During our recent visit to NYC, Heidi and I visited Eataly on 5th Avenue to peruse their Italian goods. We both picked up this Busiate pasta and made a plan to each make something different with it…so, for today’s meal I roasted some butternut squash (Zucca) and cooked up some mild Italian sausage (Salsiccia) seasoned with a touch of nutmeg …added a white wine-cream sauce and voilà! A star was born… Continue reading

Now on to today’s Fiesta Friday contribution! Irish Stew is one of the very first dishes I make every year when it starts to get a little chilly in the fall. This is a stew we made at our restaurant many years ago and one that I still make at home today. It is more simple than our restaurant version because I use a condensed consume instead of making a demi-glace that would take 2 – 3 days to make, but it is perfect for my home version.

Here’s a hearty breakfast…perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner! Full of healthy vegetables and tasty sausage…topped with fresh Parmesan. It’s sure to please! Continue reading
I was missing my excellent Grandmother again… (click to read a little more about Dorothy). She used to make Gołąbki for us sometimes. I’ll admit that as a youngster I was not a huge fan, but as an adult I’d really begun to appreciate it. She made the best ever Gołąbki. This is my slightly healthier version of hers… Continue reading
It’s been a very busy time for me over the last few days and cooking has not been a priority! So, in light of the fact I haven’t been cooking, today and Friday I’ll be revisiting two of my favorite meals. Today I’ll be sharing Mushroom & Sage Risotto… Continue reading
This soup is great for summer. Light and refreshing with fresh kale from the garden in a light broth. The red pepper flakes add just the right amount of kick to boost this soup to one of my top 10 soups to eat… Continue reading
I just love creamy polenta. It takes some time to make, so I don’t make it often but when I do…. This time I paired it with a spice sausage and shrimp. What a combo! This dish was so rich and full of flavor I had to stop from wanting more. By adding the kale it really gave this dish nutrition and flavor. Wow! Continue reading
This is one of those dishes that can be served for breakfast, lunch or dinner. On those days when you just want something warm and tasty – nothing too fancy or too much work, this Sweet Potato & Sausage-Egg Hash fits the bill! It’s so filling that if you have it for breakfast you won’t be hungry until supper…so comforting and delicious… Continue reading
We had to redo our pool last year (I recommend salt water, I love it), and put in new retaining walls around the grounds. I had the brilliant idea of surrounding and mounting all sizes of ceramic pots everywhere. Now it is my duty to fill them with flowering plants. All 32 of them! Although this year I am more cognizant of what I’m planting, it is still a lot of work. All that aside, I wanted to order out tonight, but instead… I opened my refrigerator and freezer to take an account of what I could create that was simple and delicious. So here is what was created. My husband thought it was delicious and way better than takeout. I’m beginning to think I spoil him. I hope I am! Continue reading
