When I have one foot holding onto summer and the other reaching for fall, I turn to roasted red peppers as a satisfying dish. This marinated roasted peppers dish is a perfect example of one of my favorites, as it brings in so many flavors of late summer and early fall. Best of all, it gets party dish bonus points, since it should be made at least a day ahead to allow the flavors to meld. To be honest, here in the mountains we're firmly planted in autumn and seem to be reaching for winter. So ...
Double-Baked Cheese Soufflé with Artichokes
Why Double-Baked Soufflés are the BEST It's been a long time since I've made a soufflé. Like forever. For starters, they collapse so quickly that by the time they reach the table people wonder why I'm serving a pancake for dessert. And there's a lot of fuss around having a clean ramekin top and edge so nothing interferes with the rise. Although really, if they collapse in a nanosecond, does that really matter? So double-baked soufflés, also called twice-baked soufflés, are right up my ...

Green Bean Casserole (Vegetarian Keto Low-Carb)
If you've ever attended a Thanksgiving dinner anytime in the past 50 years, chances are you had a green bean casserole topped with Crispy Fried Onions. But have you eaten a version that's keto-friendly? The answer is - you probably have if it didn't include Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup (sorry, Campbell's). Does that surprise you? It did me. First, a little history... Dorcas Reilly created this classic holiday dish in 1955 when she was working in the Home Economics Department of Campbell's ...
18 Vegetarian Winter Squash Main Dishes for Thanksgiving (and Beyond)
18 vegetarian winter squash main dishes for all through Autumn and Winter. They're not just for Thanksgiving! "What's your favorite winter squash?" I posed this question on my Facebook page recently, and got a huge response. Readers listed everything from the familiar, like butternut squash, to the wildly unfamiliar, like sweet meat and onion squash. As a result, now I want to find them and red kuri squash, to see how it might be different from the rest. Thanks to that informal polling, ...

Cajun Peppers + Cauliflower ‘Grits’
This is a spin on shrimp and grits, a Cajun favorite, using cajun-spiced baby bell peppers and black beans piled on top of cheesy cauliflower grits. Cauliflower rice is my new thing. And since I'm trying to be grain-free for a month (1 week down, 3 to go!), it's been a great substitute in some favorite dishes. This is my latest tinkering with cauliflower rice - and it rocks, you guys! Cauliflower grits! Who knew??!! Although this dish is an easy weeknight dinner - it comes together in ...
Old-Fashioned Potato Gratin | #SundaySupper
This is a traditional, old-fashioned potato gratin my great-grandmother, Mamma, might have made. She was a fantastic baker and cook, and her dinners and brunches were legendary. But this is a dish that invites your own stamp, so feel free to riff away. What we call potato gratin today originated in the Dauphiné region of France as gratin dauphinois, and has as many variations as there are cooks who make it. The original recipe, going back to the late 1700's, calls for thinly sliced raw ...
Brussels Sprouts Gratin with Quinoa
I've yet to meet a gratin I didn't want to marry. Comfortable unpretentiousness, warm and welcoming, and so flexible. Some are stand-alone dishes, needing only a salad to round them out. Others show up as side dishes on a Thanksgiving table. Sometimes they're healthy, sometimes not-so-much. But they always accommodate almost any vegetable, whether it's a root vegetable in winter, squash in autumn, or tomatoes in summer. First: What Actually Is A gratin?? I always thought gratin meant a ...
Mediterranean Cauliflower Salad with Crispy Chickpeas + Miso Dressing
Perfect clean eating dinner. Warm cauliflower salad with crispy chickpeas, sun-dried tomatoes and Kalamata olives, all tossed in a miso dressing. Do you have certain ingredients you always go to? The Italians, IMHO, have this nailed. Tomatoes, pasta, garlic, basil, and Parmesan. Those five ingredients can make several days of meals for me. Nothing against this winning combination, but I have my own favorites I often go to year-round. Cauliflower. Sun-dried tomatoes. Kalamata olives. ...
Easy Buttermilk Cornbread
Sometime last year, I launched a project. A personal challenge of sorts. I wanted to create the best cornbread recipe ever. I know, I know. It doesn't sound like much of a challenge to you. It's not like, say, training for a year to run a marathon. Or writing a book. Or launching a non-profit. No, I needed to keep it real. Truth: I can never resist cornbread. Never. And there must be thousands of recipes out there, all claiming to be the BEST. There are a surprising number of ...
Calabrese-Style Fried Potatoes with Peppers
I was living in Stockbridge, Massachusetts the first time I ate a searing hot pepper. It was one of those long, pointy, skinny numbers popular in Asian dishes. Since it arrived on my plate at a neighborhood Thai restaurant, I figured I was supposed to eat it. Who knew? Seconds after chewing it up and swallowing part of it, a volcano erupted in my stomach all the way up to my throat. Water was absolutely useless. A friend sitting across from me had an untouched Piña Colada in front of ...
