Farmers Market Parmesan Herb Roasted Veggies
I’m so happy this time of year. There’s something so beautiful about fresh from the garden veggies and herbs. Throughout this past winter and spring we’ve been enjoying Parmesan Herb Roasted Potatoes. Why not show our baby squash and spring onions the same kind of love?! Continue reading »

Someday I think I’d like to do an entire recipe series on ‘How to make this from that.’ In other words, how to enjoy dinner on day one, then turn the leftovers into a completely new meal (or two) the following days. Our Roasted Veggie Pot Pie {with Herbed Biscuit Crust} is simply Roasted Veggie & White Bean Chowder with a heavenly layer of comfort baked on top. Continue reading »

This Inside Out Fresh Herb Omelet was my Healthy Choice post-workout meal.
Four weeks ago today I arrived at the office with workout clothes in hand (after taking 4 months off). I was committed to getting back into an exercise routine and knew I would need the encouragement of teammates to keep me on track. So when the lunchtime walking crew lined up to head out, I followed right along. Well actually I lagged behind a good bit, but I did it. A 2.61 mile power walk in 40 minutes. Continue reading »

Roasted Cauliflower Steaks {with Herbed Ricotta & Tomato Sauce}.
I can’t recall the last time I was so excited about a recipe. I mean I’m really, really excited about this one. Over the past several months we’ve been perfecting Parmesan Herb Roasted Potatoes. That’s culinary talk for we’ve been eating them every chance we can. Last night it hit me. Why not turn this lovely head of cauliflower into Parmesan Herb Roasted Cauliflower Steaks.

Grilled Swordfish with Lima Bean & Herb Butter.
I haven’t always loved Swordfish. I remember it being dry and underwhelming, so frankly I avoided it. Too many other choices that I knew I loved. I’ve shared recently that fish speak to me. There’s really no other way to explain how I can approach a massive row of freshness and choose….that one, I’ll have that piece of fish. That’s what happened the day I fell in love with Swordfish.

“We can sleep til we get up.” That’s what we love about Saturday mornings. We did at least until we got a puppy. Now we “sleep til Scrappy Thyme gets up.” So while I lay in bed this morning waiting for her to call to us, I was thinking about breakfast. And how I might use up the mother load of leftover fresh salad ingredients that had taken over my fridge.
That’s when I decided to make a Veggie Frittata. Continue reading »

Cod & Potatoes Poached in Milk {atop a Scotch Egg Sauce}.
The day started with a ‘fresh as can be’ 1 1/2 lb. cod fillet. No plan for it, just a piece of fish too good to pass up. What I was craving, quickly became my motivation for making this dish. What I was craving, would be made from the leftovers. I set out on a mission to find the right recipe, that the next day, would beg to be turned into…Fish Chowder. This brilliant non-plan to accommodate my craving, almost went very wrong. Continue reading »

From THE moment I saw these Parmesan Herb Roasted Potatoes by The Fountain Avenue Kitchen I knew. I knew we would become very close. These potatoes and I. The Parmesan cheese creates a crispy coating on the tender well seasoned potatoes. Heavenly really. Continue reading »
