Chicken & Mushroom Casserole with Crunchy Stuffing Topping
Chicken & Mushroom Casserole with Crunchy Stuffing Topping is a recipe I concocted. To me, texture is key. I love things that are crunchy! I happened to have a half a box of leftover stuffing mix and decided to use it up. You could make this ahead and bake it later. Love that!

Sautéed Japanese Eggplant
Sautéed Japanese Eggplant is a very easy side dish. I made this earlier and served it at room temperature. Everyone LOVED it!
Japanese eggplant is the Western name given to dozens of Japanese eggplant varieties, both heirloom and hybrid. The most common of these varieties are Millionaire and Orient Express, both long, slender oblong shaped eggplants with glossy, purple-black, thin skin. The interior cream colored flesh is spongy and nearly seedless. Japanese eggplant's flavor is mild and because it is nearly seedless it doesn't possess that bitter quality found in Western and Thai varieties.

Chicken with Roasted Peppers & Tomatoes
I made this Chicken with Roasted Peppers & Tomatoes because happened to have some roasted peppers and tomatoes in the pantry. If you want, you could add some olives, capers or artichokes. Jarred roasted peppers are great to have on hand...

Sloppy Bombay Joes
A friend of mine told me about Aarti Sequeira's sloppy joe recipe. It's a sloppy joe with an Indian twist. I consider myself a sloppy joe expert, given that I have made them for hundreds of school children for almost 16 years. These are really delicious and different and actually a bit healthier using ground turkey. I served them with Broccoli Slaw. You've really to try these!

Pasta with Artichokes & Lemon Cream Sauce
As you may have gathered, our family likes anything that's lemony and contains artichokes. I used a bag of frozen artichoke hearts and Trader Joe’s Lemon Pepper Pappardelle pasta.

Purple Baby Artichokes in White Wine and Garlic
These beauties just came from the farmers market. The baby Purple artichoke is more properly and commonly known by its given name, Fiesole. They are easy to prepare, cook and eat because they haven’t developed the fuzzy portion of the choke in the center.

Broccoli Cheddar Quiche
Yesterday, my daughter, Grace, cleaned out the freezer, cleaned the stove, the pantry, etc. She also made dinner - Caprese Salad, Broccoli Cheddar Quiche, and Brownies. I was told on several occasions to vacate the kitchen! I could get used to this!

Creamy Chicken Spaghetti Casserole
Got this recipe from the Pioneer Woman. I've been needing a little comfort food. This fits the bill - creamy and delicious. I bought chicken that was already cut up. You could even use a rotisserie chicken.
