Today's dinner was inspired by this one on AllRecipes. It was indeed fast, and I'm sure it would be kid friendly. Just the thing for a couple slightly upset tummies :-P I served this with some quick braised brussels sprouts. Since they were so small, I ...

I've done the Italian Stuffed Pork Loin before with a full pork loin, but today I did it with just a pork tenderloin, cutting the filling ingredients in half. It cooked in about 45 minutes instead of over an hour, and was just as good :-) ...

Inspired by a good bowl of cioppino at Anthony's in Everett and several recipes online (i.e. Cooking Light, Allrecipes, Elise's Simply Recipes, and Giada of the Food Network), I've made my own version of cioppino, filled with great local seafood. I love living near the ocean :-D ...

Chicken bruschetta for dinner tonight. I put in a bunch of extra zucchini since I had a big pile from my last CSA box. Tasty and warming for one of the first days that felt like fall :-)
