Parmesan Crisps with Summer Tomato Salad
Fresh local grown tomatoes inspire me. And they are so flavorful and delicious right now. The farmers’ market is bursting with gorgeous varieties and the growers are quick to share what makes theirs uniquely different. Alas, I must try them all. Parmesan Crisps with Summer Tomatoes make a wonderful appetizer or serve them in place of a salad.

Classic Chicken Marsala
This recipe follows the Classic Chicken Marsala basics but we gave the dish a flavor jumpstart by browning the chicken in sage brown butter.

Caramelized Onion & Zucchini Quiche {Sundays with Shelby}
As I’ve shared before I may have a slight addiction to cooking magazines. And recipes that feature fresh healthy ingredients always catch my attention. My most recent Cooking Light magazine offered this Caramelized Onion & Zucchini Quiche recipe that not only fit the ingredients currently in my kitchen but was a perfect get-my-kid-to-come-for-brunch dish (I’m not above bribery and food seems to work quite well with her).

Gazpacho {Sundays with Shelby}
For me, Gazpacho holds a special place in my heart. There are some foods that evoke emotion and this is one of them for me. Had a great day with my kid! Visited our local “every 3rd weekend antique market” just becuz…. I truly believe Grammy gave us the gift of gab…we couldn’t walk by a booth without engaging the vendor. My kid scored a cast iron tea pot and bartered for a leather vintage bag (90 minute massage = $90 leather bag)!

Parmesan Crisps
Parmesan Crisps are the most delicate and lovely side to a beautiful bowl of soup the world has ever known. They’re also a damn good low-carb snack, bite-sized appetizer vessel or full-sized pasta bowl.

Rubytini Cocktail
Our Served from a Glass category is lacking substance. Which is kinda funny since I was much more of a cocktail creator than foodie not that long ago. I do take requests :) and received a “cocktail” request walking out of the office door on Friday afternoon. Here is my favorite fresh libation.

Not Just Any Saturday Adventure…
We’re approaching the second anniversary of my mom’s passing. I think about her every day and know she, the writer, editor, story teller, photographer would have been a masterful blogger. Every Saturday for many years we would set out on Adventures. While some folks would have simply labeled these outings as running errands….they were much more than that to us.

Boston Baked Beans {A Family Recipe}
When you grow up in New England there are a few recipes that it’s good to have up your sleeve. In the case of Boston Baked Beans my mom not only had it up her sleeve but it was engrained in her memory. I’m eternally thankful that she took the time to write it down for me to share with generations to come.

Chicken & Cashew Lettuce Wraps
Chicken & Cashew Lettuce Wraps. Do you ever pick something up to take a bite and quickly realize there’s no putting it down? It’s just too yummy to stop or too messy to chance a reload. I find this is the case with most cupcakes, wrap sandwiches, corn on the cob, tacos, and definitely lettuce wraps. This dish needs to be eaten at the table, with family & friends, where you can lean over your plate, lick your fingers, and not worry about a napkin until you’ve taken the last bite.

Salmon Burger on Toasted Onion Roll
It’s Monday. Honestly I did not have a What’s for Dinner plan until leaving work at 5:30 pm. Salmon is always a favorite go-to protein for us and readily available. It’s the “if all else fails, we can always have Salmon” and we know it will be a good meal. I recently tried something new with Salmon ~ Salmon Meatballs. They were so moist and flavorful and pop in your mouth get me another good that we had to revisit that recipe.
