Yet another good launching point from Everyday Food: Great Food Fast. I omitted most of the oil and all of the butter called for, and I cooked this in the oven, but I think the grill would add a great extra dimension of flavor. We added a little ...

Another winner inspired by Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast. This soup was easy and very flavorful with a`few additions - more garlic and some traditional Mexican spices. This was a little too brothy - next time I think I'll only add one cup of water, if that.

This is classic Spanish home cooking at its best - simple ingredients come together to make a dish greater than the sum of its parts. I've been seeing recipes for these around a lot recently, and finally decided to make one myself. My primary inspiration came from Elise ...

Yeah, cheesy title :-P I'm not sure when Shaun and I first heard the word "cherryaki," but the internet says it's from a pepto bismol commercial, which rings a jingle bell in my memory, and at any rate it's been a running joke with us for some ...

This is a quick and easy meal. I'd ordinarily have made some pasta, but today we just had the shrimp along with some sauteed zucchini. I was going for scamp and based this off of an Ina Garten recipe, but while this was good, it didn't match up ...
