Shaun's off at a concert tonight, so I've just been foraging for dinner. I found a little arugula from last week's CSA box that I wanted to use, and I wanted to cook up an egg or two from this week's box as well, so I made this very ...

This recipe is via Ree, of The Pioneer Woman. I had a half pound of fresh baby carrots from last week's CSA box to use, and this was a good recipe to use 'em up. I scaled way down, of course - I only used about 1 tbsp ...

This recipe is inspired by one from Fine Cooking, which is one of my favorite food magazines. They always have good recipes, tested well, explained clearly without being painfully long, and generally with easy to find ingredients.

Another super easy quick dinner tonight. We tried the other new Hillshire Farm sausage today, the Chicken Hardwood Smoked Sausage. This one is just as low in fat as the turkey sausage that we tried earlier, and we liked the taste of this one even better. These ...

This Mexican-inspired chicken is inspired by a similar recipe I saw on Cooking in Cucamonga. The marinade works very well and made for an easy and flavorful meal on the grill for the long holiday weekend. I served this with some refried beans and a tossed green salad.

Tonight's dinner was Island Spiced Pork Tenderloin, from Annie's Eats, sauteed fava beans, and a quick green salad. The pork tenderloin was okay, but if I make it again, I'll cut down on the cinnamon. It just wasn't quite what I was wanting, but it certainly has potential. ...
