Gluten-Free Southern Fried Chicken

I’m not sure how logical this was, but I’m heading back to Charleston, SC on vacation for a few days, and decided cooking fried chicken would help me get ready for the South. Now I’m a little fried food out, pre-trip, but it was definitely worth it. This chicken, while

Garlic-Scape Stuffed Burger with Tsaziki Sauce

I’m on a bit of a home-cooked burger kick right now. I love me a good burger, and buy my meat in bulk from a farm store that has great deals on bulk chicken and grass-fed beef. So, here’s another Sunday night burger, perfect for summer. This is a super

Father’s Day Grass-Fed Burgers with Green Garlic Aioli

Happy Father’s Day Dad! Thank you for all you’ve done for me, and for instilling your love of food in me. Not sure if I’d be doing this without you! If you continue to help taste test, I’ll continue to experiment. We had a fairly low-key Father’s Day, since we

Garlic Scape, Pea Tendril, and Bacon Omelette

Hi friends. I’m sorry for neglecting you. You see, we started spending time together back in the dead of winter – actually, wait, bad excuse seeing as we didn’t have winter this year. Anyways. We got together at a time of year where there’s a lull, and I needed to

Duck Confit Ravioli with Swiss Chard and Mushroom Butter Sauce

I’m going to make this post short and sweet, because the point is a quick & easy dinner utilizing local, in-season ingredients, so you can utilize your precious time. The best part is, most of the work is already done for you in the form of Valicenti Organico pasta! This

Fresh Fish Tacos, Homemade Corn Tortillas, and Elderflower Margaritas

It’s been an uncharacteristically warm New England spring, so I thought I’d celebrate with some tacos and margaritas! Below is the pollock that I got from Cape Ann Fresh Catch, my second week participating in the Community Supported Fishery (CSF). I signed up for seven weekly pick-ups of 4-6 pounds

Carrot & Beet Energizer

This juice is perfect to have mid-afternoon, when you’re dragging a bit and need a pick-me-up. It’s chock full of vitamins and antioxidants, so it’ll give you plenty of energy to finish your day strong. Although there is sugar in beets and carrots, it’s minimal and this will definitely keep

Taza Chocolate Chili

I love any kind of event, like a potluck, where guests have to bring a dish. I think it’s so fun to see what people come up with and what flavors they like the most. To bring in the spring, a friend recently hosted a chili cook-off. I was impressed

Green Lemonade

So, as some of you may know, I recently got a juicer and won’t shut up about it. I’ve honestly used it over 10 times since getting it less than a week ago. I’m just amazed at the yummy, healthy drinks I can make with it – and also the

Cilantro and Coconut Roasted Chicken with Golden Oyster Mushrooms

I’ve always loved mushrooms, ever since I was little. My dad used to make big dishes of scrambled eggs on Sunday mornings, and my favorite part was the sautéed mushrooms. They’re just so meaty and flavorful, and they really enhance any dish they’re in. This week at the Newburyport Farmer’s
