Blue Cheese and Bacon Braised Trout

When we visit my in-laws’ cabin in Blooming Grove, Pennsylvania, the guys do a lot of fishing.  (Usually, after I catch one fish, I say I am good for the year!)  Some of the fishing is done from a row boat in the lake, but most is done casting from the shores of one of…

Foot Bridge Grilled Chicken (also known as A Third-A Third-A Third Chicken)

A flavor-packed marinade with just three basic ingredients makes this oldie-but-goodie ideal for both busy weeknights and casual backyard entertaining. I always prepare more than I need the first night, as leftovers are delicious cold, reheated, and as a leveled-up base for your favorite chicken salads. The marinade works beautifully with vegetables too. Over the…

Sweet Cherry & Feta Quinoa with Peach Vinaigrette

A light, flavor-packed salad that’s delightful paired with virtually any grilled protein but stands alone as a complete vegetarian meal. For a vegan alternative, simply omit the feta. And try substituting dried cherries or cranberries when the fresh cherry season has ended. 🍒     Every summer, I make several varieties of homemade jam that we enjoy…

Cherry Crisp (Gluten-Free)

I had the pleasure of having a helper in my kitchen the other day.  As much as I love it when my boys lend an occasional hand in the kitchen, it was a treat to have a female assistant this time around!  Heather Green is an aspiring photographer who, at age 12, started her own…

California Potato Salad

Buttery avocado, juicy tomatoes, and a bit of crisp bacon will shake up your potato salad routine for a light yet filling spin on the classic dish.     This absolutely delicious reader recipe was sent to me by Leola, Pennsylvania native Nancy Irvin James, who mentioned that the recipe got its name because she developed it…

Classic Strawberry Jam

The quintessential flavor of homemade strawberry jam is easy to achieve thanks to these simple instructions! This is the recipe my grandmother always used for her strawberry jam. It’s traditional strawberry jam at its best. The taste and color when freshly made can’t be beat. Opening a jar in the cold winter months provides the…

Homemade Ricotta

When cheese is made, the leftover whey is used to make ricotta.  In general, to create cheese, live cultures (a fancy name for bacteria) are typically added to fresh milk.  This starts a fermentation process that results in the milk separating into curds and whey.  Depending on the type of cheese being made, the curds…

Sesame Peanut Noodles

I have two favorite preparations for noodles in a peanut sauce so, before I chose one for this space, I made them both for dinner recently.  My family declared a tie in the side-by-side comparison.  They were no help!  It almost came down to a coin toss, but ultimately, I chose this recipe because I…

Millet Breakfast Porridge

Looking to add new grains to your diet? A hearty, wholesome bowl of millet has a light, nutty flavor and offers make-ahead convenience.   Since I recently introduced millet to the repertoire of grains included on this website, I felt compelled to include a few tasty ways to use it!   I began with a Millet…

Hoisin Beef Skewers (or Whole Flank Steak)

Prep-ahead convenience, versatility, and appealing flavor make this recipe a go-to for easy weeknight grilling and weekend entertaining.    Iโ€™m the type of person who thinks about dinner as I am eating breakfast. So, it may not be surprising that I ponder what to cook for my newspaper column up to a month in advance!…

Spring Millet Salad

This springy salad is equally delicious served warm, chilled, or room temperature. And though you could replace the millet with couscous or quinoa, the tiny grain has a mild, corn-like flavor that offers a great way to mix things up.   As I continue to experiment with recipes using millet, I have made variations of…

Baked Greens with Mushrooms and Blue Cheese

As my garden grows and local market stands overflow with spring greens, I have been diving deeper into one of my two assigned food trends:  bitter greens.  For those who may not have read previously, I am on a yearlong journey with Sargento Cheese, developing recipes and exploring the food trends that were developed by…
