Tangy, Roasted Tomatillo Sauce

August 8, 2017

Containers of Tangy Roasted Tomatillo Sauce

A tangy, summery sauce that’s both comforting and refreshing. Versatile enough to use over meats or in vegetarian dishes, this sauce works wonders over steak, chicken and pork; in tacos, salads or rice bowls; as a dipping sauce and more. I like to play this game at the grocery store. I pick one item that I’ve never cooked with or eaten before, buy it, and learn how to do something tasty with it.

Tuscan-Inspired White Bean Tomato Soup

June 22, 2017

Tuscan-Inspired White Bean Tomato Soup

A simple, delicious, rustic soup inspired by the flavors of Tuscany. This recipe makes enough to feed a crowd, but it’s incredible after the flavors mingle in the refrigerator overnight, so leftovers make this great for smaller families and individuals as well. Cannellini beans are one of my favorite foods. That’s probably kind of weird, but it’s true.

How to Roast Peppers in an Oven

December 15, 2016

Oven-Roasted Peppers
