You know what’s nice about Japanese eggplant? They are as easy as they are beautiful! This purple-hued, thin-skinned beauty is perfectly palatable after a quick stir fry in some healthy oil.

I always get the best inspiration from my local farmstand. When I saw the generous size and perfect shape of these peppers I knew they were for stuffing. These …
Eggplants are mysterious veggies. I often look at them and wonder what to make. I know they are great fried and in stir-fry. I’ve seen them used in lasagna and other Italian-style dishes. But for some reason I just pass them up anyway. When I do buy them they have a somewhat daunting presence in …

All hail Caesar! No, really… is there a better salad in all of history?! I think not. My life would surely be incomplete without my beloved Caesar salad. The simplicity of the crisp romaine salad is the perfect palette for the bold flavors of the intense lemon, garlic, Parmesan, and anchovy dressing. I guess if …
This is a super-easy pastured pork sausage to make — just ground pork and dry spices! I love this recipe for its versatility. Whether you want to serve it up as patties for breakfast, with biscuits and gravy for lunch, or on top of pizza for dinner it will not let you down! It’s hard …
Do you remember that delicious FIRE ROASTED TOMATILLO SALSA recipe I shared a while back? Well, I put some of that salsa to good use here. I was vacationing up on Vancouver Island in beautiful British Columbia and we made a point to eat fresh fish every day. We had visited several farm stands and …
