Chile Crisp Fettuccini Alfredo with Spinach

The creamy and subtly spicy Chile Crisp Fettuccini Alfredo with Spinach is outstandingly good. The chili crisp gets sizzled in butter before adding cream and parmesan cheese. Chili crisp is a condiment of oil infused with peppers, onions, and garlic, and is satisfyingly crispy, and crunchy. This recipe will be on repeat.

This Creamy Pasta with Broccoli and Bacon is quick and a wonderful weeknight dinner. It's sure to satisfy your whole family. Sun-dried tomatoes give it a tangy and subtly sweet flavor, which pairs well with the saltiness of the bacon. You can also add chicken breast if you want to add more protein.

Leek and Potato Soufflé With Ham and Fontina

I made this Leek and Potato Soufflé With Ham and Fontina. We have made Gruyère Cheese and Chive Soufflé for over 32 years. This leek and potato version is less of a soufflé and more of a fluffy potato dish. The leeks and ham elevated the flavor of the potatoes. If you’re afraid of making a soufflé, this is a good place to start. The potatoes make it less delicate, so it’s less likely to fall.

One-Pot Pasta With Ricotta and Lemon

This One-Pot Pasta with Ricotta and Lemon from The New York Times is a mixture of ricotta and Parmesan, with the zest and juice of one lemon. It's light and refreshing and goes perfectly while watching Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy on CNN. I find it absolutely impossible to watch it without eating some Italian food...

Chicken Luzon

This Chicken Luzon apparently is a recipe from Brennan's in New Orleans, though it's no longer on the menu. Regardless of where this recipe originated, it's really good. The chicken is coated in a rub, simmered in a creamy sauce, and served on a bed of linguini. It's quick and easy to make.

Corned Beef Casserole

This Corned Beef Casserole has layers of potatoes, corned beef, thinly sliced shallots, brussels sprouts and I topped it off with some Irish cheddar cheese. I have to say this was so good that I'm not sure I will ever go back to making it the traditional way. It can be made ahead ready for the oven later in the day.
