This was a very easy and flavorful meal. I was making a Costco trip today, mostly to get aluminum foil, which I failed at. They're doing some re-jiggering and have a large section of what used to be freezer aisles cordoned off and empty. The freezer rows ...

Another recipe inspired by Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast (Can you detect a theme this month? :-P We went through these two cookbooks at the beginning of the month looking for good protein and veggie ones and went with it!). As usual, I upped the ...

Yet another take-off from an Everyday Food: Great Food Fast recipe. This was a very tasty take on chicken with some traditional Tuscan flavors. The fresh lemon juice lent a nice bright touch. I only had time to marinate it for about 30 minutes tonight, but longer ...
