White Beans with Broccoli Rabe and Lemon

I love broccoli rabe, which is also known as rapini, and I am always trying to find new ways to make it. This White Beans with Broccoli Rabe and Lemon recipe is really good. You fry the slices of lemon and garlic in olive oil before adding the broccoli and beans. The recipe calls for anchovies, but I didn't have any, so I left them out. I know some people will be outraged, but "tant pis", which means TOO BAD in French (and happens to be the name of our family cat!).

Emily’s English Roasted Potatoes

Ina Garten writes a new cookbook every other year and it is always released at the end of October. This year she is releasing it on October 6th. She also sends out a preview recipe, which I always make. This recipe for Emily's English Roasted Potatoes exceeded my expectations. Emily as in Emily Blunt the actress, who was on her show at one point and taught Ina this recipe. Anyone that knows me, knows I like crispy anything, especially potatoes. Well, this is the quintessential English roasted potato. I encourage you to get right on this!
