This dish started out with a coupon for a bag of “Chopped Rappi.” I like clipping coupons… It’s a great way to save money on groceries, helping to keep our grocery bill down. I get ideas from coupons once in a while, too. Coupons often remind me of products I haven’t used in a while, and [...]

Pumpkin Ricotta Ravioli
I find that there is something relaxing and soothing about making pasta by hand. I’m not Italian (but sometimes think I should have been), and making my own pasta is my way of channeling my inner Italian grandmother.
Ever since we planned our February Boston trip, I had been looking forward to the butternut squash ravioli [...]
Spinach, Sage, and Prosciutto Stuffed Pork
On the Sunday after Thanksgiving, I planned on making this stuffed pork tenderloin with the parmesan roasted potatoes that I made for Gourmet Unbound. I wasn’t feeling great, though, and the pork tenderloin never happened. So, about a week later, I finally got around to giving it a shot, but it turned out to be one [...]
Butternut Squash Lasagna
You may have noticed that things have slowed down here a at My Kitchen Addiction in the last week or two… I’m afraid it’s a direct result of the fact that life is a bit crazy at the moment (and not slowing down anytime soon) as I am trying to get ready for Christmas! I’m [...]
Spaghetti Squash-sagna

I was determined to find a good one, since it was the first official month of Gourmet, Unbound. I stumbled across this recipe for Peppermint Patties from the December 2007 issue, and I knew [...]
Butternut Squash Soup with Parmesan and Sage
A few weeks ago, Kelsey of the Naptime Chef asked me to participate in a virtual dinner party to celebrate the release of Park Avenue Potluck Celebrations, a collection of entertaining recipes from those who do it best. The proceeds of the cookbook benefit Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and the fight against cancer.
I was thrilled [...]
Italian Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
My yellow lab loves to help in the garden. She chews on the weeds and helps me dig holes. She also loves to help pick vegetables.
Yes, you heard me correctly… My dog loves her veggies!
Last summer, it was my cucumber plant that she ambushed. This summer, she discovered squash… Yellow squash, spaghetti squash, pumpkins… She picks [...]
Baked Seafood and Lemon Herb Pasta
You may be wondering, “What’s special about baked seafood?” and rightfully so.
I like to try new ingredients when I cook, but seafood is one thing that terrifies me in the kitchen. So, the special thing about this dish is that I managed to make a respectable seafood dish for dinner – one that both my [...]
