Story behind the recipe I have always loved salmon, but our local Wegman’s took it to a whole new level when they introduced their wild caught salmon. Either I haven’t noticed it before, or I never tasted salmon that good. I am now spoiled with it and can’t go back to […]
Italian Sausage is one of the very few things I always have on hand. I could sing praises to it all day, every day, because it truly deserves it. It is relatively inexpensive, especially when you evaluate what you get. It’s full of healthy fats, it’s delicious and perfectly seasoned, […]
My most recent recipe for Borscht is definitely not a last-minute dish. So, to balance it out, I am sharing a recipe that only has 4 ingredients – including salt! These meatballs are made with ground chicken, and even though they are light, they are filling. Originally, I had planned […]

Inspiration for this recipe comes from Julia Child’s book “Mastering the Art of French Cooking”. I set out to find a reliable chicken recipe that could be adapted to whatever dish I’m making that needed protein. As I made it time after time, I’ve come to rely on a few […]
