Mushroom and Feta Pasta
This recipe was given to me by a friend in London. I used to make this Mushroom and Feta Pasta when we were first married for dinner parties. It's "cheap and cheerful" as we used to say. It's one of my all-time favorite pasta dishes. It's simple and really delicious.

Spinach-Artichoke Galette with Burrata and Caramelized Onions
This Spinach-Artichoke Galette with Burrata and Caramelized Onions was what happened last night. I doubled the amount of burrata, because why not? There is nothing better than a rustic galette. It's the second one this week, though this is a savory version. Your vegetarian friends will love you.

Asparagus, Ham and Gruyère Quiche in a Hash Brown Crust

Spaghetti with Goat Cheese, Mint and Peas
This Spaghetti With Goat Cheese, Peas & Mint is ultra-easy to prepare. The flavors of early spring are highlighted with peas that are smashed with fresh mint, lime zest and juice finished with creamy goat cheese. Most of the peas are smashed, but about a third are left whole for refreshing bursts. Both the zest and the juice add a hit of acid and bring out the nuances of the peas and mint.

Mushroom Carbonara
My family loves carbonara. It's one of the things I make often. This Mushroom Carbonara is the perfect midweek meal. Mushrooms take the place of the traditional bacon in this vegetarian carbonara recipe. A deep browning on the umami-packed mushrooms, coupled with garlic and shallots, takes this dish to a whole other level.

Radicchio and Citrus Salad with Burrata
My daughter Grace made this wonderful Radicchio and Citrus Salad with Burrata for my birthday dinner. It was so fresh and and delicious. The sweetness of the citrus is in perfect balance with the bitter radicchio. Grace made up her own dressing by adding honey, orange juice, zest, and chopped mint. I am beaming with pride! My girls know how to change recipes to suit their tastes.
