A few weeks ago I heard someone mention putting pasta in a frittata (I think I was watching a cooking show on TV, but I can’t remember)… I was skeptical. I am one of those people who is picky about the textures of my food… So, I wasn’t sure about pasta with cooked eggs.

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 [...]

On a cold, windy January day, nothing beats a nice hot bowl of soup. Right?
Last week, I made a big batch of shredded beef in my slow cooker. After having the leftovers a few times, I knew I needed to re-purpose the leftovers and come up with something new. It’s been pretty cold here (and pretty [...]

This is another dish that I wasn’t too sure about as I formed the recipe in my head…
I’m really not much of a greens person in general. Lettuce, spinach, arugula, kale, chard, collards… You name it, I will probably turn my nose up at it. I do eat them all, but given the choice between [...]
