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.

Provençal Vegetable Gratin
Here is one way to use up some of your summer vegetable harvest. I actually did not place the sliced vegetables in compact upright rows due to the fact the tomatoes, zucchini and squash were all different sizes. I just cut them up and stirred it all together. You can do it either way, it all tasted the same!

Sour Cream Noodle Bake
My friend, Chris, dropped this casserole off for me with some of her home grown tomatoes and peppers. It couldn't have come at a better time. We are putting in a new kitchen and everything was torn out. Also, I was having my last chemo treatment! Yay!

Johnny Marzetti Casserole
I love recipes with a story. I have to say I have never heard of this casserole recipe. The dish originated in Columbus, Ohio, at Marzetti's, an Italian restaurant established in 1896 on Broad St. by an Italian immigrant named Teresa Marzetti. One of the dishes Marzetti offered her customers was a baked casserole of ground beef, cheddar cheese, tomato sauce, and noodles that she named for her brother-in-law Johnny. It was very popular during WWII. The original restaurant closed in 1942, but a second location, opened in 1919 remained in operation until Teresa Marzetti died in 1972. She was also popular for her salad dressings, which you can still buy today. This recipe is very similar to Sour Cream Noodle Bake that I posted recently, minus the sour cream.
