Sloppy Ottos
Anyone that knows me well, knows that I make the best sloppy joes ever. It's a fact. I have been cooking lunch at a school since 2004 and I made sloppy joes on the first day. I feel like I "hooked" them! Though over the years, many kids are dubious. They don't like the fact that there are little green bits (green peppers) in them. I wised up and cut them up VERY small. Anyway, this is going way off on a tangent! I saw this recipe for Sloppy Ottos, which is a different version. It involves sausage and sauerkraut and the pretzel bun, which is the new thing. I have to say, they were really good and my Dad approved.

Zucchini Tart with Whipped Feta and Thyme
Yesterday, I thought there was nothing for lunch, but rummaged through the fridge and freezer and found one zucchini and some puff pastry. I came up with this Zucchini Tart with Whipped Feta and Thyme. Whipped feta is all over the internet and decided to see what all the hype was about. It's very versatile, you can use it as a dip, spread it on sandwiches, or even on pizza. It's really delicious.

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...

Cheesy Pickle Chips
I made these Cheesy Pickle Chips and my family went crazy. It's so quick and easy to make and it's a Keto recipe. You just put some grated cheese in a muffin tin, put a pickle on the cheese, sprinkle with ranch seasoning (you could use your favorite season), top with more cheese, and bake for 10 minutes. As Ina would say, how easy is that!

The McCarthy Salad
The McCarthy Salad is almost as famous as the Polo Lounge where it was first served. Neil McCarthy was a regular guest at The Beverly Hills Hotel and captain of a local polo team in the 1940s. One day at the Polo Lounge he requested a very specific list of ingredients for a salad and the McCarthy salad was born. The recipe has remained untouched and has been a signature dish at the hotel ever since.
Here it is on the current menu.

Cheesy White Bean & Leek Casserole
I found this recipe for Cheesy White Bean & Leek Casserole on a package of dried beans when we lived in London in the ‘90s. As the Brits would say, this is cheap and cheerful! It’s actually one of our favorites. I haven’t made it in years and now will keep it in rotation.

Dates Stuffed with Goat Cheese and Pistachios
These Dates Stuffed with Goat Cheese and Pistachios is one of Evan Kleiman's signature appetizers. She recommends using Cypress Grove Purple Haze fresh goat cheese with a hint of lavender and fennel pollen. The tart tangy cheese pairs really well with the sweetness of the dates.

Cheesy White Bean & Sausage Tomato Bake
I made this Cheesy White Bean & Sausage Tomato Bake last night for dinner and it got rave reviews. The original recipe did not have any sausage. you can leave out the sausage and then it's paleo, sugar-free, low-carb, gluten-free, whole30, and vegetarian! It is so fast and easy to make and it's all done in one pan.
