Spinach and Gorgonzola-Stuffed Potatoes
These Spinach and Gorgonzola-Stuffed Potatoes is a recipe from Yotam Ottolenghi's new cookbook, Simple, A Cookbook which came out last week. There are so many recipes in this book that I need to make soon. This was dinner for 2. What could be better than a twice baked potato, especially when it has spinach, gorgonzola and walnuts?!

Zucchini Marinated with Lemon & Mint
Zucchini is transformed when it’s sliced very thinly and it marinated in a lemony vinaigrette. You should assemble this dish at least four hours before you wish to serve it so that the zucchini has time to soak up the lemony marinade.

Crispy Roasted Broccoli with Tahini Sauce
My daughter Zoe has been doing the Bon Appétit, Basically 10 x 10 recipe, which is "Ten weeks, ten recipes that will make you a better cook". I'm not sure what week this is, but I'm very impressed with how she has been cooking. This Crispy Roasted Broccoli with Tahini Sauce looks really good. I didn't have any, but I will insist she makes it at our house soon.

Lemon Brown Rice with Garlic and Thyme
This Lemon Brown Rice with Garlic and Thyme is probably some of the best rice I've ever made. I actually made it a long time ago, but the photo was so bad I didn't post it. This photo isn't great either! This tangy brown rice dish can be served warm, or chilled as a salad or side.

Haricots Verts and White Beans with Shallot Vinaigrette
This recipe for Haricots Verts and White Beans with Shallot Vinaigrette is a wonderful combination of creamy white beans and slightly crunchy haricots verts, which makes an interesting textural mix, and it’s sturdy enough to stand at room temperature for several hours. I love anything that I can make ahead. Truth be told, I did not soak the beans overnight, I used canned beans! I was a bit pressed for time.
