Autumn Apple Salad with Cinnamon Honey Dijon Dressing

Kaitlin — Thu, 18 Sep 2014 12:00:07 +0000

It’s September which means apples are right in their prime season! Although apples are available year-round, most apples ripen in the August-October time frame. I’ve had a craving for apples ever since September began so I was so excited when I was contacted recently about trying an apple variety called SweeTango that I’ve never had... Read More »

Braised Baby Back Ribs and Creamy Polenta with Brussels Sprouts and Pancetta

Kaitlin — Thu, 23 May 2013 11:00:44 +0000

I’ve mentioned on here many times, I really stink at getting an entire meal on the table. I can usually handle making the main dish and then I just scramble to throw a salad together and call it a meal. So when Cooking Planit told me about their app, it was like they had made... Read More »

Seared Scallops and Steak with Manhattan Sauce

Kaitlin — Wed, 01 May 2013 11:00:01 +0000

I tend to make dinner based on what I’m in the mood for and my boyfriend just has to at least pretend to enjoy it. That involves a lot of fish, pasta, and rice which I’m sure can get a bit boring. So I thought it might be nice if I finally made some steak.... Read More »

Scarborough Fair Cornish Game Hens with Risotto

Kaitlin — Thu, 27 Sep 2012 11:00:00 +0000

Do you remember the first recipe you learned how to make? One that was probably so simple, but made you so proud when you had completed the dish? Mine (besides grilled cheese) was a chicken recipe my mom referred to as “Chicken a la Simon and Garfunkel” based on the lyrics in their song Scarborough... Read More »

One of the highlights of the Kennett Square Mushroom Festival was catching a cooking demonstration by Antonia Lofaso of Top Chef. She made this wonderful mushroom and green bean salad with a poached egg and bacon vinaigrette. How fantastic does that sound?

Beet Risotto

Kaitlin — Wed, 18 Jul 2012 11:00:00 +0000

I love the taste of beets, but preparing them is so time consuming that I tend to avoid buying them. Most recipes involving beets require you to roast the beets and then peel them. I came across a recipe for beet risotto in Food and Wine that just cooked the beets on the stove top... Read More »

Snapper with Zucchini and Tomato with Parsley Orzo

My CSA this year allows me to choose 6 items each week to be in my share. Every single time so far, I’ve chosen zucchini as one of the six. I just love it. But with 3-4 pieces of zucchini a week, I am absolutely in search of as many different recipes as I can... Read More »

Kaitlin — Wed, 11 Jul 2012 11:00:00 +0000

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you might have picked up on my obsession with pumpkin and butternut squash. I attempt to limit my gourd intake to the September and October months, but every now and then I still need my fix outside of those months. Butternut squash seems to be more... Read More »

Everyone needs a quick but really impressive meal in their cooking arsenal. My go-to is usually ravioli; it cooks in a few minutes and all you really have to do is make an awesome sauce. You can make the meal in a half hour, and most of the ingredients are relatively easy to have on... Read More »
