me when I had a few sandwich steaks laying around and I wasn’t sure what to do with them besides cook them. After a little poking around I decided that using some Asiago, tomatoes and some yummy crunchy homemade fried onion straws could be the start of a beautiful sandwich. [...]
Savory Ham Napoleon
I promised something unique. Something different. Something unusual. And now, I am delivering. This was a brainstorm of mine one evening. You see, I set out to buy some puff pastry dough at the grocery store. In my madness, I bought Phyllo dough instead. Could we talk about more different? Phyllo is thin sheets of [...]
Rainbow Stir-Fry
There I was, with my detailed list in hand, walking with a purpose through Super Stop and Shop. I just needed to grab one tomato and some fruit and I would be through with the produce section. But as I rounded the corner near the tomatoes it caught my eye. In all it’s purple magnificence, [...]
