Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Roasting the Brussels Sprouts brings out the sweetness. The balsamic reduces to make a yummy caramelized glaze.

Avocado Pesto Stuffed Peppers
I love Jalapeno poppers, & these Avocado Stuffed Peppers are the non-spicy (healthier!) recipe. With only 3 ingredients, super simple to make, and always a hit.

Butternut Tomato sauce
I paid more than $6 for a jar of gourmet pasta sauce, but after reading the ingredients I realized it was pretty simple. Adding defrosted butternut squash--the whole package with a quart jar of homemade or quality prepared tomato pasta sauce--couldn't be easier. Not only does this add a great nutritional punch, but its a complex flavor and nice thickness that adds a lot to homemade sauce or baked pasta dishes.

Kale & Quinoa Salad
All winter my favorite dish was "greens and beans." That general description allows for lots of variation, and we tried 'em all. For spring (and a hot day that felt like summer), I wanted a new, fresh salad that was substantial enough to stand up to grilled meat while still tasting light and bright. Kale, of course, is the miracle food of the moment (during a recent visit, a friend told me "every restaurant in Brooklyn has a kale salad"), and quinoa probably is too. Anyway, both offer earthy flavor with lots of protein and nutrients.

Spinach with artichoke
I was trying to spruce up a side dish of spinach, and since my kids like artichokes, I thought adding those would be great.

Chorizo, Mozzarella and Vegetable Mini Pots
My father gave me two beautiful Le Creuset mini-casserole pots. They've been sitting collecting dust in my cupboard for six months now because I couldn't figure out what to do with them. This Bank Holiday weekend I thought I would invite a friend over and see if I could come up with some way to use them. The resulting mini casserole seemed to go down pretty well so I thought I would post it here. Forgot to take after photos so an in-progress shot will have to do.

Brown butter ramps
The hill behind my friend's house is covered in gorgeous ramps each spring, which she generously shares with me. Since I never know when a bunch of ramps will show up at my back door, I've developed a way to use them that's quick, easy, and goes well with anything I'm making for dinner.

Post-holiday artichokes braised in sweetened red wine vinaigrette
So I'd just got back from holiday and had been to the market for supplies. When I got home, however, I realised that despite having bags full of fresh veg I had very little to draw them together with. What to do? Well, get happy with the vinegar, oil, garlic and honey and braise those gorgeous, violet lovelies, of course! The secret ingredient being the cynarin in the artichokes that makes everything around them taste sweet - yes, even vinegar ...

Simple Glazed Carrots
The preparation of the carrots is very specific, so stay on track. Once cooked, the carrots are delicious and addictive. Slightly adapted from Martha Stewart

grilled courgettes with fresh mint

Charred Carrots with Orange Peel and Mint
A lot of people hate cooked carrots, I imagine because of the bland school lunch variety that has been boiled within an inch of it's life. Fair enough. But I believe this crispy and sweet version would be enough to convert even the most devout hater. Roasted at high heat until they are blistered and tender crisp, the orange peel highlights their sweetness, and the mint brings and element of irresistible freshness.

There really isn't anything earth shattering about this recipe other than it is really comforting. Creamed fennel and leeks are a wonderful pair.

Fennel and grapefruit salad
This isn't much of a "recipe", but I've made this salad 3 times this week and it's so delicious and refreshing that it never gets old. If you've never eaten this you must try it and you might be convinced this is the best way to eat fennel. I'm sure that this is a classic combo and similar recipes are out there but this is how I make it with the least amount of effort.

The idea for this salad marinated in my head for a few weeks after I saw a recipe for a citrus and onion salad. While shopping recently for fresh produce I spotted some gorgeous blood oranges and immediately wanted to go home and try to create my own version of this colorful combination.
